The Greek-language edition of In God's Hands will be released by Porphyra Editions in time for Pascha (Easter), 2015. Transplant remains more controversial in the Church in Greece, and I was honored to learn that Bishop Nikolaos Hatzinikolaou helped my fearless translator, Polyxeni, locate two professors from the University of Athens, Faculty of Medicine, to write beautiful forwards to introduce the Greek edition. May God bless their efforts! I am currently working on a follow-up chapter, a kind of postscript to let readers know how Mariana is doing these days. I'll post it here when it's finished. 267 people reached

Ancient Faith blog now online!
Dear friends,
I just wanted to let you know that Mariana is robust and growing like a weed (especially in the sense that she is wild!) and that our family, thank God, is well as we hope you are.
I've begun a new blog on the Ancient Faith site, and it focuses on passing along the Faith to our children (like the podcast of the same name, Raising Saints.) I hope to see you over there.
Here are few recent photos of Mariana -- the first is not beautiful, but is noteworthy because you can see the windows of her old PICU room in the background. We've come a long way, by the grace of God. The second is from the first day of Pre-K, which she is loving.

April is Organ & Tissue Donor Awareness Month
April is National Organ & Tissue Donor Awareness Month!
Our gratitude for Mariana's good health compels us to ask you to register.
I know that people have a lot of worries about becoming organ donors, but we must always allow love to overcome fear. Millions of people await transplants, for themselves and for their loved ones. We can save lives on our way out of this world. Please register today.
Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one's life for his friends. (John 15:13)

amazon
I searched my name last night on Amazon.com and guess what? In God's Hands is for sale as an ebook! I know that a lot of my friends rely on the text-to-voice ebooks, and they'll be happy to hear that they can ingest the book without ever having to touch paper!
If you're an amazon fan, here's my official Amazon Author Page --

Interview on Ex Libris!
Bobby Maddex was kind enough to interview me for his Ancient Faith podcast, Ex Libris.
It was a great conversation about In God's Hands -- we talked about Luka and Mariana, and why I was writing a blog in the first place, and how and why we turned that blog into a book.
I'm so happy to get the word out, as I want people to know that this book exists, in case they find someone sitting in a dark place who needs some company.
If you listen closely, you'll probably notice that I'm talking fast. That's my usual pace, when I'm not consciously trying to slow down...
You'll find the interview archived on Ancient Faith Radio:http://www.ancientfaith.com/podcasts/...
Thanks, Bobby!
