“The lives of parents are the first teachers for children,” underlined Archbishop Makarios of Australia, in his video message on the Instagram social networking site.
The Archbishop shared an instructive story, which he experienced during his time as a hieromonk, and made a paternal appeal to parents to teach their children not with words, but with their deeds.
“Children note and copy that which they see from their parents, what they hear and what they experience every day. This is why parents must be very careful,” he pointed out.
