Hi all,
I want to convert to Orthodoxy. After a few straight Sundays of Divine Liturgy (previously had been going only sporadically), all of the reading of the past 7 months, and my first Great Vespers, I am certain. I am thinking of calling the priest this week, before Vespers, to let him know who I am, why I'm there, and of my interest in converting. I'm nervous about it, and I was wondering if anyone could give me an idea of what to expect... also, I have a question (well, many questions, but this one) about kissing the cross. Is this something only Orthodox should do? I have been leaving and not going up to the front because I'm uncertain. Thank you for reading
