Reincarnated “Christians”

Prayer on the feast of the Transfiguration

Archimandrite Iachint Unciuleac

Come to us again, O Jesus—do not listen to Peter! Come down from Tabor and come to our homes, into our hearts! Come here, where we are suffering and laboring for our daily bread!

St. Aidan then took Oswald by his right arm and exclaimed: “May this arm be incorrupt forever”.

All this testifies to the fact that Georgian society will not accept the Antidiscrimination Law and this topic remains very pressing to this day.
