Fr. Grigoriou:
“You have to become like a ‘bulldozer‘…
Like a mechanism that you use to slowly, slowly bring them to Christ, without them realizing it, without them noticing this.
In the beginning, with a lot of love… and with very great patience… Pretending that you do not hear nor see their deeds…
And, without showing that you are doing so, you have to struggle to attract them on the right path…”
