Lovely. Thank you Destro. Brings to memory my uncle, Yovan, who was killed without a trace for refusing to join communists in their sweep of Serbia in 1944. For that he was officially classified as "enemy #1" of the state although he never fired a shot at them. He just turned 18.

God is merciful and just. My heart is is with Fr Solokovich and his joy is my joy. His prayers for his martyr father is a prayer for all martyrs, including my uncle Yovan. I will make sure to remember the feast and offer my veneration to his father.

Kolo, you can certainly relate to this -- 42 generations of priests in this man's family. The gates of hell will never bring down Orthodoxy.
