Fr. Timothy Curren (verified owner) –
A wonderful resource for honoring the memory of this great saint of the 20th century. I’m very grateful for this publication, however it is a pity that the English translation of the hymns are not metered to the melodies of the Greek original, it would make it much more handy for liturgical use. Also I would have appreciated the inclusion of the Paraklesis and Akathist contained in the Greek version.
