On the Word to St. Silouan, “Keep Thy Mind in Hell and Despair Not”
Jesse Dominick
On the Word to St. Silouan, “Keep Thy Mind in Hell and Despair Not”The path to humility is encapsulated in the advice that St. Silouan heard from God in his heart: “Keep thy mind in Hell and despair not.” Our generation especially struggles with pride and all of its trappings, and thus we have much to learn from the life of St. Silouan.

Mother Superior Catherene.
This is daniel, the friend of monks Irinarchos and Pierre.
I hope and pray that you are well and are drawing nearer to our Lord Christ Jesus in your walk and service to Him.
I still am blessed by going over to the Holy Land each year and can not stop talking about the trips and the people and places of my journeys. This year I was not able to stay at Mary Magdalene as Mother Elisabeth informed me that several monks were staying there through Lent. However, I was blessed to stay with Sister Daniella on top of Mount Olives.
Keep in touch Catherene and keep growing in your Love and Faith.
Your fiend daniel.
