Why does Saint Fanourios want pies at his feast, while other saints don’t ask for something similar? If that were the case, we would be eating sweets every day. How nice that would be! That’s what Dimitris was thinking, who had enjoyed fanouropitas that afternoon at the monastery of Saint John the Long, on August 27. The monastery garden was fragrant with sanctity, the pies with candles lit on the tables, and the priest blessing... The ladies around, the “pie-makers,” urging you to eat from their delicious pie and licking your fingers, but also stroking your belly which had swelled from too much food. Meanwhile, they listened to conversations, stories about the sufferings the Saint endured for the love of Christ, and a bunch of others. Like, for example, that the Saint helps you find whatever you have lost. Dimitrakis had lost his ball, but that afternoon he was so satisfied that he forgot to ask for it. No worries, another time. The Saint is always there to listen to children’s prayers and bring them joy… A book dedicated to the power of faith that colors our lives and helps us rediscover the sacred and precious things we seek. For children aged 6 and above.
