  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Please pray my cousin, Nena, and family. She is 13 and just diagnosed with cancer a few weeks ago, Rhabdomyosarcoma. She is very depressed and has given up on life. :( They are not faithful church goers so please pray for that change also. Thank you.

Lord have mercy on Nena. Remember and heal her infirmities, Lord, and guide her on the way.

Theotokos, intercede for Nena. Pray for her. Empower her guardian angel.

My oldest daughter and her family are in the Orthodox Church of America. Please pray that the rest of my family will be receptive to the Orthodox Church. I long to be part of an Orthodox parish. I am an inquirer, and have not been able to do more than study and rarely visit my daughter in an Orthodox setting. My husband is very opposed. We are Episcopalians. Please pray for us.:crosseo:

This is my Mom. I didn't even know she had posted here. :wave:

Any updates?

Not really. Mom still wants to go to the local OCA parish and Dad doesn't really want anything to do with it.

They seem pretty happy with their Episcopal parish, but not so happy with TEC at the national level right now.

May God soften his heart!

Let your mom know we'd love to hear from her more. :)

I haven't posted around here in a while. Please keep me in your prayers.

I've been on anxiety/depression meds since December. It took me a few weeks and I seemed to adjust well. However, they worked a little too well, as they have made me emotionally numb. While I'm glad to not have to deal with the anxiety, this isn't a good thing. It's making me fairly apathetic to the point where I'm not doing anything I don't really have to. Unfortunately, going to church has fallen into that category, and I felt I needed to rectify that and take action.

So, I had the bright idea of attempting to wean myself off of my meds without consulting my doctor a few weeks ago. Yes. I know. This was not the brightest idea I've ever had. So, tonight has not been good. I've gone from emotional numbness to being a complete emotional wreck. It's like a switch has suddenly been flipped on. I started crying over something that never would have really bothered me before I was ever on meds.

Anyway, I didn't even think to tell my husband I was doing this until tonight either. He looked up the withdrawal symptoms, and I certainly have them. I figure I need all the prayers I can get. Thanks.

I could use some prayers for family and work. I've been missing a lot of small but critical details at work, and one of my teenagers is going through a rough patch with health and school. Thanks, may everyone have a blessed Lent

Please pray for me. It is now Monday and I have had bronchitis since Wednesday night. I can't sleep, it's hard to even pray because I've lost most of my voice. Thank you.
