Changes

:''O strange Orthodox Church, so poor and weak, with neither the organization nor the culture of the West, staying afloat as if by a [[miracle]] in the face of so many trials, tribulations and struggles; a Church of contrasts, both so traditional and so free, so archaic and so alive, so ritualist and so personally involved, a Church where the priceless pearl of the [[Gospel]] is assiduously preserved, sometimes under a layer of dust; a Church which in shadows and silence maintains above all the eternal values of purity, poverty, [[asceticism]], [[humility]] and [[forgiveness]]; a Church which has often not known how to act, but which can sing of the joy of [[Pascha]] like no other.''
