That's your Godfather??!! I know him. I forget his name but he is the monk that greets you when you go to St. Anthony's monastery. An he only really speaks Greek. That is cool that he is your Godfather.

Edit: I think that is him, lol. Tell me if I'm correct.

That pic looks like it is at the front entrance to the Monastery where the bird "Tony" is.

No, must be someone different. He's Russian and speaks only Russian and English (unless he's taken up Greek since he's been there!) I think he's working in the bookstore now.

He actually chose St. Anthony's partially because he couldn't speak Greek and said he'd be less tempted to idle chatter (which wasn't a problem for him anyway!)

Yeah that's where the monk I am speaking of works as well, in the bookstore. That's where you go to when you first get there. Anyway it looks exactly like him. Although all the monks have beards, they don't really look the same. Maybe he learned Greek now and speaks it to me, since I am Greek. I assumed he was Greek, cause he has an ancent when trying to speak English. What is his name?

Haha it's funny, cause that one Priest I guess he is, loks so out of place next to Elder Paisios and I guess that's EP Bartholomew, but can't tell. Kinda doesn't look like him.
