A night vigil in honour of St Theodot and the 7 virgin Martyrs

The faithful people from the monastery requested Abbot father Gavril to serve an all night vigil on the night on Friday the 30th of May when the Holy Church celebrates the memory of St. Theodot and the 7 virgin martyrs.
In the teaching of the Eulogy that was read, Father Gavril pointed out the need of a spiritual father, who, before all, should have good deeds so through his purified heart and illuminated mind he can recognise, accept and lead his spiritual child in the spiritual life and, at the end, take him/her, alive in front of the face of the Living God in the Heavenly Kingdom. That is our real homeland, from which the will of the spiritual father, as well as the honesty of the spiritual child, must work together. The spiritual child must have trust and must be obedient and have on mind that everything he/she hears from him as advice, should be received as it were God’s voice and do it. In its opposite, if we argue, dispute and look for justification, then we become fighters against God.
During the Holy Liturgy the faithful people partook in the Holy Mysteries of Christ.
