The services at the Dormition church in Voulismeni sound lovely. I always look forward to the Small Paraklesis on Monday evenings myself. Did many people come out for the Holy Unction on Tuesday?

Kod nas u Banjaluci paraklis počinje malo ranije, ali mi je drago što je vladika Gerasimos služio i Veliki i Mali. U Voulismeni je sigurno bilo lijepo, a koliko je ljudi bilo na jeleosju u utorak? Kod nas obično dođe dosta starijih.

Ευχαριστούμε για την είδηση. Στη Βουλισμένη ο Μητροπολίτης Γεράσιμος πάντα κάνει τις ακολουθίες με ησυχία και τάξη, ιδιαίτερα τον Μικρό Παρακλητικό Κανόνα που μου αρέσει πιο πολύ. Πόσοι περίπου πήγαν στο Ευχέλαιο την Τρίτη; Εδώ συνήθως μαζεύονται οι γιαγιάδες και μένουν μέχρι τέλους.

The turnout for Holy Unction was pretty solid, maybe forty or fifty people even on a weekday evening. I always feel the Small Paraklesis sets a good tone for the whole Dormition fast. Do you usually make it to the one at your own parish on Mondays?

У нас в Воронеже на Успенский пост тоже поют оба параклисиса, но Малый особенно душевно выходит по понедельникам. В статье написано, что владыка Герасимос служил и Великий, и потом елеосвящение — интересно, сколько человек пришло в тот вторник в Вулисмени? У нас обычно бабушки и несколько мам с детьми.

La Voulismeni am fost și eu acum doi ani la un Paraclis Mic seara și mi-a plăcut liniștea din biserică. Mă bucur că episcopul Gerasimos a slujit și Marele și apoi Sfântul Maslu. Câți au venit marți la Maslu, Matthew? La noi în Constanța vin mai ales bătrânii, ca peste tot.
