Today we celebrate the first and only officially canonised Saint of Australia! Saint Nikanor Savic of Mount Athos, Australia and New Zealand was the former abbot of Hilandar Monastery on Mount Athos and came to Australia in January 1990 when he was already 88 years old to heal a schism within the Serbian Orthodox Church. Three months later, on March 4, 1990, the Holy Elder reposed in the Lord on Australian soil. Although Saint Paisios of Athos is the first Saint to have stepped foot in Australia, Saint Nikanor is the first officially canonised Saint to have reposed on our land, sanctifying this country. Miracles have been reported about the Elder as he has been seen walking around the monastery of Saint Savas in Elaine, Victoria, bathing the monastery in incense. He has also cured a man of cancer after praying to him, as well as many testimonies of people have been heard saying that his tomb gives of a special warmth. May he intercede for us always + #saint #nikanor #nicanor #nikanorsavic #serbia #serbian #serbianorthodox #australia #newzealand #athos #mountathos #hilandar #orthodox #saintoftheday (at Elaine, Victoria) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpV8HfTr83a/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Posted @withregram • @_emanuil ••• Верујте ми, кад сам прибегавао к Богу Спаситељу моме нисам сретао ништа жалосно, тешко и неподношљиво... Велику и неподношљиву жалост имао сам ја због тога што нисам могао наћи довољно повода да умрем ради љубави Христове. (Св. Симеон Нови Богослов) ••• . . . #православие #христианство #православље☦❤️ #православље #господь #duhovnepouke #црква #молитва #богородица #благовест #христосвоскресе #христос #crkva #pravoslavlje_terapija #serbianorthodox #church #krst #manastir #vjera #vera #nada #radost #ljubav #spasenje #molitva #вера #pravoslavlje #crkva https://www.instagram.com/p/CCySaCfpduq/?igshid=1pxksyxgyxd5e

I kad pada mrak, najveći manastir u Srbiji svetli. Manastir je posvećen Prohoru Pčinjskom, i deo njegovih mošti se i dalje nalazi u njemu. 

Divna & Melόdi - Stihire Pashe / Стихире Пасхе. Divna Ljubojevic is a Serbian singer who specialises in Byzantine Chant, and chants from the Eastern Orthodox Churches. Her voice is crystal clear, able to maintain the difficult melodic lines required for this kind of music. I believe this title means the Chant for Pascha, or Easter. (Only recently did I realise that the word “Pascha” has Hebrew roots, which is unsurprising, as this feast was based on Pesach).
