I'm a brand new Orthodox Catechumen and I was wondering if anybody knew where to find certain things I'll need for Baptism as well as answer a couple of questions.
where does one even find a white baptismal robe for an adult convert? (I've seen plenty for infants but not that many for adults)
Where does one find baptismal candles? What are the specifications of one can and cannot be used?
Also, I've known I wanted to be Orthodox for a while so I already have my patron saint narrowed down to a top 5, and my first choice is someone who isn't normally pictured in Icons solo, normally its the entire family, does our patron saint have to be alone in the Icon we bring to our baptism? Should I cross this saint off the list for that reason?
