That sounds like a good program. I would like to know if the recording of that lecture will then be available online, because I cannot get to Greece from Olomouc. Saint Sophronius is very important to me, I always have his books on my bedside table.

The three days in Poseidi sounds good. Saint Sophronios is one of the saints who speak directly to the heart, especially when Metropolitan Ierotheos speaks about him. I'll try to go if I get some time off work, but if the talk comes online afterwards I'll definitely check it out.

The three days in Poseidi sounds good. Metropolitan Ierotheos always speaks clearly and deeply about Saint Sophronius, I remember reading his "See Christ" last year. If the speech comes out online later, I will definitely watch it, because I will hardly be able to catch up from Cyprus.

The book you mention is good, "See Christ" I also have and I am still leafing through it. I hope that the speech will be published online, because it will be difficult for me to go down to Poseidi from Thessaloniki. Have you read anything else by Agios Sophronios lately?

Νίκη Βασιλείου

Yes, "See Christ" is one of the strongest, I read it every now and then. I haven't read anything new lately, but We Will See God is something I revisit often. If the speech comes out online I will say it here, don't bother going down to Poseidi.
