Fasting is far more than simply abstaining from food; it is a profound act of training for the soul. By denying our bodies simple pleasures or extra portions, we actively learn that we can say "no" to our physical urges, even when we are hungry. This practice builds a specific kind of willpower—always supported by the Grace of God—that proves invaluable when we face stronger challenges, such as the struggle with lust.

A Miraculous Visit of Saint Paisios In this powerful scene from a Greek television series, a desperate young man comes to Saint Paisios, begging him to pray for his father, who has a tumor on his neck “as big as an orange.” The saint gently promises, “I will come and visit him.” The young man returns home and tells his mother that the elder is coming. Meanwhile, his gravely ill father, lying in bed, is suddenly surrounded by an intense, bright light. When it fades, he sits up and asks his family, “Did you offer him something? You should have offered the monk some food before he left. He was just here. He made the sign of the cross on my neck.” The son and mother, who saw no one enter, are stunned. When the father turns his head, they all see it: the large tumor has completely vanished.

Mateja Kežman, a man who never hid his Eastern Orthodox Christian faith. Throughout his career, he openly confessed Christ, spoke proudly about the importance of God in his life, and carried himself as a witness to the Orthodox faith both on and off the pitch. He wore the Orthodox Cross proudly, defended Christian values publicly, and remained deeply connected to the traditions and spirituality of the Serbian Orthodox Church. For many Orthodox Christians, he became an example of how a man can live in the public eye yet still boldly glorify God without shame.

Pope Francis was maybe “the greatest missionary for Orthodoxy.” What do we mean by that? By openly embracing and promoting so many heretical ideas and actions, this Pope may have caused more people than ever to start questioning 'Roman Catholicism' and seek the truth in the Orthodox Church.

On March 24, 1999, NATO launched an illegal bombing campaign against Serbia that lasted for 78 days, without a UN mandate. During this time, approximately 500 civilians were killed, including 81 children. In addition to the destruction of 19 hospitals, people in Serbia continue to suffer from cancer today, 26 years later, due to the depleted uranium ammunition used by NATO.
