376. На все нужно испрашивать благословения. О состоянии здоровья Старца

Most honorable mother of Treasurer Eliconidas in the Lord! I received two letters from you. Thank God that it is quiet in your monastery and things are in good order. I bow to Mother Abbess Eulalia. May God grant you to always live in peace and harmony - I prayerfully wish for this. And St. David said: “Behold, whatever is good or whatever is good, let the brethren live together,” that is, in peace. You, mother of the treasurer, try to be more respectful to Mother Superior and ask her blessing for everything. And may the God of peace be with you. I don’t hear anything about our Lord, when he will come to Kaluga or whether he has already arrived. In Shamordino, as in our monastery, as well as in our surroundings, it is still quiet. And only God knows what will happen. My health is weak. About two weeks ago I received unction, and after that I felt better. But I am very afraid of the cold and cannot go out into the air. Pray for me, a sinner. Asking for Mother Superior Eulalia, and for you, the treasurer, and for your entire monastery, peace and God's blessing, I remain with sincere goodwill. Take care of the girls as much as possible. Now you can’t refuse this. God bless M. Dositheus. Let him stay with you as much as possible. You might be interested in:
