Learn about a new initiative from His Eminence Metropolitan PHILIP to start two new women's monsteries in North America. We talk with Project Director Fr. John Anderson.
John interviews Dr. Chrissi Hart, author who wrote of the story of the miraculous events surrounding how the very first icon of the Mother of God, painted by the Evangelist Luke himself, moved from the emperor’s palace in Constantinople to a new home on the island of Cyprus. A wonderful book for children published by Conciliar Press. And as a special treat, at the end of the interview, Chrissi reads her book for us!
