I hear you dear brother, we’re in Ecuador & it’s pretty dead here as well. Prayers for you and your family. I recommend Fr. Ripperger’s videos for further formation & persistence in your faith. The Lord is with you.

“I have learnt to pay attention to the inner world and to look in peoples eyes rather than their outward imperfections” wow… I needed that one

Two things made this documentary very moving for me; the smiles on these women's faces and the music.

" Every Person has their good and bad sides, but one must accept, understand , have compassion & finally learn to love the full person." Monastic Wisdom.

All Glory be to God! Beautiful souls, please pray for us living in the demonc world!

god does not exist. Demons do not either. But criminals like Putin do.

I live in Bosnia and Herzegovina (Republika Srpska) city Banja Luka. Some of these Orthodox nuns come here every year, sister Magdalena is the one who is contacting us though the phone. They have so many beautiful things that they are selling, so many good things that they are preparing in their monastery in Belarus and we are very happy to see them each year. Big hello to them from their Orthodox sisters

I am not of the Orthodox faith but have tremendous respect for your beautiful traditions and beliefs. This video demonstrates the beauty of Orthodoxy and much love and respect to you all. Thank you for this video as I am on a spiritual journey to learn more about Orthodoxy.

Honestly, I don't know what to say. I probably should have digested this documentary before I posted here. I was in tears for a great bit of this and I'm not quite sure why. Perhaps their honesty, or their openness, or their insightfulness, or all of that. Truly grace-filled people. May God bless them all.

I am looking forward to seeing the movie ❤️🥺

I am a Hindu and living as a monk in a Hindu monastery (ashram) and it is always a great inspiration to see monks and nuns in other faiths and traditions how they live a similar life. You are the light of this world. Thank you for this documentary, very inspiring

It is very interesting to see the type of monasticism you have at your Convent. Nothing like I've ever seen before. Thank you for the beautiful video, God bless you all

During COVID lock downs I watched videos from this monastery and found lots of comfort. Greetings from Montenegro:)))

Amazing, beautiful convent and church. Such a joy to see so many young ladies answering the call of the religious life.

What beautiful singing voice these nuns have got and what wonderful work they do with these people bless them kym

Sisters, WHO does your videography?!! Beautiful job ❤ Loved every minute if this. So many poinignt parts but there was one nun in particular that stated something that REALLY spoke to my heart, Nun Anfisa: "When we seperate ourselves from God, we limit our horizons greatly." I am a convert to Orthodoxy 8 yrs ago from many years (decades) as a Protestant. I'm in America. All of August has been terrible for me & it all boils down to my distancing myself from God. Not intentionally, but just slowly..."I'm so tired, I just want to go to bed, I'll skip prayer". "I'm so tired, I'm going to be late for work, I don't have time for prayer". Things like this. Before I know it, it's every day. I had a good conversation with my Vladyka yesterday and confession, now feeling renewed with great resolve. I realized something in speaking with him. That as a Protestant, I DEVOURED my Bible. LOVED reading my Bible, would just sit at Starbucks for hours every weekend and read & study it, going into the Hebrew and/or Greek. For NINE YEARS (1 as a catachumen, 8 as an Orthodox Christian) I haven't touched my Bible & that comes out of two attitudes. The 1st is "I found everything as a Protestant I had always been looking for (once coming to Orthodoxy), now I can rest." And the second is, I don't know how to read the bible.....as an Orthodox. I'm scared for lack of a better word. I know how to read it as a Protestant, but not as an Orthodox. This was a HUGE revelation for me. Sister Anfisa's commentary, all of it, I was on the edge of my seat with her. But the commentary about separating ourselves from God and we're limiting our horizons.... That is ALWAYS true. Thank you so much St Elisabeth's Convent for always sharing your world with those of us that live outside your walls. God is so good.

I think you can keep the beauty you learned from Protestant and still practice your faith journey in the Orthodox Church. If being a Protestant gave you a good discipline to read Gods Word, then you should continue to do so..🙏🏽❤️‍🔥

So clever and beautiful You all are. Thank You for letting us visit You. Gods blessings.

It's so easy for me to forget these days that human beings are meant to express this kind of love, dignity, and goodwill. Or even that we're capable of it. Sometimes I feel surrounded by cruelty, contempt, indifference abd selfishness, and that I am right down there with everyone else, wallowing in it. The people called into monastic life give back so much to the rest of us, and one of their kindest gifts is their example. That a person can own nothing and yet be endlessly wealthy in inner peace, virtue, and wisdom. I am glad there are such dedicated people in this world still.

So glad I came across this documentary. Very beautiful and inspiring. Thank you for the English subtitles.

Your video is one of the best documentaries of God’s work in action! Thank you to Saint Elizabeth’s convent and all the sisters who made this video possible. Your work is inspirational!!! 🙏🙏🙏🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️

This moved me to tears of joy, that there are such good people in the world, seemingly not of this world, who bring out the best in the least of us. May God bless you always, dear sisters, and I pray for the intercession of St. Elisabeth for your continued success in bringing joy to the world in the way that our Lord and Savior, Jesus the Christ did.

I pray for God to grant me angelic voice to sing to Him also, so beautiful 🙏🙏🥰🌺Your life is an inspiration 🙏🥰❤️thank you

Beautiful documentary! Thank you for what you are doing in this world

This documentary is amazing. " When we separate ourselves from God, We limit our horizons greatly. Just made my day. " Is there any type of work for online volunteers? I am from Pakistan and has been reading the blogs since last year. This would be a great honor for me to work with these amazing people.

Rev. Mother Seperation between orthodoxy and Catholicism is the greatest setback for conflicts like misery, enemity, revenge, homicide, rebellious and killings of human being in christian world. Still total lord church is struggling in between paganism, sadusees and pharasses in Judaism and Christianity 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

This was absolutely beautiful! I am very new to Orthodoxy in fact my wife and I are being baptized into the church this coming Saturday after being catechumen for only a year. I visited my first local monastery not too long ago in an effort to deliver the leftover remnants of our candles in our Parish to be melted back down and repurposed into new candles. I misunderstood what the abbess of the house had told me with regard to where to put them and she seemed to get very upset with me and told me it would be a long time before I was extended another invite to the monastery. It was very hurtful to be honest. Obviously I'm sure there is an etiquette involved in visiting monasteries I'm just very new and I did not know any better. I went to my church on the same day afterwards and fell to my knees in front of the altar in tears asking God to forgive me for any harm I may have done. I watched this video primarily because of that situation I wanted to know what this stuff was all about. Such a delight to feel in a sense restored in my spirit about the monastic life and the people there in. In the end I asked her to forgive me and told her that I understood and that the last thing I want to do is to cause anybody any trouble or any harm I just did not know any better. I know that Orthodoxy is very deep and steeped in very rich history and that I have a lot to learn. That being said this video really touched my heart and it is so beautiful and amazing to see all that you are doing with what God has gifted you with! Glory to God for all things!

I would love to live this life, but I absolutely am unable to get up that early.

I went to a Navajo US government boarding school that was similar. 6-14yo. 1971-80. Up at 6am everyday, and all scheduled day. Sundays and Wednesdays were religious. Needlessly, I dont practice any faiths. These people chose this life. 🤔

12:08 does anybody know the same of this prayer?

Look up the autobiography Within Heaven's Gates by Rebecca Springer 😇

I was raised Catholic but became born again follower of Jesus in 1993. I still love all the traditions and culture of religion but found a personal relationship with the ONE who loves me unconditionally. For me this was a game changer. I started to chip away at what people saw and became consumed with reformation of my heart, mind and soul. I trust ONE only as HE is worthy . Nobody intercedes for me I go straight to the source , the sacrificed lamb Jesus. The Holy Spirit must stay alive in us and He pops out when HE wants to and where He needs to. Miracles have happened and they were just for me I found. Other humans didn’t see it that way. I pray you all find the deep, personal, relationship only Christ can offer. The buildings are mind blowing beautiful but nothing compares to the brilliance of the Lord in our hearts. Amen ❤
