Bun, frate. I have a place cum a zis episcopul că omul unit cu Dumuşune cinstește pe cel harnic și pe cel credincios care-și face bine găirea. Biserica asta din Podolenii de Sus pare acum cu totul alta după ce au sfințit și pictura și casa prajnicală. Mulțumesc lui Dumuşno pentru austite de zile de Liturghie în aer liber.

It is nice what the bishop says about the man who is united with God and honors him who works right. In my village, we also had the church repainted last year, and then something else appeared. Thank God they finished the house for the festival.

And the church from our village in Crete, last year we repainted the image of the Virgin Mary on the wall and it was like new. Nice what the bishop says about the man who honors the industrious and the faithful. Thank God for days like this.
