Elder Ephraim will be talking on the topic \u201cThe value of the family in the present age.\u201d The talk will be given in Greek with simultaneous translation into English, French, Russian, Romanian, Georgian, and Arabic, and will begin at 8 pm Athens Time, 1 pm US Eastern Standard Time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Brian Brown, President of IOF, who will be moderating the webinar, stated:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cWe are proud to be hosting this terrific event that will allow people to get to hear from Elder Ephraim, one of the leading lights not just of Orthodoxy, but Christianity in general. He is unafraid to speak truth to power and to bring wisdom to the social crises affecting Western culture.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Elder Ephraim was born in 1956 in Cyprus and is a graduate of the Theological School of the University of Athens. He is a leading voice of Christianity and Orthodoxy and is an outspoken critic of the \u201cabsurdities\u201d of modern Western Culture. As he said back in 2018 in a <a href=\"https:\/\/ocl.org\/abbot-ephraim-of-mt-athos-speaks-with-tnh\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">message<\/a> to Greek Orthodox Christians in America:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201c[W]e feel for modern people who are living in this time of absurdity, of the broad acceptance of sin, of the disintegration of the human person, the deconstruction of every value and institution. We hope and pray that you will remain faithful to the traditions of our Church; that, internally, you will live the life in Christ, which recognizes the value of people and gives meaning to their life.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Vatopedi Monastery, founded in the 4<sup>th<\/sup> century, is one of twenty Eastern Orthodox monasteries on Mt. Athos, the \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vatopedi.gr\/videoposts\/to-agion-oros-i-kivotos-tis-orthodoxias\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ark of Orthodoxy<\/a>.\u201d The current monastery buildings date back to the 10<sup>th<\/sup> century and now house over 100 monks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>\u201cMt. Athos is one of the holiest places in the world. You can literally feel the presence of God there,\u201d Brown stated. \u201cAnd the monasteries on Mt. Athos, especially Vatopedi, are some of the strongest advocates for the family in the world.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>To register for this unique event, please click <a href=\"https:\/\/us06web.zoom.us\/meeting\/register\/tZEvdu-qqzkpEtcy9L8gBECd_JfZ7cut7sIf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">here<\/a>.
