A Priest's Mystery Part-I 2005-09-24 VoR World Service
"A Priest's Mystery" is a true story about Father John, a parish priest and religious instructor in a Russian town.
He combined the humbleness of a servant of God and the dignity of a Christian pastor. He was meek and mild in everyday affairs, while zealous in everything that concerned his priestly ministry. He loved his church dearly, spared no pains to adorn it, and always entered it with joy and reverence.
The lamp of God's grace was burning over Father John for a long time, but suddenly it went out. And Father John sank into the darkness of misery and suffering... This is what happened.
