A woman from Trikala, when she miraculously
found herself in the house of a priest in the monastery, together with a doctor, and there he told her a
story. He was a little child up there in the
mountains, the scriptures say, and he escaped from his mother and had a
candle in his hands and while playing, he entered a large cave. There, as
he walked inside the cave, he extinguished the candle and two
angels appeared before him in the light. The little child was not afraid.
The angels were so there for him that he was not afraid.
They just reached out their hand and took him by the hand and took him
in front of a shrine. There, the little child saw a
young man sleeping.
Larnaca was in the honey and he saw behind Larnaca, behind Larnaca, and all around were things
that, he might say, looked like gold.
He asked who is the one sleeping the angels
and he heard the voice of the angels telling him it is Alexander the Great
a saint of God. and they took the little boy
out slowly then slowly after they had appeared around him there were dozens he says angels all
around this Larnaca and when he came out they told him that he cannot
pass only you went inside and saw what you saw
no one else can pass through this cave because we are the guards
this is what the grandfather said to this woman from Trikala in the
gospel where he was staying It was from a doctor, a well-known doctor. The doctor was listening too
and he says this little boy saw a lot. What did God want to say
with what he showed him and left it like that. And Alexander the Great told us that
he leads the spiritual forces which once
he told us have gone to the city and are already doing cleaning.
What I meant I don't know. The armies he says of the angels and the spiritual forces
under the guidance of the Saint as he said of Alexander the Great.
are doing the necessary cleanings preparing the ground for the great
king. "You will see", he would say, "I will not live.
But you will see the city, our reigning free",
Pappoulis would say. Another event which
I have not recorded either, there are so many and my dog has told me so many more.
Another book will come out at some point. We simply have not yet dealt with it in depth. When
George, who usually transported him from Aliatro to
Valari, went to pick him up one morning, but he had forgotten that he had no gasoline.
He had to go fill up his tank in the evening for this long
trip. And he tells him, "Pappoulis," he says, "we'll go by a gas station because
ours is closed. We'll go by a gas station to
fill up on gas because there's a gas station outside as soon as you pass by and go towards the
national road. It was closed though. I'll have to fill up on gas so we can go
up. Go ahead, George, he says, we'll find it on the road."
He went ahead, passed Lamia, got on the old road, the fact that there was the old
road to Domokos. He was looking for gas, the gauge wasn't going down from where it was
and he was impressed. In other words, the gauge hadn't gone to zero.
Pappoulis told him to go ahead and Panagia would help. He says, "We'll find a
gas station and we'll start." They went to the valari. George was forgotten.
They turned around and the pointer was pointing to where it had
left off when it started. And George asked him. Grandpa says
how we went, how is it possible to go with a few kilometers of van where the gasoline was
enough for a few kilometers. George, the Virgin Mary arranges these things.
The Virgin Mary wanted us to go up and she took care of our itinerary. That's what
she answered him. We've seen this before with Agios
Porphyrios. When someone was going from the national road and ran out of gasoline.
Then he asked for help from Agios Porphyrios
and started the car and drove normally. They went up to
the apples in Agios Porphyrios and to the pilgrimage and then he
realized what had happened. Because Saint Porphyrios gives an order to the old woman, saying, "
Put him, put him on fuel, because he came without fuel on him." He doesn't have a drop
of fuel. The Virgin Mary brought him, he says. These are from our saints.
But you will tell me, my good Christians, why do these things not happen in our days? Every
house has a cross. He lifts a weight, some smaller, some
larger. But everyone has a cross on them.
and many times many of us have a very heavy cross either with a patient
or with someone who suffers from some problems.
And we say why today miracles don't happen as they did then.
Because we have lost touch with Christ. Things are simple.
We have become Western Christians. Refugees in the now, in the acquired things of
life. Refugees in all these meaningless things that at some point
we leave behind. We write in the Orthodoxy column that is circulating
about a shipowner who went to Saint Porphyrios and told him how
he had to act in order to be saved. So the saint told him that you must
share all your property, that you and God remain
and then you will be saved. In other words, he repeated what he mentioned to Eanias when he
told him that I keep all your commandments, Lord
, and asked to see what he had to do to be saved and he tells him to take and
share your property. He shared your property and he did not
do it. But this shipowner shared it.
He built a wonderful charity house at that time and distributed free books of spiritual
content to all Greeks.
He even became a monk and I remember that
he was helped in his work by another holy monk,
Father Longinus from Saint David.
