In this photo, a White Dove rests upon Peter after his baptism.
The Serbian student Petros Restovitch of Belgrade. Who was
an avowed atheist and unbaptised up until age 19, found his
faith and asked to be baptised at Chilandarion monastery of
Mt.Athos. At the baptism, a friend of his took a picture of him.
It was at that very moment that God permitted the appearance
of something from His invisible Grace to be revealed in the
photo that was developed later. Everyone observed in
astonishment and holy wonder, a white dove perched on the
head of the newly enlightened young man!
There are no words to describe how moved this young man
was, upon seeing this photo! The event occured in 1980
at the Holy Monastery of Chilandarion on Mt. Athos.
