Upon my visit to the Holy Monastery of Iveron last year to partake in the great feast of The Dormition of Our Lady, I had the distinct pleasure of chatting with Elder Epiphanios of The Holy Cell of Milopotamos.
The all night vigil is long and between liturgical commitments I set aside some time to seek out Elder Epiphanios.
It didn't take long to find him, on my first walk to the back entrance to the kitchen, there he was, taking a much needed rest from the hot fire.
We spent some time together, chatting about Australia and the Holy Mountain, food and wine also.
It was a blessing to have spent some time with Elder Epiphanios after so many years.
