These are very good points, Fr. Serafim!
Where Have All The Saints Gone?

Hm... (Me of all people! would practicly have a whole pile of holy people)
Now still living holy people are:
-Elder Ephraim of Athos (Former Abbot of the Monastery of Philotheou and spiritual Father of 3 other Athonite Monasteries on Athos.)
-Elder Acacius of the Holy Tranfiguration Monastery. (Spiritual son of Elder Ephraim and Abbot the Chicago Holy Transfiguration Monastery.)
Of all, indeed one of the holiest:
Elder Epiphanius (Efthyvoulou) of Cyprus. (This priest married my parents, and baptized over hundeds of people in Cyprus (non Greek). He is a spiritual Father to many people in the City of Limassol and Hegumen and confessor of the women's monastery of Amasgous. Which was abandone last 2 decades, which Father Epiphanius rebuilt. The money he recieve from the Metropolis to "survive" the half is given to young girls who cannot afford to get married or start a decent marriage, and the other half is given to the rebuilt of ancient monasteries in Cyprus. He wrote so many books, it's countless. He knows Russian, English, French, Spanish, Italian, and Latin. (Of course, Greek) He studied and has a Phd in Psychology (you could say his books resemble a lot to Metropolitan Hierotheus of Nafpactos), and mechanical engineering, which he uses his gifts for the help of the Church. He visited Athos and Russia many times. He has brought the Tradition in Cyprus of the Diving Liturgy of Saint Mark, which he performs twice a year! Though, when he began his spiritual journey to priesthood, he did not enter in a Monastery. Yet, he turned his house into one! (He lives with his father.) And spends most of his time in the Church and the Spiritual Center he opened. If you see him, from afar, you could say he is a hermit. Because, he wears the same old clothed Rasso for over twenty years, and has hair until his knees. (Though it doesn't take long beard or hair to make one a Saint, but in this case, it does.) He would be crying if you hear his lectures. Mostly unbelievable. I visited him (for the first time, me personally) and he gave a whole pile of books he wrote or his spiritual children wrote for free! If you saw his office, it's filled with books and Icons on the walls, you could barely move in there. He also was a spiritual son to Elder Sophronius Sakharov of Essex. (Another contemporary Saint of the 20th Century.)
Forgive my long talk....
but if one person desires to meet contemporary Saints that are still alive, we must look for them. They wont come blessing us and telling us they're saints. Though, sadly, there are people today who don't aknowledge that is possible to find Grace within World Orthodoxy, but what is surprising there are more and more Saints that are being revealed to the World, after their dormition that prooves that they are Graceful and Saintly.

(Here I am again Sorry...)
But I forgot to write down the contemporary Saints of the 20th Century:
-Elder Sophronius of Essex (Spiritual Son and Disciple of Saint Silouan of Athos.)
-Elder Saint Nicholas Planas (His everyday life was the Church. He has been glorified from the 80's.)
-Saint Nectarius of Aegina (Practicly most of everyone know who is this Champion of Orthodoxy.)
-Saint Philaret of New York (Glorified by the AROC, truly a holy figure, that actually looks a little bit like Elder Ephraim of Arizona 
)
-Elder James of Evvia ("Iakovos") (Truly a man that knew the Saints of God from a young age, immigrated from Asia Minor.)
-Elder Philotheus of Greece (Zervakos) (A great defender of Tradition.)
-Elder Herman of Stavrovouni (A true vener of Christ who is Sanctified on the Holy Mountain of Stavrovouni, a greek of Cyprus.)
-Elder Paisius of Athos (Everyone knows his gift of meeting saints himself.)
-Elder Porphyrius of Greece (A great wonderworker and healer. Who years after his death, has appeared to Elder Ephraim of Athos, to go build Greek Monasteries for the Ecumenists. (Because Father Ephraim was a part of the ROCOR, I think, when he first came to America. He didn't make himself part of the Greek Synods, thinking that they are all graceless and heretics.)
-Elder Demetrius Gagastathis (A holy priest who did not want to make part of the Satanic Communists of Greece, who hunted him, and beated him. But Father Dimitri, never gave up.)
-Elder Joseph the Hesychast (Holy and Spiritual Father of Elder Ephraim)
-Elder Sampson of Russia (A great Schema-Monk of Prayer)
-Elder Amphilohius of Russia (A strong confessor of Faith)
(And the romanians have an endless life of holy Elders.)
