Deeply concerned and grief-stricken, but also filled with unshakable faith in love and grace of God, we address all priesthood, monks and faithful people of our Holy Church, as well as all the people of good will, on the occasion of the disastrous floods and terrible suffering of numerous families in Serbia, Republic of Srpska and the whole region. And we call upon everyone, and above all upon our clergy, to show both Christian and human solidarity with all the victims and the affected, to actively and committedly participate in the defense of settlements and vitally important objects from the destructive element, and to provide shelter, aid in food, clothing and medicines, finances and any other support for their neighbors. In particular, we urge priests and monks to multiply their prayers, to perform daily prayers of supplication during the forthcoming days of heavy rains and to be front row with those who testify Christ’s love by helping the rescue of the suffering brothers and sisters. As a good example we would like to point out relentless rescue of the people performed by the state leadership and civil services (army, police, gendarmerie and others), as well as by all our citizens who participate voluntarily in this God-pleasing and noble action, often exposing their lives to danger.

EDITORIAL San Diego Parish Celebrates Church Slava WE PRAY FOR CONSOLATION, STRENGTH AND GUIDANCE IN THE MIDST OF TRAGEDY The destructive floods in Serbia, Republika Srpska and other surrounding regions left us stunned: such a great natural force of enormous destructive magnitude. Images of people climbing to their roof tops waiting to be rescued or of those less fortune ones who were washed down by the powerful stream in the streets trying to catch something, anything, to avoid being pulled into this enormous lake of filthy water covering and breaking into streets, parks, homes, businesses, hospitals, churches and just about anything in its way. Rescue efforts are still on the way. The Holy Assembly of Bishops of the Serbian Orthodox Church has issued an official statement calling our faithful to respond with humanitarian efforts and to route all donations to the Patriarch Pavle Fund for the purpose of assistance to those affected by the floods. Instruction details are published in this issue of The Path of Orthodoxy. The response is commendable of our parishes throughout North and South America. The expression of faith in action, solidarity, care and brotherly love are qualities to emulate and take to heart. These efforts will have to continue well into the summer and beyond as the rebuilding of devastated lives, homes and infrastructure will be an ongoing process for the next several years. A tragedy of this proportion brings to mind many questions. Why? Why Serbia and the Serbian regions? Haven’t we suffered enough already? Unfortunately, no easy answer can be given; no answer will satisfy our search for justice in this fallen world. I can say that this and similar tragic events in our modern technologically advanced age teach us that we are still finite and On Sunday, May 4th, 2014, with the Bratso Krsic, the parish priest, Deacon Paul inadequate human beings.
