While America might be sparse with Orthodoxy. It is no doubt that we are gaining ground with quality. I am so thankful for my American clergy and holy Saints.
So true! America right now has something special on its hands. We have an abundance of great evangelists and the number is only growing. Lord have mercy on us all!
I was truly amazed and thrilled to discover the great quality of the American Orthodox Christians! From this Romanian, you'll always have a friend and brother in Crhist right here. God bless you!
It must have been quite a moment when St. Andrews was opened for the first time. I have only seen the beauty of the church in his videos, but it is difficult to imagine anything like that where I'm from. But that thought really makes me step back and realize that it is up to us to build it ourselves, and that is a hard thing. It requires patience, devotion, humility in the moment, and not to mention sacrifice. But one day if I am able to stand at the opening of a beautiful Orthodox cathedral in my city, and to know that I helped make it happen, it will be a gift of a feeling. God, give me strength and humility so that I may be a part of something greater.
Adevărat a înviat! Thank you father for your beautiful words. Let me express to anyone who may read this message that it is a blessing to see the rise of orthodoxy in America and a true lesson to the orthodox nations that have taken orthodoxy for granted. We, through your eyes and your joyous embrace of our Lord, find once again what modernity has hidden from us and see once more what was right under our noses. Let us do as father Josiah teaches us and go fill our churches once more, and remember our ancestors who gave their lives for our faith.
I've definitely seen an increase of people coming to my church that I've been at for almost a year now. There seems to be such a hunger for the Lord. I think people are rejecting aethism. We're out growing our church with plans to build a new one. In fact, Fr. Josiah will be visiting our parish in October! Glory to God!
Father Josiah please bless Romania's Christians. Be the St. Ap Andrew pray and protect you, help you in your mission for which you have been called by God and have a good response to God\s judgement. We are reminding you and your community in our prayers.❤🙏
It’s true, there are so few orthodox churches in my area. Dozens and dozens of nondenominational/protestant churches. What I would do for a wonderful and reverent parish to call home!
Good evening dear father. I wanted to ask you whether you could make a video reflecting on biblical strength, and how to find it in moments where someone feels confused, lost and overall weak. Thank you.
Father Josiah: "God be with you!" Translator: "Conform tuturor legilor cunoscute de aviație, nu se poate o albină ar trebui să poată zbura. Aripile sale sunt prea mici pentru a fi obținute corpul ei gras de pe pământ. Albina, desigur, zboară oricum pentru că albinelor nu le pasă ceea ce cred oamenii este imposibil."
Why do you mock the translator? It's a lot harder to translate live in front of a huge audience than doing it while you sit in front of your phone alone. This was not nice at all.
@@KeterClassHistory Some English expressions are longer than the Romanian correspondents: "have mercy on me" vs "miluiește-mă", "Temple of God" vs "Biserică", etc.

Beautiful, full of love, simplicity and devotion! Christ is risen! God bless the people of Romania in everything, in spirit and in truth!

ክርስቶስ ተንስአ እሙታን! Meaning Christ Risen!!
Christ is Risen! Hristos a Înviat! What a wonderful event and how happy we are for your trip to Ro.
Romanians are the nicest and most hospitable people I’ve met. I’ve met a few here in America and every time it’s an awesome experience. ❤
Just don't tell them you are Russian.
What a joy to have Fr. Trenham in Iași, I've been watching his videos for almost a year now. So glad to have him here in person.
❤✝CHRIST IS RISEN ✝❤
❤💪🙏✝GOD BE WITH US AGAINST EVIL AND TEMPTATIONS ✝🙏🕊✌
what an excellent translator...and a beautifully uplifting speech for the Romanian people.
Yes but sadly I don't think that it reflects the reality. Most of us don't have that insane love for Christ that father Josiah is speaking about. 😢
@@sfappetrupavelandrei you are doing better than the west :)
With all my heart, I pray that Holy Orthodox churches multiply and propagate in the land of America just as they are abundant in Orthodox countries! 🙏
What pleasant surprise, welcome to Romania!
You nailed this
Moving speech, thank you Father!

Seriously? 😂
@jordanperrault5039 No. He may have not translated 100% exactly what father Josiah said but it was approximately the same.

@@sfappetrupavelandrei I'm not mocking the translator, I'm making fun of the Romanian language being super long compared to English.
