Christ the Savior Orthodox Church - New Academic Year / Boy Scout Awards

Faith and love which are gifts of the Holy Spirit are such great and powerful means that a person who has them can easily, and with joy and consolation, go the way Jesus Christ went. Besides this, the Holy Spirit gives man the power to resist the delusions of the world so that although he makes use of earthly good, yet he uses them as a temporary visitor, without attaching his heart to them. But a man who has not got the Holy Spirit, despite all his learning and prudence, is always more or less a slave and worshipper of the world.

So how can I experience this sober intoxication of the Holy Spirit?

What is the formal way to greet a priest or a bishop?
