Comments on: St. Herman’s Monastery http://evlogeite.com/?p=64 An Eastern Orthodox Blog Tue, 07 Sep 2010 23:27:40 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.2.1 By: Frank Pore http://evlogeite.com/?p=64#comment-15490 Frank Pore Sat, 23 Jan 2010 14:54:20 +0000 http://evlogeite.com/?p=64#comment-15490 I too knew Christopher Amerling in the late '70s when he lived in Durham, NC. He told me much about St. Herman's and the special intellectual bond he held with one of the friars (and the Russian Orthodox Church in general). I last saw Chris in 1980 or thereabouts. I think he left Durham but for what place(s) I don't know. I too knew Christopher Amerling in the late ’70s when he lived in Durham, NC.

My brother and I are thinking of visiting you guys this next winter 2011. Are there any gatherings of anykind we should be there for? my brother and I remember hicking up the mountans while staying there we had a monk as a guide, he became a close friend, and it is thought to belive by my brother that before we encountered a cave he braveley swung a rattle snake around his head that he had grabed befor our feet. another fun story was when I swung off a rope swing built on the side of a hill. End of story I broke it and fell safely on a large bush. these fun times are the memories that will bring me and my brother back to your camp this next winter/summer. feel free to email me if you remember our big family visit My siblings and I all visited your church a while back aprocsamatley 15 to 17 years ago I was wandering if the same monks still worship there, and if the swing up the hill is still there.

There may be other, better ways to contact them, but that one worked for me. Hopefully it will for you as well. I pray that your visit will be fruitful! In Christ, Fr. James Hi James,

Few people visit this blog nowadays and you may not receive a reply through this route. You may want to contact the fathers at the monastery directly. You can find contact information through the website they run for their publishing business: www.sthermanpress.com. I hope that is helpful. Good luck in your quest. God bless, Fr. James Hi Caroline,
