A Hail Mary to combat pornography:

Hail Mary, full of grace, The Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen. By thy pure and Immaculate Conception, O Mary, make my body pure and my soul holy.

Настоящий пример верности и любви. Святые Иоаким и Анна

A true example of fidelity and love. Saints Joachim and Anna

"Встреча праведных Иоакима и Анны у Золотых ворот". Псков, 2-я четверть 16 века.

"The Meeting of the Righteous Joachim and Anna at the Golden Gate." Pskov, Russia, second quarter of the 16th century.

Святые Иоаким и Анна, родители девы Марии. У святых 50 лет не получалось завести ребёнка. На иконе изображена радостная встреча, произошедшая вскоре после того, как и Анне, и Иоакиму ангел сообщил о скором рождении их дочери - девы Марии. Можно заметить, что Иоаким случайно наступил на ногу Анны, так как сильно спешил встретиться с ней

Saints Joachim and Anna, parents of the Virgin Mary. The saints had been trying to conceive for 50 years. The icon depicts their joyful meeting, which occurred shortly after an angel informed both Anna and Joachim of the imminent birth of their daughter, the Virgin Mary. One can see that Joachim accidentally stepped on Anna's foot, as he was in such a hurry to meet her.

"Despondency means the same laziness, only worse. You'll weaken in body and spirit from despondency. You don't want to work or pray, you go to church with neglect, and the whole person weakens"

St. Ambrose of Optina (Grenkov)

"Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”
