As an introduction to the next blog – 1089 -, were I will continue the story of our Athos-trip in 2009, I will first show you some images of the Dionysiou monastery that I found on the internet.

Monks and pilgrims pealing unions, prepairing a large meal, right in front of the refectory (with the famous apocaliptic fresco’s on the right hand wall).

Thankyou for these photos. They bring back blessed memories of a pilgrimage myself and two other friars made in 2005. We were deeply moved by the experience. Keep up the good work.
