How to help Abbess Juliana
For those who may want, How to send monetary help to Abbess Juliana in Chile
Regarding sending aid to Abbess Juliana (Hazbun) at her St. John of Kronstadt Convent/Orphanage
near Santiago, Chile:
For any questions to her: Her email address:
abbjuliana @ g mail . com
She is most fluent in Russian,
but she also communicates in English and Spanish, and Arabic.
Rd. Daniel Everiss' question to her:
[Quote]- "PLUS, do let me know, of the safest way/method/address, etc. for
anyone to send you money help!"
Abbess Juliana's Response:
In Christ, Dear Brother Daniel.
I hope you did not LOSE HOPE, waiting to hear back from me.
The problem here, is that the Chileans were having their Independence week.
I
had to go to the Bank to answer your questions. First, of course you
can send my letter to anyone you want to. I have nothing to hide as I
live in the realities of the present day.. Usually, when I was younger,
I would plan to do this and that and go here and there, and sometimes
only one quarter of my plans came to reality, and the others, - three
quarters -NOTHING WORKED.
Bad moods follow, to be honest, but I never raise my voice and I never ever banged any doors.
This is Father Benjamin's [good influence on me].!
The first question in Confession he asks you
Are you at peace with everybody? as
if you say NO! He simply quits. So he wants us to have peace in our
hearts all day long and all night and in the winter and in the summer.
But still we are not saints Do you understand humor?
But what I say about Father Benjamin is true-
Well I found the answer for your second question, this hrimata in Greek, masari in Arabic, dengi in Russian, money in English, plata in Spanish / srebro
in Slavonic is a serious matter., and not humorous. So what I can
suggest is a very long story. And it took all my time to write it down. I
could send a scanner if you want.
Do you have time? have patience?
This is the Bank's address
S.W.I.F.T BECH CL RM
Banco del Estado de Chile
Manqueheue 338
Apoquindo 6095 Santiago Chile
To send masari [ money ] to Abbess Juliana, one needs to send it to the saving's account in the name of:
Julia George Hazbun Zarzar
Camino el Cajon 18060 el Arrayan
Fono 223215334
Account number is: 33861283173
One
thing I would suggest: is to collect a sizable sum of money in one
specific place, and then to send it all at once, as that is easier than
to deposit: $ 5,10 or 100 dollars, as for each donation, no matter what the sum, [ large or small] each time the bank will call me to tell me the good news!
Once
a lady, Katya Ogden used to collect for us, I am quilty, for not giving
her these numbers. I still have her e-mail if you will want to talk to
her. She is a very pious person and her husband is Gregor and their
child, is Alexandra.
Enough of chattering today, as it is raining.
I
think I will stop now. I am waiting for the rain to stop, so I can go
to my cell. I love winter., but have to hurry, as we also live in the
mountains, and as the Computer is uphill, and I live down near the
gate and the kitchen.
Have a good night.
Can someone translate this sentence for you?....as it is in Russian?
"Отъ многоглаголанiя не избежишь греха"
(Human translator's note: This
translates literally as: From speaking much, you will not escape sin.
многоглаголанiя may also be translated as “loquacity” or
“talkativeness”).
.....and this is the TRUE Abbess Juliana!

Visit of Archbishop Andronicus to the Annunciation Monastery in Australia (PHOTOS)
Author: Metropolitan Agafangel incl. September 22, 2014. Posted in ROCOR (Views: 22)On Saturday 7/20 September, on the feast of the Nativity of the Mother of God, Archbishop Andronicus served in the Annunciation Monastery.
Vladyka arrived on Friday afternoon to get acquainted with the monastery, taking part in the evening service and meal.
In
his homily, Bishop Andronicus reminded us of the need to remain
faithful to the Holy Orthodox Church in our times of trouble. The bishop
also spoke of the need to distance ourselves from the world and find
spiritual nourishment in the monasteries for the salvation of our souls.
After the Liturgy, Bishop Andronicus blessed the new cross and dome on the gate, at the entrance to the monastery.

• Not everyone in Russia is fooled by Putin's lies about his dirty little war against Ukraine-
http://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-29300213
• As Atheists and other anti-Christians try to make America a Godless atheist country: A small victory for the Ten Commandments
And this battle is not a small one, but the cosmic ageless universal war between God
and the Devil, Good and Evil.
The Devil and his servants, especially hate the Holy Cross, the very instrument of their defeat, and the very name, JESUS CHRIST, the Saviour of the World.
Under the excuse of 'tolerance' and the false claim, of 'separation of church and state', the leftist anti-Christian forces in this 'progressive/modern' country, are struggling to use our constitution and governmental and our heavily leftist-activist court system, to force... the removal of crosses, or of any Christian religious representations, NATIVITY SCENES!, and any public & historical markers of Christianity, out of our national life, -our schools, and actually in all places...even in or on the top of churches, and from cemeteries (!)...even from military cemeteries!
Among this crowd, are militant anti-Christian Jews, and now the huge influx into America of Moslems, ( who world-wide, have been oppressing and murdering Christians since Muhammad created their foul evil religion), and the various stripes of deluded outright Atheists.
These un-American alien-cultured people are destroying our traditional NATIVE Christian American values and culture, while the majority of the population...do not protest, again, for 'toleration sake'.
God does not bless the nation that does not bless Him.
"Blessed is that nation whose God is the Lord!"

Another example of how un-Orthodox is the MP
article found on: < http://internetsobor.org>
Because, here by photographic evidence, the 'holy patriarch' is baptizing a baby, not by Orthodox full triple immersion, but by the Latin style pouring.This practice is apparently now normal in many parts of the MP, even for adults.
Also, since they teach now, that: 'Every Russian is Orthodox by birth', [ i.e. 'by blood'???, automatically?not what the Holy Fathers ever taught or our Orthodox Holy Tradition teaches] no pre-baptismal/chrismation catechism/instruction in the Orthodox Christian Faith, is offered for many adults. And too, many are given communion without baptism, and without confession also.And also by this photo, it is clear that this baptismal vessel , is plenty deep enough, for infant triple full immersion.
Perhaps, 'His Holiness' does not want to get his hands or arms wet?...with a messy Orthodox style old fashioned outdated, infant baptism.
And too, we have viewed many other typical MP baptismal photos, of their adult baptisms, which they usually do by, pouring too....with the newly being baptized, standing [ i.e. they are obviously healthy enough to be submersed, Orthodox style, under a stream or in an indoor deep pool] with their heads bent, in front of a small vessel, with the MP priest pouring water over their heads, Latin style.

Esphigmenou Monastery Update
OPEN LETTER, in machine-English: Esphigmenou Monastery Update: Their Thessaloniki (income producing) property taken from them, etc
Rough machine-English translation:
Open Letter of the "monks zealot" of Esfigmenu Monastery to Greek Prime Minister Antonis Samaras, regarding the judgment for removal of the monastery of its property in Thessaloniki
Author: i-sobor incl. September 21, 2014. Posted in CPI Greece (Views: 27)
Monastery Esfigmenu
Athos
September 16, 2014
Athos
September 16, 2014
Your Excellency, Mr. Prime Minister Antonis Samaras
Today,
the bailiff announced to us (judgment under № 1228/2014), that within
three days we had to leave the Residence located on the street Venizelos
Thessaloniki and transfer it to the monks of the "new brotherhood."
Once
again, we see that justice has taken toward a stronger and conveys the
property acquired by the long hard work of our brethren, Katsulrieram -
false esfigmentsam who themselves have dubbed themselves
"neo-esfigmentsami" (by decree of the Ecumenical Patriarch).
All
of this is illegal and against the rules, but he continues, because no
court is unable to take a proper decision. This brotherhood was
scheduled outside of Mount Athos, and it itself has proclaimed itself
the "new brotherhood" Esfigmenu. This was followed by restrictions on
the delivery of the monastery of food, medicine, fuel and other minimum
necessary for survival. Then was appointed the confiscation of our
movable and immovable property. Fanarionu nothing left as soon as we
give the orders to be executed by crucifixion.
And
it's all because of pressure on us by the "father" of our -
"compassionate" and deep "Christian" Ecumenical Patriarch, so that we
finally took popery as "equal-dignity, respectively, and Orthodoxy," as
having the same apostolic succession and the same sacraments, and
welcomed all of this along with the rest of the Holy Mountain. And all
because "some" Bartholomew went against the rules of the Church Fathers
and the confession of faith. Ecumenist and defender of false faith.
We
also want to bring to your attention that something like Do you believe
it is impossible to impose any judicial decisions, nor any law
enforcement authorities in Greece.
Needless
to say, we're not going to surrender their positions traitors of faith.
We took a defensive position against all those who seek to destroy us.
All that was our fraternity is acquired belongs to him and only him.
When this false Esphigmenou something created to argue with us today?
What
right have they to demand anything? They arrogated to themselves the
right of it, because, as it involves the Constitutional Charter St.
Mountains, they were illegally granted the name, but in fact they have
never celebrated St. Charter. Mountains, and why is it we have to give
them the last thing we have left? Why? Why all public Greek judicial
authorities pleaded incompetent in litigation with regard to the
adoption of illegal administrative decisions by the Ecumenical Patriarch
and the Holy Community of the Holy Mountain, while the persecution of
the Holy Mount Athos zealots do not stop? We're not going peredavvt
anything in his hands and let us Katsulieridov pressured tanks though -
we will stand till the end!
We
do not bother, do not bother anyone and we provoke clashes. Keep away
from false esfigmenitov everything that belongs to our monastery.
Traitors of faith and their monks have arrogated to themselves the
illegal part of our property, which allows them to lead a luxurious
life, when for us - 128 monks that was the only source of income for our
survival!
We
do not tolerate anything more from these monks. Keep them away from us,
otherwise we do not accept any responsibility for the actions that we
will have to take in case of collision. We ask for protection and
assistance from the country's political leadership.
Dear
Mr. Prime Minister, please give a political solution to the issue, to
stop any kind of persecution against us and our monahov.Radi God,
because we are patriots of their country and Orthodox monks!
We
were attacked with crowbars, to us is letting excavators, and this is
the real violation of basic human rights. We ask for your help and the
entire political leadership of the country. We have selected an immoral
manner everything: our name, our belongings ...
I
need you to know that the last Seventy years on Mount Athos secretly
and silently unfolds religious persecution against the monks who
remained faithful to the traditions of Orthodoxy! Their persecutors -
people Patriarchate and Priest. Kinot consistently seized power on Mount
Athos. These people, acting together: a) do not allow any of the monks
anti-Uniates, how old he was, to take to help make disciples; b) do not
allow any of these monks to buy the cell to monashestvovat there.
Their
aim is to gradually limit the Holy Mountain zealot to create believers
the impression that no one in the St.. Woe is not against the conclusion
of the union, betraying the faith.
Finally,
all of us fathers - the victim of persecution, express the wish that
you have desired to the covenant of God, and not friendship with strong
land.
That
concerns us, we monks Esfigmenu, we do not accept violence, whatever it
was, and no matter where they originated, and we will not leave our
confession, as did the holy martyrs at Vecchio, preferring death to
betrayal, even the slightest , the Orthodox Faith.
With all due respect to you.
