Blessed Euphemia of Serbia: The Life of an Apostolic Eldress
By their nature women are called by God to reflect the spirit of other-worldliness in this temporal world. Although often hidden from common view, by virtue of their humility, holy and righteous women have spiritually illumined the path to the heavenly realms in all times.Among them shines the image of this modern-day heroine livingly written by her devoted spiritual daughters.
Mother Euphemia had a wondrous charm and power of spirit. Herexternal appearance was a reflectionof her prayerful disposition. Her outward activity was boundless: as a young lay ascetic she preached the Word of God from village to village; she guided her large sisterhood and hundreds of lay people through the physical and spiritual dangers of two World Wars and the communist yoke.
