Sv. Mamas bol pastier, pamätám si to z minulého roku na bohoslužbe. Dnes je streda, takže aj tak držíme pôst, ale jeho pamiatka mi pripomína, že aj v ťažkých časoch sa dá žiť jednoducho a verné. Manžel sa ma včera pýtal, či pečiem koláč na nedeľu, tak mu poviem, že dnes spomíname aj sv. Jána Pôstnika.

Святий Мамас справді був пастухом, як Marek написав. У нас у храмі теж про це згадували торік, і мені запам’яталося, як він молився серед овець. Сьогодні середа, тож піст і так, а я замість солодкого на вечерю просто зроблю кашу з грибами, як завжди в такі дні.

Yeah, I remember Father mentioning St. Mamas and his simple life with the sheep last year too. We're in the middle of a busy week with the girls' school stuff, so it's good the Wednesday fast is already on — I'll probably just do lentils tonight like Maria said instead of anything fancy.
