bump... Hi All- :wave: If you're still on the fence about this conference (really? I mean have you seen the speaker list? :thumbsup:) keep in mind that Early Bird registration ends tomorrow. Enter coupon code: EARLYBIRD to receive 10% off any individual conference ticket. Also those with...

There is also this list from the OSB but it's 12 pages long... or this one if you're looking for a 2 year plan.

Congratulations on your engagement and on become the OCF president. I held that position at my university almost 7 years ago now. I think since then the national OCF office can offer many more resources, programing and support to chapters than they could years ago and it's so exciting to see...

I just got back from the recent Pilgrimage with Bishop Savas. You can read the "official" blog about it here It's the only time I have been so I can't compare it to other times of year, we didn't really experience oppressive crowds (and I know our guide was working hard to accomplish that) but...

but I should say that i am hearing great feedback from attendees, I went in 2008 and it is a very edifying experience (and the resolutions were not better).

I actually think that was the strongest of the resolutions: 2) a resolution calling for peace in the world, 3) a resolution in support of the work of the recent Episcopal Assembly of Canonical Bishops in North and Central America, 4) a resolution recognizing the heroic sacrifices of...

Truly my pleasure. With God's Grace this will be a great resource for so many!

Very interesting question. One of my seventh grade (sunday school students) actually asked me the same thing not too long ago. I basically said "the same way it happens now and that's a discussion better had with your parents!" I know I'm a wuss, but birds and bees are not part of my...

Hi Guys! If you teach Sunday School, are raising Orthodox children or home school there is a new resource that I want to encourage you to check out: Illumination Learning. The creator, a home schooling mom to four (and my friend :)) said this about the launch of this cool new site: Over the...

Congratulations! Many years to you and your mother!!! :crosseo:

Hi Chris, I'm sorry I don't have any info to offer about your documents as I've only been involved in US weddings, but I wish you the very best in you wedding and your embrace of Orthodoxy.

It can be really hard if you don't currently have friends you can turn to in your area (I know this first hand) Although you are probably busy with school check out Meetup.com you find groups of people based on interests and geographical location. You can find activities that cost nothing...

Figured I weigh in although I haven't posted much lately. I was born and raised Orthodox. I'm probably more religious than the rest of my immediate family and yet I'm "not Orthodox enough". I fail even when I know better, and I don't try even when I know I should. The internet is great, it...

Lord Have Mercy!

I am completely horrified that this attack took place. IMHO the issue is not that it is horrible to attack an Orthodox Priest with a tire iron it's horrible that anyone is being attached with a tire iron. The fact that the victim is a Priest just adds another level of sadness to the whole...

It is my understanding that suicide is an unpardonable sin (the only one). Because all sins can be forgiven if we ask but because suicide is simultaneously the sin and the end of ones life there is no opportunity for repentance...

Thanks Gents

Is "many years" the correct Russian greeting/congratulations for someone newly married? If so how do you say it in Russian (correctly and phonetically) if not what is the correct expression? Thank you!!

Lord Have Mercy.
