An update.

Hello everyone,

Doubt you remember me, but I am currently a member of the RCC but I've been considering conversion. The problem is, I live in Hanoi, Vietnam and there are no Orthodox priests here. I've emailed priests in other countries near me for guidance, but I've yet to receive a reply from anyone.

I'm also married and my wife, a "liberal" Catholic, doesn't seem too eager to convert.

Anyways, I just wanted to say hello. I still stop in from time to time and I have been reading about Orthodoxy.

There is apparently a Russian Orthodox Church in Vung Tau, Vietnam known as "Our Lady of Kazan Parish". I do not know much past that though.

Thanks. I've heard about this parish but I would have to take a plane there and I have not been able to find a schedule of services or contact information.

I'm thinking about contacting the Russian Embassy here to see if a priest is available.

@Damooster

about contacting the Russian Embassy - best idea.

in Vung Tau - Better to try to get in touch by phone or any other way before visiting. There is not so clear with that "parish".

Just some information about Parish in in Vung Tau - parishioner from it told they have no priest. Priests visit only sometimes. So if you need priest so try to find in other place.
Imho better to ask somebody engl-speaking from this forum to connect with priest from their parishes.

I really appreciate you finding out that information for me!

I'm still searching for a priest that I can communicate with.
