„Bucură, Sfinte Andreie, poporul ortodox de aici şi de pretutindeni!“

Abstract

The saint is not a subject of study of textbook, nor of synaxar, nor of book conjunctures. The saint is the fulfillment of the human being, because the full way of life of the person, by the grace of the Most Holy Trinity, is holiness. From the life of the saints in general, and from that of the Holy Apostle Andrew in particular, we identify three healing dimensions, healing of soul and body and in times of pandemic, because the pandemic is to be defeated, if we listen to the soul doctor and the doctor body and we have an orderly life. The first healing dimension is the teaching, and it is the enlightenment of our thoughts, words, and our speeches, which must be seasoned with the salt of the gospel. The second dimension is, without a doubt, the thaumaturgical one, and the third dimension detached from the life of the Holy Apostle Andrew is the philanthropic one. The following text aims to highlight the healing effect of the accomplishment of these three works, as disciples of St. Andrew the Apostle, for ourselves and for those for whose benefit we perform them.
