Sister in the Lord Pelagia!
Thank you for congratulating me, a sinner, on the occasion of the Nativity of Christ. And I congratulate you on the New Year. May the Lord help you to live in a new way, in renewal of spirit. What they say in your church - don’t be embarrassed, but be proud of yourself. For although you may not speak, you are constantly thinking idle, and your thoughts are the same words.
If you don’t have money, tell your priests directly that you don’t have money.
You should accept people with caution, and it is better not to accept strangers at all.
Peace to you and God's blessing.
