Good evening to all my Christian brothers and sisters, both Orthodox and non-Orthodox alike.
As the title says urgent prayers are needed ASAP. My church in Atlanta, GA. is also home to a precious little girl by the name of Mary Evelyn King. She is about 5 years old and is dying. The little princess has been fighting bone cancer for much of her young life.
A couple of years ago our small church was overjoyed at the news of apparent remission, and collectively trusted the Lord had healed her. Sadly it seems as though the Lord is either testing us or really wants His daughter to come home.
Mary Evelyn has shown people much older than her a faith that many can only hope to have. Therefore the most earnest prayers are really for her loved ones, as she will be with the Lord for eternity. Please pray hardest for her parents Mark and Edna King.
Yours in Christ,
Ian (Baptism Name John the Apostle)
P.S. You may see this email pasted on other Orthodox Christian websites

Excellence of character, then, is a state concerned with choice, lying in a mean relative to us, this being determined by reason and in the way in which the man of practical wisdom would determine it. Now it is a mean between two vices, that which depends on excess and that which depends on defect.
