Thanks for the message. I will write down the address — G. Hennimatá 5, because I want to go to this farm on August 14. In our church, they also always serve all-night service on the Assumption, but it is interesting to visit the Athos methos.

Thanks for the exact address, G. Gennimata 5 and Ag. Ieronymou Simonopetritou. I've been to Simonos Petra's Metochi before and the vigil there is really long and concentrated - until 1:15 a.m. is fine. I'll think about going there on August 14th, as here in Berlin the celebration falls on a Friday evening.
