    3)”That is father Seraphim,he was Russian who graduated on Military academy before revolution,and then during the revolution he came as a refugee in Serbia in the monastery Miljkovo where he entered a monastic order (St. John.Maximovic of Shanghai & San Francisco made him a monk).I don’t know exactly when he had went to mount Athos,but he spent whole his life on Karoulia.He was a great ascetic and clergyman who I visited many times during my stay there.He was a pure angelic soul”- that is what my priest,archimandrite Gabriel(Vuckovic) said about this picture
