Thanks so much for posting this. I love Met. Anthony's books on prayer and it is a great blessing to hear and see him speaking so pastorally.

You are very welcome.

I feel the same way about Met Kallistos {Ware).

I remember the time I was in a service he presided over. When he came to the center of the ambo to bless the flock, I broke out into tears. I had never experienced such pastoral love and concern before. His talks are very edifying, too.

It is easy to forget the Lord has provided His flock with wonderful, holy under-shepherds such as these.

thanks again for stopping by.
