Happy name day Father Spyridon! Thank you for your zeal for Orthodoxy.

Never heard of him until today... Thanks for sharing!

That icon of St. Spyridon caring for his sheep touches me deeply. Thank you for sharing. ❤️☦️

[@juliushausmann6506]

Gradeful for your wisdom Father

[@churchether]

I would like to become orthodox, but there is little to no community of this here in Norway, especially north Norway. I was baptized protestant, but in my heart I feel orthodox.

[@paulgentile1024]

Get as much reading material on the faith as possible.and get the Orthodox Christian study Bible !!.. and most importantly as you read The study Bible pray.. God will help you on your journey

Stunningly beautiful message, Father. Thank you. I’m ashamed I knew almost nothing about this remarkable saint. I can hardly wait to venerate him on his feast day.

[@rusk4757]

This year I went on a pilgrimage to the island of Kerkyra (Corfu) with my Parish. We were on St. Spyridon's memorial day in the Church of St. Spyridon, where his holy, incorrupt body is kept. When we venerated his holy relics after the Divine Liturgy and I approached his grave, I felt such a grace from God as never before. I could literally feel a healing and comforting power emanating from his holy relics. The rest of the pilgrimage unexpectedly went very smoothly, and we had very rare opportunities to talk to abbots from other monasteries on this island (they usually don't come out of their cells) and get spiritual advice from them and hold supplication services there and see the miraculous icons worship. Saint Spyridon truly blessed this pilgrimage. Holy Spyridon, pray for us!❤️

Thank you Father, I was mesmerized by your stories and knowledge of St. Spyiridon, fascinating…enjoyed particularly the story of the Beggar … Bless you 🙏

[@butterflyeffectexperiment530]

Beautiful. Thank you. I had not learned of his story before, but his name has always intrigued me. Thank you.

[@constancedemmas423]

Fr Spyridon, I love to see you speaking with such joy of the life of this precious saint. I appreciated especially your telling me that St Spyridon does not tolerate pride. Something I fall into regrettably regularly in either thought word or deed . I keep a humble little icon of this Saint at my work desk to remind me now. I also was very very blessed to visit the Saint in Corfu when on a family reunion 6-7 years ago . Many years / blessed name day to you this month ! St Spyridon pray for us !

[@thenarrowdoor7]

I have dreamed last night that the icon of saint spyridon was on the table and a bottle of water on that icon , and when i drink it all i put it back on the icon and it refills alone ,i can see the bottle becomee full again from the bottom up , lord have mercy on me a sinner ☦️

All praise, glory & thanks be to God for our beloved St Spyridon & all our Saints, whom we are blessed to have in every age & generation & in whom the Holy Spirit dwells & the Incarnation continues! May they pray for us, poor sinners, the unworthy ones.

[@servantdynasty77]

That is incredible! I just started watching you a few weeks ago, and I thought that was your name, Father Spyriden! Anyway, I'm a Colonel, military pilot/airline pilot, but ultimately I am a fire brimstone preacher. I came up Roman Catholic and drifted into the prosperity Gospel, and now I'm finally preaching the Truth and God is using me to drag people away from today's deception, or as it says in Jude 1:23, "Rescue others by snatching them out of the Flames of Judgment!" Jude 1:23 Nice to meet you!

[@nikehike]

Thank you father for these amazing videos. Hopefully you will make videos of more Saints and enlighten us all. God bless you.

[@stellajacovides9676]

Thank you Father for all the excellent inspired wisdom and information you present so lovingly and boldly . I love Orthodox and non Orthodox deeply . I mourn for the Many devout and pious Protestants that are without the tremendous presence of the Church Fathers in their faith . I pray that all people will give Orthodoxy a “ taste .” Many do not know the the Orthodox Church . Please find an “ alive “ Orthodox Church .This division amongst Christians is a tragedy . Lord have mercy .

O GOD, merciful Father, that despisest not the sighing of a contrite heart, nor the desire of such as be sorrowful: Mercifully assist our prayers that we make before thee in all our troubles and adversities, whensoever they oppress us; and graciously hear us, that those evils, which the craft and subtilty of the devil or man worketh against us, be brought to nought, and by the providence of thy goodness they may be dispersed; that we thy servants, being hurt by no persecutions, may evermore give thanks unto thee in thy holy Church; through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Χριστός Ανέστη my brother in Christ! I don't know if you remember me, but I was one of the first to comment on your videos when you started this beautiful channel!! I am (19 y/o) trying to search and seek God's love and the prayer of healing. My brother I am a chanter at my church, and sorry to bother you, I know you are busy with all different services for the people, but please help and pray for me. I have been trying to pray for the healing of my ears. I woke up and my hearing sounded robotic and muffled, and damaged. When I am chanting all I hear are weird notes out of my left ear and my family and friends all sound weird as well. I have been praying so hard so God can grant me it clear but it's not working. I can't stand hearing the world like this, all the healer saints and wonder workers I have prayed to as well. Please brother if you can, keep me in your prayers tonight, as I keep you in mine, I have faith that God will listen to you. Thank you so much brother, it is amazing to see this channel grow, I can't wait to hear it normally when the time is right through the will of God! Much Love, Thank You!

[@WorldView22]

Fr. Spyridon, I think that it is important to mention the miracle St. Spyridon performed at the I Ecumenical Council using a clay brick, instead of solely trying to convince the heretics by verbal arguments, to demonstrate the Holy Trinity: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Another important fact to mention would be the double resurrection he performed of a mother and her child. Την ευχή σας.

Father or anyone who might be eligible to give an answer. If St.Paul said after death comes the judgment how can the spirit of the Great Saint Spyridon roam the city and pray for others?

[@abelovedchildofgod7383]

But father the eastern and the western church were united as one for a thousand year How could the Holy Spirit wouldn't protect the roman catholic church which is the apostolic church and leave them to error?

Unless the admiral had mal-intent (his heart desired to stir up trouble), his death shouldn’t be viewed definitively as a divine judgement. Interesting story nonetheless. Thanks for telling us about St. Spyridon

[@stutterstudios4731]

@Gluten tag Van Helsing one should not simply follow an elder because they’re an elder. The thinking of the elder needs to be coherent as well. It is honorable that you appreciate father and were coming to his defense. May God bless us both, even though you disagree with my comment.

[@stutterstudios4731]

@Gluten tag Van Helsing I will try to be more humble/honest, & appreciate you dialoguing with me. Would you say that father was correct in saying that the Catholic admiral died because of divine judgment? I do see that father included that story to bolster St. Spyridon as a defender of Orthodoxy, though it seemed a bit harsh. I wasn’t trying to personally attack father, & God appreciates you defending him.

[@stutterstudios4731]

@Gluten tag Van Helsing ahh ok, that’s fair. God Bless brother, and thanks for your thoughts on this issue.

[@maciejszary7031]

Praised be Jesus I like your preeching but you seem to have some problem with The Catholic Church. I am the Catholic and I can assure you we also have great saints with our church. Read about ST Vincent, father Pio, St Francisco and many many more. Also none of them did any charm to others after ones death. Uncorrupted bodies are also bread and butter in the CC. Just check Andrzej Bobola or mentioned already fr Pio and plenty others God bless you

Icons of "saint" Spyridon, and he is celebrated?! First commandment: I AM THE LORD YOUR GOD. YOU SHALL NOT HAVE STRANGE GODS BEFORE ME. Answer me to this comment pls...we need to talk.

[@ameliacampbell5246]

Hello! We do not put Saints above God. Rather, the Saints and the lives of the Saints help bring people to God in faith and love. They help us remember faith in God always, no matter the circumstances and we celebrate the lives of the Saints because of this and the examples they leave behind for us in the lives they lead. Again, we do not put Saints above God, but they help us in our faith to be closer to God. I hope this helps! Have a lovely day!🙏☦️💕

[@v1art24]

@@ameliacampbell5246 Saints on earth? This is a sinners world how can be someone Saint? To become a Saint, our bodies also need to be replaced to become Holy..to become a Saint...Saints are in Heaven, not here. People like Spyridon, you and me...we are believers. We are following God, but we are not Saints therefore we can not celebrate a person who is gonna die just like you and me... Kissing the icons, even kissing the priest hands...or kissing the metal cross...or praying to Saint Mary when the Bible clearly says not to bow or pray to icons or any other God before him. Religion is fake..all religion is fake. The only religion which is not fake is having a relationship with God and Jesus directly, as a personal relationship just like the relationship we have with our parents.
