Mother Alexandra, of Ellwood City
Back to Mother Alexandra. Mo. Charitina began to tell us about the founder of the monastery. I believe it is the first English speaking Orthodox monastery in North America, and the first community of nuns. She is buried there, and Fr. and I prayed at her grave, saying a prayer of thanksgiving of course, for this holy place, and for being miraculously brought there.
