May God bless the visit of Patriarch Kirill to Wallam. May his days there be filled with peace surrounded by nature and prayer.

Good to see Patriarch Kirill back on Valaam. That monastery always seems to bring a real sense of peace, especially with the lake and the forests around it. Praying his time there is quiet and fruitful.

I am glad to see that Patriarch Kirill visited Valaam again. That monastery with the lake and the surrounding woods always calms me down when I remember it from the photos. May he have a really peaceful time there.

God bless you, Bishara. The Patriarch's visit to Al-Walam always gives us a feeling of calm, especially when he spends time in prayer and nature there. Have you ever visited the monastery yourself?

Yes, Valaam does have that quiet calm, especially early in the morning when the mist is still on the water. I remember hiking the forest paths there a few years back and feeling properly reset afterwards. Hope his stay brings the same rest to him.
