 FORWARD!

Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

☩ Saint Paul (Philippians 3:13-14)

In the spirit of Saint Paul, the Apostle to the Nations, we are building a monastery that brings the Athonite tradition to life in the English language.
