Photo    The newest edition of our Church, “Selections from the Masterpieces of St. John Chrysostom”, translated by Prof. S. Papahristo, and prepared for the press by Mr. Gaqo Bushaka has been published.
    St. John Chrysostom, the great hierarch of our Church (IV century),” is one of those giant luminaries who shines unceasingly in the spiritual heaven and emanates  a glow of light so strong that it can reach the most remote spheres, breaking the barriers of time, and slitting with triumph the heavy fog that comes from evil’s envy… Seventeen centuries have passed since Chrysostom appeared in this world. Seventeen centuries! However, his words, which once electrified the believers of Antioch and Constantinople, continue to remain new even today, and resound today with the same force that came out from the mouth of the great oratory … “.
