Praise for Fr. John Savvas Romanides, of blessed memory
By James Kelley | September 11, 2008
May your memory be eternal,
Most honored and holy noetic athlete,
Protopresbyter John Savvas Romanides.
Your memory is ever-blessed.
May we have a joyous meeting when we see each other in glory
At the Lord’s Heavenly Altar!
Memory eternal!
Memory eternal!
Memory eternal!
Fr. John Romanides has restated the central teachings which the Holy Fathers learned through lives of noetic martyrdom. Fr. John gave his life to the Church, and he followed the interior life of hesychia, as many of his closest associates tell us. His assiduous application of the Jesus prayer preceded his recovery from stroke-induced paralysis late in life.
As Orthodox we stridently proclaim Fr. John to be–
New Defender of the Church of Christ against the errors of the Franco-Latins.
Topics: Hesychia, Prayer, Romanides, Theosis, Truth |
