Drita: An Albanian Girl Discovers Her Ancestors' Faith As this beautifully illustrated story opens, we meet Drita, a young
Albanian girl whose family has lived for years under repressive
communist rule. After decades of religious oppression, Drita is finally
able to discover the faith of her ancestors. As she experiences God’s

of missionaries, she turns her heart toward Christ. At the story’s
joyful conclusion, Drita is baptized and lives in an Albania where all
are now free to openly worship, praise, and glorify God in His Church.

From I-ville to You-ville I-ville—a Kingdom where pride and selfishness dwell, and where people live by
the motto “Me first!” You-ville—a Kingdom where humility and kindness
have their home, and where people put the good of others before their own.
This
is a story of a young boy named Stubborn, as he strives to become the first
person of I-ville to make the difficult journey to the beautiful,
joy-filled Kingdom of You-ville, and to become a citizen there.
As we join Stubborn in his adventures, we learn, along
with him, profound lessons in how to struggle against bad thoughts and
feelings. Drawn from the teachings of the beloved Elder Paisios of Mt. Athos,
Greece (1924–1994), these lessons can be of tremendous spiritual benefit for
young and old alike. The journey of young Stubborn is one that all of us must
take, and which all of us can accomplish—if only we can shrink our “I” and put
“You” first!
From I-ville to You-ville has now entered its fifth
printing in Greece, where a theatrical adaptation of it is widely performed by
school and theater groups.
