Weekly Update - May 8

CHRIST IS RISEN! INDEED HE IS RISEN!

 

QUOTE OF THE WEEK

“The devil does not hunt after those who are lost; he hunts after those who are aware, those who are close to God. He takes from them trust in God and begins to afflict them with self-assurance, logic, thinking, criticism. Therefore we should not trust our logical minds.”

+ Saint Paisios of Mt. Athos +
