The much-anticipated English translation of the homilies and wonderous life of the Abbess of blessed memory, the venerable Gerondissa Makrina Vassopoulou.

"Her simple speech speaks to the hearts of all, for it comes from her authentic, holy experiences... A person of praxis and theoria, Gerondissa was rich in virtues, and she was and still is a guide of others toward Christ and a model of authentic spiritual person, when virtuous examples to follow are becoming increasingly difficult to find."

-Stavros Kourousis, Professor Emeritus, University of Athens
