653. Благодари Бога, что в монастыре встретили ласково

I received your letter dated September 4th. Thank God that you were generally greeted kindly at the Kashira Monastery. You say you can live for now. And thank the Lord for this great mercy. If it’s convenient, you can come to Optina during Christmas time. May the Lord help you to work with children. I prayerfully wish God's mercy to M. Emilia and Kapitolina Nechaeva. I am sending you a recipe for headaches. Get him off. From the first aid kit it will be given to you. Asking for peace and God's blessing on you, I remain with sincere goodwill.
