Message from Metropolitan Alexios
My Beloved Ones,I greet you with love and joy in the name of our Risen Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! Χριστὸς ἀνέστη! Christ is Risen! This Sunday, we are blessed to remember a great saint of Orthodoxy, one who was important to the growth of monasticism throughout the world.
St. Pachomios the Great was born near the end of the 3rd century, in Egypt. The son of pagan parents, he found himself forced into serving in the Roman army. New recruits who were kidnapped from their homes were often lodged, at first, in a prison. It was in this prison that St. Pachomios first discovered the love of Christ, when he saw the behavior of those Christians who came and brought food and drink for the new recruits. Moved by their selflessness, St. Pachomios vowed that after ending his military service (during which he never used a weapon), he would be baptized, and then dedicate his life to Christ.
