May the Lord protect these young men at the border. It is good that Metropolitan Panteleimon blessed them and wished God's enlightenment - without this, there is no way to cope with such a service.

God bless these new guys. It is nice that Bishop Panteleimon personally prayed for the Agiasmos and promised them divine light. This is the most important thing in such a difficult service. May God protect them at the border.

I agree, Ludmila. Without God's blessing, such a service on the border is really difficult. It is good that Metropolitan Panteleimon came in person and did not just send someone. Let's pray that the boys return home healthy.

Богдан Коваленко

It is good that Bishop Panteleimon himself came and blessed these boys personally, and did not just send a representative. Service at the border is not a joke, it is difficult without God's help. Let's pray that the Lord will protect them.

It is good that Metropolitan Panteleimon personally went and performed the agiasmosis instead of sending someone else. These boys at the border really have a hard job, without God's help there is no way. May God protect them.

It's good that Metropolitan Pantelimon personally came to welcome and talk to these newly arrived boys. The job at the border is not easy at all, especially now in the summer with so much heat and people. May God keep them healthy and clear minded.

I agree, Ivan. The personal presence of the bishop always gives weight. These guys really have a hard time, especially summers along the border - may God give them strength and reason every day.
