touch on the neck like this ok so it would. finally be like having that wattle straight that said this one has gone. far away from here try this. still. what's that like there's no wall on this sanctified on vellum and they're very kind to me to see ok and they are you do do do do do go good through. a long special eggs. see what the fuss is all about. the most one to three. whether it's the saintly atmosphere or something in their feed they certainly fantastic ladies to gigantic to kings hear us. ok very much one and.

that's if one two three four five. one set. only another seven hundred seventy five to go. the volunteers come from a huge variety of different backgrounds svetlana is a model for moscow but she's not afraid of getting a hamster well it's probably not normal that a girl like me came here instead of going to turkey or enjoying summer in a beach town where but here i am living with monson waiting someone else's garden there is the bit there are other people that look at themselves and live in a completely different way and they're not held back really where all here. little one for me is a place of strong spiritual power i've wanted to come here for a long time now there is a possibility i can become a volunteer. here and work for the glory of god and how priests or this

place. there are common threads that bind many of the people here together and the group also becomes like a surrogate family. mostly these outward the next people who came here to find. brotherhood but of course there is some percentage that. here looking for their way in life. than by taking them for a walk in the woods. try to know what they were come to help them find their answer . many people simply come for the islands outstanding natural beauty. edged by rugged shorelines and covered with lush greenery this is truly a tranquil getaway but there are some visitors to the long term who have no families to return to his trip to the island is a welcome break from a difficult life. leaker's ill as new york runs

a camp for children from local orphanages who also have learning difficulties for many it's the first time they've spent nights away from the city. because it the first time we came here with disabled children for many years before we used to take the kids on trips which is that because we understood that nature does children a world of good and that you were decided to try working with children with the help of violence nature in this place turned out to be totally unique and it's not just the nature here that works. him that you should bear in mind that these children are from a correctional orphanage they are believed to be unable to go to an ordinary school because of some mental disability and in fact this isn't true they are not mentally retarded whatsoever. that these are the first kids that just sit on the shore of lot of god and watch the storms the splashing water and they say thank you for

choosing that your beautiful place. it was simply amazing. that they feel it that they can feel the beauty of the apparently they don't have good feelings in their lives. hardly any. fifteen year old denise is just one of the youngsters reaping the benefits this is his second saw him on the island and he says it's changed his life but it's. rocky road that's brought him here. i can't say that i had a good childhood. my dad was an alcoholic my mom was too mom ended up in prison that's how i ended up in an orphanage. everything changes as time goes by. at the moment i have no grudge against anyone my life has become so much better. but i've forgotten my past it's no good

remembering it. and he's a handy men to have around when you catch something to. pull it into the sure. who. ducks. yeah. oh it is. seriously.

love. if. i was staying in the volunteers dormitory normally men and women a kept segregate since both the old get together is allowed especially for a meet and greet session. everyone says where they're from what they've come to the law and then name. then all you got to do is remember seeing here year. you. sure you remember. all i have on that's ok let's have a good. to know. cynics. game out of you oh do you know. it only because of honest little.

sin. i. mean you said he wouldn't be able to do it you know sometimes sometimes it works. sometimes. work at the mall mistreat takes us all around the island along roads that people have traveled here for more than one hundred fifty years. although most of the brothers live in the center of the ministry a small selection choose to isolate themselves from the rest of the community retiring to hermitage is where only men are allowed to enter the grounds. the russian school these places. and there are among the holiest centers of. each one is way off the beaten track and for some of the volunteers the journey to gold

has been anything but straightforward to. buy used to be an atheist and believe in nothing but science logic and facts i was looking for truth everywhere i followed all the popular fashions that people write books about make films about. only after twenty years of searching did i become an orthodox christian after printing of the coffin of a famous russian saying i discovered that many things. changed first of all the pain in my leg that i'd suffered for ages the disappeared and last but not least i discovered the ability to read in the old church slavonic even though i'd never learned how to do that. those who've been here more than once say you have to put the time and to understand it fully that living and working here is the only way to really tap into its energy the job is tough and repetitive but none of the volunteers complain everyone is confident of a spiritual rewards and happy that they're working to reestablish a face that was so pesach you see joining the soviet union. is the only branch that

has managed to keep the tradition alive that's not changed since the time of the apostles but maybe that's why it was preserved the bread of life the jesus christ spoke of the living would that's why russia is experiencing a spiritual rise now. for is probably the most complex of human activity. in the phenomenon of friendly fire probably extends back to the invention of

gunpowder. kill a bunch of people that don't know what the problem is there are already us people. reading. this summer that shoots my brother in the leg not intentionally because of it because it was ny times four in the morning even the. even the belch shoulders. are going to make mistakes does this whole idea of brotherhood order. and camaraderie in this set that was in this context it has absolutely no place. what defines a country's success. faceless figures of economic growth. or a factual standard of living.

councils here in the u.k. are calling for tougher laws to police aggressive bankers finally no longer will the banker beggars be shaking us down for yet more and outs and bailouts every time we passed the city no longer listening to them plead for more money printing and free credit facilities we're sick and tired of all the banker beggars harassing us every time we pass one of their toll booth cons like this famous one eight hundred we don't oh look i found it your banking system that i found trash on the ground before me give it me it's truly in dollars it'll give a berk give me a trillion i want another trillion more trillions do they give me get me.

well told you my language will. react to situations i have read the reports. but no i will leave them to the state department to comment on your letter. to mr kerry is on the job. no. they get no more weasel words when you know they had a direct question please prepared for a chase when you have a bunch be ready for a bad little freedom of speech and let him down to fit into class to. live. live. live. live. live.

live live. live . blonds pride and joy is its transfiguration of the savior cathedral and the sound of its bells st tourists pilgrims and

volunteers to worship or to work. ok let's work for the glory of god. all the skilled workers cuts hammer and replace the volunteers keep supplies coming and clean up the mess it's a massive job the cathedral is seventy six meters high and in some areas they're having to remove more than one hundred twenty years of. them when they came here last year it was seen approximately the same condition. here it's a long process this is serious work and it's very expensive and requires a high degree of professionalism with what i was surprised when they invited volunteers to work here at best their trusted with work like this. but is it enough

or do we need more you know what i think it's enough. you'll have to carry it let's go. to his a heavy. i'll take it off or. waste has to go somewhere and again i am responsible for getting it off the scaffolding as quickly as possible we need to take the direct route. the bucket i'm probably a transport system but it would. for a career for forty years it had no proper roof it wasn't looked after properly and still it enjoyed all these conditions that any means that the cathedral was made really very well it was built with a huge margin for safety that was up like

a fetal will stand like this for many years to count what i'm now we're trying to save what's been preserved this work should be done and it should be preserved this is truly part of the national heritage. so us. and then. the board. or the. board.

leaker into a team of volunteers want their children to leave alone with a new perspective also the work they do here fosters a spirit of cooperation and they can see the effets developing before their eyes but even so are you here it's hard to explain everything is so natural this is the way people should live i guess. you know what they will wanted to show these children that there is a place where they can ask for help in case something really bad happens to them they understand completely that bad things will happen to them in the future. they are perfectly aware of what life has in store for them they know that there will be a lot of drug dealers and alcohol and then the stand how hard it is to resist those things so it's very important for them to know that there is a place where they're always welcome that they should know how to find the way to this place where.

walking around the lawn is like stepping back into a different age and it's easy to see why so many regard it as a sanctuary away from the real world. it seems to have a physical and emotional energy which the monks say is a manifestation of god's grace. it's had such a profound effect on so many that there's even a syndrome named after it's. the compulsion trip turned to the island again and again it's not just adults who experience it. my mom first brought me here started going to scone i liked it very much and it's become my third place now was it your favorite place i like it because of its weather because of the monastery it feels so good in here they've got a farm it's nice to leave people are very kind and you know what you want to do

when you grow up to be a monk you want to be a monk why it's just what's in my heart i can't explain why i feel this way. the live hit yes i want to live on balaam what he actually wants at this point is not to be a monk but he once he wants a purpose he once something pure something which dignifies him. something which speaks of him as a man as a human being people became knights and soldiers for the same reason. i would certainly encourage him. to. use its journey to the brotherhood here was more unusual than most altar tending

university in st petersburg he spent fifteen years living in ministering in the us before retiring to follow him he says each monk must end his place in the monastery . spiritual pastors of the monastery will just say the word or you're prepared to become a novice and you'll become officially a novice on the part of the brotherhood and spend some time that way and the few years or maybe months later if you still decide to embrace this kind of wife and people see your. as a benefit to the community you'll be ta'en sure and perhaps when are they and so the priests from. the monastic community here has been rebuilt in the last twenty years period during the soviet union when the area served as a mental asylum now there are around a hundred brothers living here permanently but before the russian revolution of nine hundred seventeen there were more than a thousand some of them left

a legacy down the ages. this quiet scene is called the smell of skeet and it's famous in particular because of one monk efraim he took it upon himself to pray for the souls of dead soldiers and he took his work so seriously that he dug his own grave and every night he would lie in his own coffin. and since then the chapel has been dedicated for the souls of the diet for the faith and for the mother. even if the life of extreme self-sacrifice doesn't appeal it is at least possible to follow in the footsteps of some of these old saints and one of the most popular pilgrimages is to the lomas most famous it. was this is the cave where saint alexander of spear lived.

this is the place where alexander of spirit spent hours praying in solitude here he would make a fire is real the stones got warm and gave heat back so he could spend winters here can he lead such a righteous life that he was granted a vision of the holy trinity came to him in the form of three angels. and ordered him to go to the river spear and found a monastery there it is still functional. excursions like these opponents of the joy of. prison archipelago of small islands just waiting to be explored and the landscape always provides some great photos. but many of the loam secrets are only revealed in the churches themselves.

bell ringing here is a real and the company ologists train for years to master the difficult rhythms they need to control up to a dozen bells at once and make it look effortless. it's part of the limbs proud musical tradition displayed in its full glory during the solemn services. gemzar isn't the best aboard a bus i think we should fill our lives with as many rich and diverse impressions as possible today i'm a developer in two months i'll be working somewhere else in such a way your worldview builds up on different things you can develop yourself and

create your personality. this earth is like a hotel that we're only here temporarily riches well go go to hell or to have on god tests us on the earth if you me and phone my laws then you'll go to heaven what if if you don't then you'll go to how. we have to move on and there's life here you get some kind of luggage that you will later you take with here into the city that we have to move on and make plans both families and realizing your family what you've learned here there will. the

full over. but moving back to real life is easy if a some than for others the children from leakers all finish camp have reached the end of their stay and it was time to see them off for the docks. but. it's clear to leak air that these are the same kids that arrived on the island just a few weeks ago that at least for a while belong this way to its magic and brought a little joy into their lives. but it coming this moment any less painful.

perhaps the monks of old settled here because they felt there was something otherworldly about. it it was always a place with special energy and the from nature or from something more divine. for the pilgrims and volunteers who journey here one visit is rarely enough and many will return to the. place with the power to heal the spirits. right on the scene. first for you and i were being put.

pay back debts countries is drowning under the amount of debt that they had and so every year they would borrow money. and they would use that same amount of money to pay back oh this can all that money really. the wages of debt. i was thinking somehow i had to come back because mom was waiting for me. i just knew that everything would be fine for some reason they were so confident because we were going to get married officially after he came back how could he not come back because the mere thought of it never crossed her mind. the militants decided to try and break through to her new guinea abstaining grenade . with a splurge and blow him will run his back and it will. and it was all over all

should we know that our comrades on our commander was leave us no matter how tough it gets we're team. getting was a senior in his military trio. he knew that if he didn't smother that grenade with his body more of just comrades would die he gave his own life to save us friends. what defines a country's success. faceless figures of economic growth. for a factual standard of living.
