Notes
1. In case you want to know more about Saint Eumenios Saridakis (✝1999), watch the Three-Part video series on the channel:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O-U-NHjbMIAYou'll be able to understand better why His Eminence uses phrases such as:
"These words were spoken behind Eumenios’ back.
He wasn’t listening." (at 06:36)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uNoMSZ0T47M (at 4:50),or, most importantly, the inexplicable heartfelt joy Saint Eumenios has for everything of God.
2. More on what happened during His Eminence's and Saint Eumenios' visit to Russia and Ukraine:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQxZAij8wocGod has prevented many wars that men were eager to wage.
3. One of my favorite moments was when Saint Eumenios
appeared to a man of God and joyfully told him to relay a message to His Eminence
"to not overdo it with imitating my voice.’"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mTYrvKZ_LkQ (at 1:08)4. At 03:04,
"With a mix of humorous and serious events [taking place during the trip"
I think that the event in the British museum certainly falls under this category.

(at 1:18:00)5. At 04:45,
“It would be a pity if he [Saint Sophrony] doesn’t bid him farewell,
if he doesn’t bless the relics [of the respoed].”The use of the word "relics" doesn't imply that the reposed was a saint.
In this case, it's used by His Eminence as an alternative to "dead body."6. There is a translated sermon on the life of Saint John the Merciful:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vMT3SJWEuiI
Helps you understand how you can "attract" God's mercy and protection in what is to come.“Blessed is he who understands the poor and needy;
The Lord will deliver him in an evil day.”
