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 Laurence the Recluse of the Kiev Caves

St. Laurence the Recluse of the Kiev Caves (Feast Day - January 20)

Disdaining the vain glory of this world, Venerable Laurence lived in a dark cave and drove away the darkness of the passions through prayer and fasting, achieving communion with God. His incorrupt relics lie in the Far Caves of the Kiev Caves Lavra. Further biographical information is unknown. According to the results of a scientific investigation of his sacred relics, he died at the age of 40-50 years. He lived sometime in the 13th or 14th century.
