    I've recently become an Orthodox, after one year of prayer and discernment, and some other years of being called by the Lord. And now that I'm preparing to be Chrismated and to partake in the Holy Misteries, I've come across the witness of the Holy Royal Martys and St. Elizabeth thanks to you. God bless you. They touched my heart deeply. Thank you so much. I feel an enormous joy for being part of the one true Church which is built also on the blood of these Holy Martyrs. While watching the footage from the St Mary Church in Jerusalem I felt like it's a home also to me now. Only God knows if I will visit it some day, but spiritually, those who go pray there, the sisters and mothers, the fathers and and all who celebrate the Liturgy there, and me and my people here in this corner of the world will be united in the immaculate Body and the precious Blood of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. Let him be glorified together with God the Father, the only lover of mankind and the life giving Holy Spirit, from now and and forever. Amen

    Normally people who live the high society life are shallow and self absorbed, but not this woman. She saw tragedy and heartache in her family and in the lives of those she ministered to. Not only extremely beautiful on the outside but the inside as well. A truly amazing person. The video didn’t go into the horrible way she died and I was bracing myself for that, but instead mentioned other things about her I didn’t know. This was so well put together and the story was told in a very honouring way. Thank you.

Now she also rest at the Mount of Olives with her Aunt.

The goal of Cultural Marxism is to destabilize the normal by introducing the "new normal" until chaos ensues. I am sure a channel which promotes family and faith is unwelcome in this new normal. It is said there are platforms other than YT. I do not know about such things but I see advertisements for online sites that do history and documentary.

She remembered all of this I only wish she had kept the newspaper articles of the times when all of this happened while they lived in Milwaukee Wisconsin.

One would think that nuns would have been spared of the bloodshed that happened to the Romanov family; I guess people thought Elizabeth was a threat to certain people so she had to be murdered just like her sister. Such a shame that happened. May she rest in peace. I hope I can visit Jerusalem one day to see where she is buried. This was such a beautiful tribute to Saint Elizabeth.

      Ella was influential in persuading her sister Alix to marry Nicholas II, her husband's nephew. Queen Victoria did not approve of Ella's encouragement of the Russian marriage. As a young man, the Kaiser was deeply infatuated with Ella. He offered to help her escape after the Russian Revolution. Ella, however, would not accept help from Russia's great enemy. Ella's husband was not popular because he was a very stern administrator of Moscow.

    I'm so proud of my Catholic and Orthodox roots. When I was young, ever since I read the life of St Joan of Arc, I had a great desire of reading more about the Saints, both from the East and the West, with a great desire to share some of their stories to friends. There's so much one can learn from their collective life-stories and spiritual journeys. St Bernadette, the visionary of Our Lady at Lourdes, France, once said upon reading such stories, "Don't tell me about their virtues, tell me of their faults and flaws and how they overcame them!" If only more churches of various faiths knew more about these people and chose them as positive role-models at this day and age, they might not have a need to declare needless wars on others. Mother Teresa of Calcutta and her fellow Sisters of Charity treat people, regardless of their beliefs and non-beliefs everyday. I'm sure St Elizabeth would also aid her as well by numerous means, from sending some of her nuns to sending food, medicine and other provisions as well as acts as other acts of charity and mercy. I had been told Sister Ella was told of the story of her namesake, St Elizabeth of Hungary, when she was a child, noted for her acts of charity as well. Some of my favorite miracles attributed was when she was confronted by her husband, who noticed she had a bulging cloak full of food, medicine and other items to give to the poor. He asked her what she had in her cloak, she replied there were roses. Considering this was in the middle of winter, he didn't believe her. He opened her cloak and out came roses! He felt she was doing God's work. He also was notified she was treating a leper in their bed. He was about to expel the man out when instead of seeing a leper in their bed, he encountered Jesus crucified in place of the leper. He then ordered all the servants in the household to help their mistress in her ministry and they were most happy to oblige.

      @@angelaberni8873 True...like most saints had their trials and triumphs, what some theological scholars described as 'spiritual dryness' or 'dark nights of the soul'. It's best described as when one feels God (as they see God) is so distant to the point of feeling abandoned and yet God is very close. But during those periods does one feel their faith is being tested like that of taking raw ore of metal, it has to go through fire in order to be refined and purified before it's put to use. Whenever St Teresa of Avila (foundress of the Carmelite order of nuns), encountered any nun in her convent who felt depressed, she would remind them, "A sad nun makes a bad nun!" One of her spiritual daughters, St Elizabeth of the Trinity, used to have her own 'spiritual exercises' long before she felt called to enter the cloister. One of these was called 'the Clock of the Passion'...it involved whenever she found herself awakened in the middle of the night and unable to sleep, she took a mental note of the time and meditated quietly on the said hour on which Christ suffered prior to His Crucifixion, from the end of the Last Supper to prior to His agony in the Garden in Gethsemane betrayal and arrest, While in the garden, he told Peter, James and John, "My soul is sorrowful, even unto death...keep watch while I pray...." And as He prayed, His disciples fell asleep. When Jesus noted this, He chided them, "Couldn't you at least stay with Me for at least an hour? Pray that you won't fall into temptation...Simon, Listen to Me...Satan will come upon you like a farmer does with wheat, who separates the grain from the chaff....the flesh is willing, but the spirit is weak. Peter countered, "But, Rabbi, I won't abandon you and am willing to suffer and die with You...." The others added their agreement as well, but Jesus warned Peter, "Before the rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three times!"

The Romanovs considered the divine rulers of Russia and were not prepared to share power with anyone. The communists were no better, except they released the people from their slavery. If Nicholas had followed through with the plans of his grandfather, Russia may be a totally different country today.
