I have an amazing little booklet available I wanted to offer to my readers for purchase which would make especially great reading for Great Lent. Recently I was commissioned to translate some beneficial writings of Righteous Alexei Mechev, but it didn't fall through and I was left with a bunch of booklets I would like to now sell instead of counting my losses. Please order today!
The photos above depict some of the artillery brought to Great Lavra Monastery on Mount Athos in 1821 for the monks defense against the Ottomans. The photo above is one of the cannons, and below are swords and guns.
