“Only saints can talk about the Saints as they share common Spiritual experiences and understand each other.”

In 1979, Saint Paisios moved from the Hermitage of the Honorable Cross to the Panagouda Cell of Koutloumousiou. It was June 3rd, and the Elder, because of the move, had not yet unpacked his Liturgical Books and did not know exactly the date or the Celebrating Saint. He performed the Services with the Prayer Rope, and when he began to Pray to the Saint of the day, his mind was busy trying to remember who the Saint was. Then in the Chapel, two Saints appeared, one in front and another behind. The one behind was Saint Panteleimon, whom the Elder recognized and would say that he resembled a lot the Icon Venerated at the Skete of Saint Panteleimon. The first was unknown however. Because of his bewilderment, the Saint himself responded: “Elder, I am Loukilianos“. The Elder was not paying attention well and asked: “What was that? Loukianos?” “No, Elder. I am Loukilianos.” And immediately the two Saints disappeared. The Elder was moved and found the June Menaion to confirm if Saint Loukilianos was Celebrating. Indeed it was the day of his Commemoration.
