by Brotherhood of Dimitsaniton “Gregory the E” · 1982
Summary
The December 1982 issue centres on the Metropolitan’s Christmas message: peace of heart and true freedom beyond materialism. Salvation arises from inner transformation—mastery of passions and practical love—rather than power or knowledge without humility. Families are urged to welcome Christ, reconcile at home and become agents of peace in the community. The spiritual call is paired with pragmatic counsel for forgiveness, gentleness and solidarity, making the feast a starting point for personal and collective renewal.
