All Saints of North America
(The “mainland” is what Newfoundlanders call the rest of Canada.)
I spent a wonderful week up in Ontario with some old friends and many new ones! It was a busy but very blessed week filled with speaking engagements, church services and loads of good conversations in between.
Unfortunately, I was a little too busy to take any photos so I don’t have a lot of images to share (the ones in this post are borrowed from online). But I do have one video from a talk I did in London for a fundraiser for Holy Trinity Monastery in Michigan (thanks to the technical skills of my fellow Newfie). The theme was Gerontissa Macrina: A Contemporary Mother of the Church. It was the talk I looked most forward to because it was a topic so close to my heart, so inspiring; it was just stories and information from Gerontissa’s book Logia Kardias. It’s linked below if you’re interested. (The first 50 seconds or so are in Greek but the rest is in English).
The three-part talks I gave in Hamilton for All Saints of North America OCA parish will be sold as a DVD set in the parish bookstore (Desert Wisdom) at a later date.

And I’d just like to thank everyone who showed me so much love and hospitality while I was in Ontario: Truly, Christians love one another and are known by their love.
To those of you who said you will one day visit us in Newfoundland: we await you. And to those who expressed a desire to correspond with me through e-mail I would gladly answer any questions you have or at least point you in the direction of someone more qualified if need be.

To those on the New Calendar I wish you good strength for the Nativity fast and ask your prayers in return!
