Monthly Message from Fr. Ghassan - November/December 2025

Sayings of Saint Isaac the Syrian: Prayer + Give me a contrite heart and the strength to let acceptable tears flow from my eyes, illuminating my heart with pure prayer. If you are tempted to neglect your prayers and fall asleep, don't give in to yourself... Always force yourself to pray at night and add psalms to it. Prayer is one thing, and contemplation of prayer is another. Likewise, prayer and contemplation influence each other. Prayer is like sowing, and contemplation is the ripening of the harvest. + Constantly immerse yourself in the divine books and the lives of the saints, because constant contemplation of them makes prayer easier for you. Prayer is the flight of our mind to God. Indeed, it is a lofty act, transcendent above all virtues, and a virtue more noble than all other works. Purity is not acquired or found through extensive knowledge and various books, but rather through attentiveness to prayer.

Saint of the Month - November/December 2025 - St Menas and St Eleutherius

The Holy Great Martyr Menas (Mēnás), an Egyptian by birth, was a military officer and served in the Kotyaeion region of Phrygia under the centurion Firmilian during the reign of Emperors Diocletian (284-305) and Maximian (305-311). He was praised and admired for his bravery in battle, his patience, and his self-discipline. In 298, the Emperors published an edict ordering everyone to worship the idols. Those serving in the Legions were ordered to capture and persecute Christians. As soon as Saint Menas heard this impious decree he threw down his soldier’s belt (a sign of military rank) and withdrew to a mountain above Kotyaeion, where he lived an ascetical life of fasting and prayer. He spent a long time in the wilderness, suffering great privation and laboring in feats of prayer, fasting, and nocturnal vigils. Thus, the Saint purified himself of every passion of soul and body.
