They were ascetics, ruthless to themselves, yet so human, so immensely compassionate not only to the needs of men, but also to their frailty and their sins... Through the prayers of Abba Anthony the Great and of all our holy fathers, Lord Jesus Christ our God have mercy on us and save us. Amen
	Concepts create idols; only wonder grasps anything. - St. Gregory of Nyssa
