Sts. Cyril & Methodius and The Garden in June Video

This has been an eventful week.  Revisions of two of our books have been sent to the printer, awaiting production of finished proofs and two new videos are available on our You Tube channel.

Episode Eighteen in The Lives of the Saints – Second Series, celebrating Saints Cyril and Methodius was uploaded last night.   The running time is just over 15 minutes.

Labelled in the 19th C. by Roman Catholic Pope Leo XIII as Apostles of the Slavs and known in the Eastern Church as “Enlighteners of the Slavs,” these two men created a new alphabet and produced Bible translations which brought the New Testament and much of the Old to the Slavic peoples in south central and Eastern Europe for the first time.

Working before the split between Rome and Constantinople that still plagues Christianity, Cyril and Methodius enjoyed the support of both jurisdictions.

The episode includes many illustration to usually seen in the Western Church.  The two saints are honored in the East and the West by the naming of churches and monasteries.

Regular readers of this blog know that I am a great fan, if not to say, a fanatical one, of the latest developments in the world of petunias, especially those produced as Supertunias and the trademarked and patented line known as Surfinias.  Last month AIC Videos offered a 3-minute glimpse of my garden and its features.  To demonstrate the spectacular growth the my trailing petunias I produced a 1-minute update showing the growth.
