The monastery has launched a new podcast through Ancient Faith Ministries!
"The Monastery Trapeza" features weekly highlights from the spiritual readings that are customarily read aloud during the brotherhood's meals—lives of saints, patristic homilies and spiritual articles timed according to the Church’s liturgical year.
Several episodes have aired already, the most recent of which is a homily by St. Nikolai Velimirovich for the Sunday of the Myrrh-bearers.
To listen to the podcast, visit our page on the Ancient Faith website, or subscribe through the iTunes store.
Listeners can contact trapeza@ancientfaith.com to provide feedback or ideas for the podcast.
It is our hope that you will be edified by these writings as much as we are.
This is wonderful news

Architect Andrew Gould shares some of the thoughts and inspirations behind the new church design in Orthodox Arts Journal:
With great pleasure, I have developed a design for a new church for the Hermitage of the Holy Cross in West Virginia. In many ways, this design is the culmination of 15 years of thought, research, and experimentation on my part, and encapsulates the best of my ideas for Orthodox church design. I would like to share with you the story of this project.

Fathers may our God bless this ministry, it is so nice to hear the trapeza when one is 4 hours away (truthfully a short distance). I love what I have heard so far.
