Oh my....I didn't know what to think of this at first since it literally was just striking to see it - but when thinking of how imperialism can impact/shape the Church and leaders in it can act more so like what you'd see in Star Wars leaders from the Empire, yeah - it was brilliant

Some others I found that had me rolling..
Re-reading, I think I must have missed this one.
I went to two of the Bridegroom services, the Wed. Holy Unction service (which took forever of course with a large attendance), Thursday Divine Liturgy, Service of the Holy Passion, Royal Hours, the Apokathelosis service, Lamentations service, Saturday Divine Liturgy, Orthros of the Resurrection, Pascha of course, Agape Vespers - and during between times helped with all the flowers for the Epitaphios, a huge basket of bay leaves and rose petals, the myrr-bearer's baskets, setting up various things and cleaning up after the picnic, and whatever else I've forgotten. There were lots of others who did the same or other tasks, not bragging by any means. We were on our feet for almost a week, LOL. It was glorious.
But this meme is hilarious, looking back.
So it sounds like you might be willing to finally get halfway serious about Pascha by next year?
You know though, that just further convinces me that priests must be Jedi Knights in disguise. How else can they still be STANDING after such a grueling schedule!?!!?
I was wondering that my self. Our Priest's voice was definitely giving out and breaking by about 1 am on Easter Morning.
