Lazarakia

Lazarakia

Dilute the yeast with a tea cup of lukewarm water, in a bowl suitable for kneading and add the olive oil, the sugar, the raisins, the aniseed or the mastic and one more tea cup of lukewarm water. Add the flour and knead the mixture again, so it will turn into a medium dough. Put the dough on the floured kitchen bench and knead it again strongly. Divide the dough into pieces and shape them like little men by putting nutmegs for their eyes, nose, e.t.c. Spread a little oil on the large baking pan, put the “lazarakia‘’ on the baking pan, sprinkle them with sesame and cover them with a cotton towel. Leave them in a warm place to rise.

Eldress Galaktia of Crete: Prayer to our Lord

Eldress Galaktia of Crete: Prayer to our Lord

«Lord, grant me only humility and silence. I ask nothing else from You. Humility births love for all Your creations. I know that I am the greatest sinner, and no one else in the universe has embittered You as much as I, the despicable one, have. Help me to live with this every day. Do not let the devil fool me into thinking I am something when I am nothing. Grant me only to feel how sinner I am and help me to follow Your commandments to find mercy from Your countless love. Do not let me despair because of my sins but let me rejoice every day because You have mercy on me and will save me because You are compassionate. Do not let me have evil thoughts or judge my fellow human beings. I am to blame for them, and since I am the cause of their sin, I must only judge myself. Lord, Lord, do not deprive me of the river of Your divine mercy. Amen!».
