Sacrum Silentium said:

I've been busy...

DC on MySpace. DC on Wordpress.

DC on OrthodoXCircle...

The stats are booming, and we haven't paid a dime for advertising. We broke 1500 threads and 70 members have registered... and there's a monthly newsletter on the way that we're hoping will be both digital and hard copies.

You should definitely check it out.

Trying to juggle the two forums right now...I am also a member of Orthodoxcircle... never go there though... I do not know anyone...and the ones I know they are never logged on....

Got to stop coming here and start go back and get Aria's prayer rope.... and start praying .....
Saturdays and Sundays are deffenately off days...

Good job Silentium....after that we should call you somehing different like .... desert father calling... for you are doing so much talking...

Hmm. I have a very good idea for some stitching involving a prayer of the Church. On the downside, I'd need to get it done by Sunday!

Think I can do it?

btw, I'm still stitching on those psalms. If you'd like a look, there's a recent picture here.

Good morning to those who will at least attend forgiveness vespers with their hub, to those who will see Bishop Kallistos Ware* or his church in Oxford, to those who spend their time running DC and lurking both TAW and OC, to those who wish their father converted and are stitching on those psalms, and to other friends.


*such a smart man. You're lucky to go and see him.

That is great, Khaleas.

I hope he can walk after Forgiveness Vespers.

The first time I experienced that Holy Service, I had to go and see my chiropractor. I was stiff for a week.

Unfortunately not many people show up to Forgiveness Vespers at our church... They feel like 'they did their thing' already at DL... plus this year we're having a huge Maslenitsa as it's also the birthday week of 4 of our older parishoners.

Forgiveness vespers scares me, for some reason, plus the fact it's a 1-hour trip by bus and metro to get to church that I don't feel like doing twice if I'm going to Liturgy the next day. I think I'm afraid I'll start crying or something like I heard in the description I read lolll.

see you all tomorrow.

Morning all and hurrah for work sick days! Yup I'm feeling grand, yippie!

We always did Forgiveness Vespers right after liturgy, so that we wouldn't all have to make two trips.

Father is thinking about doing that this year since people are going to be at church for longer than normal after liturgy. I thought that would be a great idea... although all those prostrations on a full tummy... heartburn galore LOL...

Evening all.

thanks Aria for the reminder...

good night to all...

Daylight savings, yay. Ours changes sometime soon, not exactly sure when (it's often the same time as Western Easter) but we get an extra hour of sleep - YAY

How do you get an extra hour since we get an hour less? The time zones don't change...

I'm taking mom and bro to the airport tomorrow (lovely 3 hrs in each direction little trip) and then I get to go home to hang out with hubs. We're going to get Indian food tomorrow (I've been craving it since he left in January but didn't want to go alone) and then Saturday night we're going out for a nice dinner before Lent begins.

Philothei

The time zones don't change, but i'm in the southern hemisphere Daylight savings is dependent on seasons, and we've just started fall.

it makes sense Kyrie... Lucky you I saw your weather report your temp is about 26 Celcius... how great... I cannot wait for the summer to come...
