I am happy for Sister Abbess. Diveevo is a place that has kept the tradition of Saint Seraphim alive for so many years, worthy of the honor.

Παναγιώτης Νικολαΐδης

I agree, Katerina. Diveevo keeps alive not only the memory of Saint Seraphim but also the daily monastic life you see when you go there. The abbess worked for years for this, she deserves it. When was the last time you went?

Αντώνης Λαμπρόπουλος

I agree, Katerina. Diveevo keeps alive the tradition of Saint Seraphim, and the abbess has supported it with great patience over the years. I went for the last time three years ago with my wife and I still remember the silence in the monastery after vespers. How do you see it from Cyprus?

Αντώνης Κωνσταντίνου

Yes, the quiet after vespers is one of the things that stays. I went five years ago and I still remember how the soil smelled on the path to the well of St. Seraphim. From Thessaloniki I see that the abbess did a great job, but tell me, how is Diveevo now after the last repairs?
