Holy Trinity Monastery - Bright Tuesday



Home \| Bookstore \| Icon Studio \| Seminary

Faith and love which are gifts of the Holy Spirit are such great and powerful means that a person who has them can easily, and with joy and consolation, go the way Jesus Christ went. Besides this, the Holy Spirit gives man the power to resist the delusions of the world so that although he makes use of earthly good, yet he uses them as a temporary visitor, without attaching his heart to them. But a man who has not got the Holy Spirit, despite all his learning and prudence, is always more or less a slave and worshipper of the world.

St. Innocent of Alaska

God is a fire that warms and kindles the heart and inward parts. Hence, if we feel in our hearts the cold which comes from the devil - for the devil is cold - let us call on the Lord. He will come to warm our hearts with perfect love, not only for Him but also for our neighbor, and the cold of him who hates the good will flee before the heat of His countenance.

St. Seraphim of Sarov

Bright Tuesday

On Tuesday of Bright Week we had the honor of having His Eminence Metropolitan Hilarion and His Grace Bishop Gabriel serve at Holy Trinity Monastery to the joy of the brotherhood and the people present. Below are a selection of photos from the services on that day.
