🌐 Quote shown in the original Greek — English translation below

… ιερούς λυγμούς. Αυτός ήταν ένας Γέροντας που φαινόταν σαν ένα μικρό παιδάκι, με αγάπη ανυπέρβλητη προς την Παναγία, την κατά Χάρη μητέρα του…

«ΘΑ ΣΑΣ ΣΩΣΩ ΟΛΟΥΣ!…»

Είπε λοιπόν κάποτε: «Μου φάνηκε στον ύπνο μου σαν να μου μιλούσε η Παναγία και μου έλεγε: “Θα σας σώσω όλους• μόνο να έχετε τη μεταξύ σας αγάπη!”…».

Elder Antonios the Gregoryates was a man of God. He was very ascetic, and inside his cell, he had almost nothing. Throughout his life, he constantly spoke the God-given words of the “Archangelic Salutation,” the “Theotokos Virginize…”. He once said: “It appeared to me in my dream as if the Panagia was speaking to me and saying: ‘I will save you all; only have love among yourselves!’…”
