The fourth episode in our “Chronicles of the Desert” series introduces us to Seraphim of Sarov (Серафим Саровский), a modern saint who lived much like the desert fathers of old. He followed the same counsel that Arsenios the Great received from God (flee, be silent, pray always) and lived many years alone deep within a Russian forest. So, what can a person such as this, one who lived almost twenty years in seclusion and prayer, offer back to the world? And moreover, what can he teach each of us about the importance of persistence in keeping our prayer rule. Watch our latest video to find out! We welcome your feedback and hope that you will also share the video with others.

Holy saint Seraphim please pray for this youtube chanel, its creators and everyone who watches it. That it may grow larger and guide more and more people towards the Light. Holy saint Seraphim please ask our most Holy Theotokos to pray for us and save us.
So beautiful video!
St Serafim is also venerated in our Catholic Church. Love him
Thank you very much God bless Trisagion and supporters amen Saint Seraphim pray for me amen
😊👍
Anyone here want to be friends? I'm seeking spiritual friends everywhere but especially here in Oakland, CA.
What is that chant called? It's beautiful
St. Seraphim's favorite greeting was: Christ is risen, my joy! / Χριστός Ανέστη, χαρά μου!
The word "Άνοιξη" in the title should be "πηγή". Άνοιξη is just the season (winter, summer, autumn, spring) in greek. Πηγή is the place where we can find clear and cool water. 🙂 Keep up the great work!
Glory to God. Thank you for this effort to bring the saints into our lives. May their intercessions and that of the Theotokos save us all. Each of these videos is a treasure.
Song name?
I think the photo showed at 1:58 is a copy of the real log cabin where St. Seraphim was living, the copy of the original log cabin is located about 5 kilometers away via road from Borjomi, Georgia. Here also is the Temple of Saint Seraphim of Sarov
.
simply beautiful! what is the name of the hymn at the end of the video?
I will help you. Inspired by your testimony of your videos.God bless you
BEAUTIFUL hymn too💓⛲🕊️
I had such a beautiful time learning about Seraphim.. and WOW it was incredible. Thank you so much for sharing and releasing this content to the world. I love you and I love this.
I wish I could jump in the well to be totally healed. Praise Jesus Christ. Hallelujia.
What a beautifull video during this Lenten season. Truly a treasure!
What's the name of the first song?
What is the name of the second chant
Praise the Lord our God 🙏 Amen
I love the chanting can some one help me find it
please what is name of last song ?
I need the instrumental that plays around the time 4.30 does anyone know it?
May I ask why when I watch orthodox inspired videos, why are the saints always shown to have this bulbus protrusion on the head. Is it so that they may be presented as ‘uncomely’ as was Jesus, as was John the Baptist? I feel strongly about what I suggest but would appreciate to hear from someone of the orthodox faith. Thank you.
Wonderful video. Please, do share the name of the chant at the end of the video, its incredible.

From where is the second hymn?
Deus está em nós todos momentos amém
Senhor Jesus Cristo tem misericórdia de nós amém
