"In the midst of a war zone brought about by pure evil, pure hatred, the workers were living proof that mankind is, by nature, good, that love is indeed greater than hatred, no matter how diabolical," Metropolitan Theodosius said. "Some had taken personal time off from their jobs, without pay, to perform this work of pure charity, of pure love, for the sake of those they had never even met." "Charity and love are synonymous," Metropolitan Theodosius concluded. "And where charity and love prevail, Christ prevails, reminding us as I was reminded this afternoon, that the words we chant on Holy Pascha -- 'Receive the light from the Light which is never overcome by darkness' -- can indeed bring hope and comfort, even in a war zone, even at Ground Zero."

Amen

I heard on local radio, that a NASCAR pit crew member, with welding (metal cutting) skills, took a week's vacation and headed to the Pile.
