Bulgaria - Greece
Feb. 29 ATHOS - MONASTERY REPUBLIC. The main cause of Athos depopulation seems to be the reluctance of young men these days, to adopt the monastic life. Those who join the Athos community go back to the world after a year or two. Contentment is written all over the face of Monk Isidoros, mayor of Kafsokalivia Skiti, because these two young novices recently joined his dwindling community. But the question is, how long will they stay with him?
