I wish I could go to the great evening on Saturday with the Orthoclasia, especially since Father Maximus is the one who presides and preaches. The program is complete and organized, may God bless them.

Olivier Moreau

The program is busy, especially with the agripnia on Friday evening and the euchelaion on Saturday morning. I hope that Father Maximos will preach something simple and concrete as Father Paisios liked to do. If anyone goes there on Saturday evening, let them light a candle for us in Koutres.

I would like to hear Father Maxim on Saturday evening at vespers. I heard that his sermon is always simple, as St. Paisius used to say - without big words, but goes straight to the heart. If someone is there, please light a candle for me in Kutra.

Thanks for this detailed program. I especially liked that Father Maximos will be there on Saturday evening and he will also give the sermon - his words are always simple and to the heart, as St. Paisios loved. If someone goes, let them light a candle for me too.

Cécile Girard

Yes, the program is dense, especially after the agripnia on Friday. I also hope that Father Maximos will keep his homily down to earth, like Saint Paisios who often spoke about gardening and the little things of everyday life. If I arrive Saturday evening, I will remember to light this candle for you in Koutres.

I was also thinking of going to dinner on Saturday evening. Father Maximus always speaks to the heart. But this year my work is late, so if I can finish early, we will go together.

Maya, I like Father Maximus too, especially when he speaks simply. Last year I went to Kutres and his preaching really touched my heart. If you go, tell me if we can light a candle together.
