Face to Face

"To love another person is to see the face of God."
+ Victor Hugo, Les Miserables

"For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known. And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love."
+ 1 Corinthians 13:12-13

"The Orthodox Church  considers the essence of its mission to be to restore man to his original dignity and beauty "in the image and likeness of his Creator."
+ Third Preconciliar Pan-Orthodox Conference, Chambesy, October 28 - November 6, 1986
