Saint Athanasius of Athos:  the founder of the Great Lavra on the Holy Mountain was able to build the large monastery with gold from the  fuure Emperor Nicephorus Phocas.  Initially, the saint didn’t want to accept the gift but did and many have benefited.  The Emperor’s gold and the saints prayers…just like Martha and Mary…equally part of the building of Christ’s Church.
