Dear Readers and Supporters: Last March I told you about an anonymous long time friend and supporter of this ministry who fell on hard times, and a generous portion of you volunteered to help her financially to prevent her eviction and car repossession. Unfortunately, once again she and her child are in a similar difficult position, though a little bit worse. I hate to see this happen to her and not try to help in any way. So if once again you can help out with a financial contribution, it would be greatly appreciated. You can contribute to her through the link below. My hope is that we can raise around $3000. Thank you.

Oikos to Saint Euphrosynos the Cook


Oikos to St. Euphrosynos the Cook
 
You showed yourself to be, an inviolate ascetic, O Euphrosynos the friend of the Creator; having shined with humility and obedience, temperance, nepsis and prayer, as the luminously bright sun, you illuminate the faithful who cry out:

Rejoice, adornment of solitaries;
Rejoice, boast of cooks.
Rejoice, gardener of perfect character;
Rejoice, inheritor of the garden of grace.
Rejoice, apple paired and sweet, delivered sacredly;
Rejoice, lily most beautiful, enjoyed abundantly.
Rejoice, for showing yourself to be a horn of humility;
Rejoice, for you are the divine honor of monastics.
Rejoice, revered vessel of the Spirit;
Rejoice, bright tablet of prudence.
Rejoice, giver of divinely-given delights;
Rejoice, deliverer from arduous distress.
Rejoice, blessed Euphrosynos.
