Every day you provide your bodies with good to keep them from failing. In the same way your good works should be the daily nourishment of your hearts. Your bodies are fed with food and your spirits with good works. You aren't to deny your soul, which is going to live forever, what you grant to your body, which is going to die.
St. Gregory the Great
Dormition
On the Feast of the Dormition, Holy Trinity Monastery celebrated with two liturgies; one in English at the chapel of Dormition in the cemetery and one in Slavonic in the main cathedral. Both were attended by many pilgrims. After the service in the main cathedral there was a procession with the Pochaev icon of the Mother of God to the cemetery chapel where a moleben was served.
