Seeing how much I was enjoying it, Father Seraphim said: “You remember the story of St Jerome feed­ing a lion in the desert? Well, here we’ve got a bear obeying us.” I exclaimed: “The sisters would die of fright if they saw such a sight!” “They won’t see it,” replied the Staretz. Then, “I’d be very sad if anyone killed him,” I went on. “Nobody will kill him and nobody except yourself will see him,” answered the father.’ Matrona was already rejoicing at the thought of telling the sisters about it but the Staretz, reading her thoughts, said to her, ‘No, my joy, you’re not to tell anyone until eleven years after my death.

The Jesus Prayer is offered as a means of concentration, as a focal point for our inner life. Though there are both longer and shorter versions, the most frequently used form of the Jesus Prayer is: \"Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner.\" This prayer, in its simplicity and clarity, is rooted in the Scriptures and the new life granted by the Holy Spirit. It is first and foremost a prayer of the Spirit because of the fact that the prayer addresses Jesus as Lord, Christ and Son of God; and as St. Paul tells us, \"no one can say 'Jesus is Lord' except by the Holy Spirit\" (1 Cor. 12:3). \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.goarch.org\/-\/the-jesus-prayer\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eSource\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SISTER NETTLE","offers":[{"title":"No Frame \/ Pre-Order | June 2026","offer_id":43981880131718,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Add Frame | Natural Oak \/ Pre-Order | June 2026","offer_id":43981880164486,"sku":null,"price":78.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Add Frame | Rich Walnut \/ Pre-Order | June 2026","offer_id":43981880197254,"sku":null,"price":78.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0244\/6291\/7696\/files\/1BC9E5D9-E974-47B2-92AC-023D9D321D9D_AE1403DD-0A46-43B3-9265-98D6EBB261E0-VSCO_3.jpg?v=1779295323"},{"product_id":"alphabet-puzzle","title":"Alphabet Puzzle","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIntroduce your little ones to the world of letters and colors with our Rainbow Wooden Alphabet Puzzle!

Terrified, she let out a scream. The Staretz turned round and, seeing her, patted the animal and sent him away. Then he invited Matrona to come and sit beside him. ‘But’, Matrona relates, ‘hardly had we sat down when the animal returned from the wood and came and lay at the Staretz’ feet. I was as terrified as before, but when I saw Father Seraphim, quite unconcerned, treating the bear like a lamb, stroking him and giving him some bread, I calmed down. I looked at the father and was dazzled by the sight of his face which seemed to me full of light and like an angel’s. When I was wholly reassured the Staretz gave me a piece of bread and said: “You needn’t be the least afraid of him, he won’t hurt you.” So I held out the bread to the bear and, while he was eating it, it was such joy to be feeding him that I wanted to go on doing so. Seeing how much I was enjoying it, Father Seraphim said: “You remember the story of St Jerome feed­ing a lion in the desert? Well, here we’ve got a bear obeying us.” I exclaimed: “The sisters would die of fright if they saw such a sight!” “They won’t see it,” replied the Staretz. Then, “I’d be very sad if anyone killed him,” I went on. “Nobody will kill him and nobody except yourself will see him,” answered the father.’ Matrona was already rejoicing at the thought of telling the sisters about it but the Staretz, reading her thoughts, said to her, ‘No, my joy, you’re not to tell anyone until eleven years after my death.

The Jesus Prayer is offered as a means of concentration, as a focal point for our inner life. Though there are both longer and shorter versions, the most frequently used form of the Jesus Prayer is: \"Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner.\" This prayer, in its simplicity and clarity, is rooted in the Scriptures and the new life granted by the Holy Spirit. It is first and foremost a prayer of the Spirit because of the fact that the prayer addresses Jesus as Lord, Christ and Son of God; and as St. Paul tells us, \"no one can say 'Jesus is Lord' except by the Holy Spirit\" (1 Cor. 12:3). \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.goarch.org\/-\/the-jesus-prayer\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eSource\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SISTER NETTLE","offers":[{"title":"5.5” x 8.5”","offer_id":43999344754822,"sku":null,"price":11.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0244\/6291\/7696\/files\/999D7FF5-AE2F-4917-AD37-B0F1757F359F_4B83A8C3-B77E-438B-931C-0B6DB72A9835-VSCO_1.jpg?v=1779294618"},{"product_id":"oversized-linen-tote-fairy-garden","title":"Oversized Linen Tote | Fairy Garden","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGoing to the farmers market or to the beach on a hot summer's day - a big linen bag will quickly become the perfect ally for you - comfortable straps to carry as well as quite spacious space to put everything you need. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e100% \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eOEKO-TEX® and EUROPEAN FLAX® certified linen | 215 GSM | Stone washed for softness\u003cbr\u003eWIDTH: 21\" \/ 54cm LENGTH: 24\" \/ 60cm HANDLES: 20\" \/ 50cm - \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCare Instructions:\u003cbr\u003eMachine washable (40°C\/104°F); tumble dry on low heat; wash separately or with similar colors.
