I was recently commissioned to translate some profound and inspiring works by our Righteous Father Alexei Mechev, which I put together in a booklet. Unfortunately, after printing 500 copies, circumstances changed and the one who commissioned the work has been hospitalized and called off the purchase. Since I am at an unforeseen personal loss with this, I wanted to make these never before translated texts available to my followers for only $11.95 a copy, which includes shipping and handling in the United States (orders outside the US, please use a pay button towards the bottom of this page and include $5 for a total of $16.95). I would like to sell all of these as quick as possible, and it would be great reading material for the lenten season. As an added incentive, for the first 50 people who order, I will also offer a never before published text by Fr. John Romanides titled "The Canon and the Inspiration of the Holy Scripture" free of charge.

Saint Euthymius the Schemamonk of the Kiev Caves

St. Euthymius the Schemamonk of the Kiev Caves (Feast Day - January 20)

Venerable Euthymius the Schemamonk of the Kiev Caves imposed upon himself a vow of silence, opening his mouth only for church services and for prayer. The silent schemamonk did not eat anything cooked with fire and ate only herbs. He was buried in the Far Caves of Saint Theodosius at the Kiev Caves Lavra probably in the fourteenth century. Now he enjoys the food of paradise and with angels he silently praises God and prays for us. According to the results of biochemical testing, he died at the age of 30-40 years.
