Ash Wednesday, Still No Common Knowledge of Orthodoxy

[Thekla]

I come from a country where not being an Orthodox is quite uncommon, so that is all new to me. I have lived in the USA, though, and I too have noticed the lack of the common knowledge of our faith - plus the lack of desire to share about it, sadly. Most people looked absolutely dubious when I mentioned about being Orthodox.

Hello

and that's your opportunity !

Yes, definitely! I agree. I am actually in Bible school right now and I am already a full-time missionary, sharing God's Word and the Orthodox faith. God bless you!

Thank you! May God bless you ten fold.

Jaelyn Liza, are you Orthodox?

Jaelyn, where in Russia are you? I'm currently living in Moscow.

If we would like to see the Church spread throughout our land, there is only one key means by which this can happen, but it is not being done for some reason. It is something that can be done only by bishops, so it is ultimately their prerogative. Ask them why they don't or won't do it.

All of the above would require Orthodoxy in America to adopt the greatest heresy of the 21st century: ORGANIZATION.

Organization is a western heresy

Jaelyn Liza, are you Orthodox?

I think so, she changed her Cross to a Tribar a little while back for a day or so
