In this small book, the author, Abbess Eupraxia, talks about life next to the elder, Lavra Archimandrite Naum (Baiborodin; 1927–2017). Many amazing, wonderful things happened constantly, but how can you get used to a miracle... But the greatest miracle was Father himself. Father Naum was a living example of holiness, an example of perfection impossible for a person of our days, an example of complete ruthlessness towards oneself and sacrifice, mercy and endless patience. The published stories capture some of the stories associated with his blessings, his prayers and concerns for his spiritual children.
