A quote from Saint Elizabeth the New Martyr, in a letter about a pilgrimage to the Holy Land, written to Queen Victoria of England, "It is such a dream to see all these places where Our Lord suffered for us and such an intense comfort to have been able to come to Jerusalem …. one can quietly pray and recall all that, as a little child, one already heard with such religious awe."
A quote about pilgrimage from Patriarch Daniel of Romania:""A pilgrimage is a spiritual event for all who participate in it with faith, piety, and love of God and the Church. In a place of pilgrimage, we find not only what the place has to offer, that is the Holy Church, relics, and divine services, but also what pilgrims bring with each other, namely their piety, zeal, patience, kindness, their way of being and meeting with God and with different people, some who have never known each other until that moment.""

As a Russian orthodox in California, I travel to every year to fort Ross on Memorial Day with the rest of our parish. We visit the cemetery, serve liturgy in the church and hang out by the beach.

I did that this year! Are you from Holy Ascension in Sacramento?
I went to the Holy Lands for Pascha this year! I was in the Church of the Resurrection for the First Anastasi! It was a blessing to receive the Holy Fire and be present for the miracle. God bless! I love your videos.

Wow! Absolutely epic. That would be an amazing trip to take!
Perfect timing Bro. Travelled 3hrs yesterday to clan gathering to the Wake of elderly aunt (almost completed her 100th year). Will attend her funeral today trying quietly to bring Christ to all these secular rellies. Lord Jesus Christ Son of God have mercy on me a sinner 💖🙏
Love you vids, Thank God, English, straight forward and clear! Thank God Thank You 🙏🌺☦️🌺🙏

Thanks so much!
Stumbled across your channel when I was wanting to learn more about Moses The Black. I’m Catholic and I think so much of the history of the early church and it’s heroes and martyrs has become somewhat of a side note to more contemporaries. This kind of saddens me since these people were so much closer to Christ in the apostolic succession and have so much insight and profound wisdom to pass on. Love the videos and have binging at times to catch up to your current uploads. I’m going to share your channel with others so keep up the great work!
I hope to see holy fire in church of the holy seplecure on day.

Same here
I take a 7 to 9 days every year to live like a pilgrim. I recomand everyone to try it and especially I think every man should go to Mount Athos if they can and just let their steps be guided by Theotokos.

Sounds like good advice here!
One pilgrimage I do each year is to the holy well of the 7th century monk St Seiriol at Penmon in Angelsey on his Feast Day. Pilgrimages don't need to be very far. On August 5th I'll be on a pilgrimage to the holy well in Oswestry, Shropshire, of Saint Oswald, King and Martyr, after we have a Liturgy in the parish church. It is a 10 minute walk from the church, and I live 2 minutes walk from the church. 🙂
Always enjoy the videos! Keep it up gents!

Emperor Constantine’s mother Helen was a pilgrim to the Holy Land. She actually found the Holy cross
Enjoyed the video! I hope to take a pilgrimage someday.

Is your first or middle name already that of a Saint? Which saints are commemorated on your birthday? You may already have a relationship with your patron Saint.
