  1. Beautiful! What's the soundtrack? It sounds like the monks of Simonopetra, the melody is "Agni Parthene," but the words are different.

  2. It is Angi Parthene in French. How beautiful. Glory to God!

  4. Is it a Seminary or a Monastery? If it's a Monastery, what's with the shaven monks? I mean , even in the "liberal" OCA, most monks have beards.
