A Boy's Journey to Sainthood: Saint Porphyrios Kafsokalivia

Item No. 00211

Illustrated by Chrysanthi Haralambiou-Spyrou

The saints of our Church, even the greatest elders and ascetics, were once children! In volume 2 of the series, we meet a sweet boy named Angelo who would become Saint Porphyrios. Many a time while grazing his sheep, Angelo would find shelter in the hollow of an olive tree and would eagerly read The Life of Saint John the Hut-Dweller. From childhood until he was a tonsured monk, the story of the Hut-Dweller was Angelo's constant companion. He dreamed that one day he would set sail on a fast moving boat, traverse great seas, and drop anchor at Mount Athos, the port that stands between earth and heaven.
