They are off to Mount Athos

It is just after 5AM here in Thessaloniki and I just saw Christopher, Fr. Nicholas, and Gabriel off in the taxi to meet Scott and Ethan at the bus station. They are now on their way to Mount Athos: tired, but excited. Fr. asked me to give his greetings to everyone, especially our family back home at St. Herman's. He was very glad to hear the report Stephen left us which I got late last night, that the church had not burned down and all was fine. He said he knew it would be, and to tell everyone that he will have us all in his prayers as they journey to that holy place.

Signing off and going back to bed...... it is still a bit warmish outside, but feels pretty good, Macrina
