So not only did I have a speaking test today, but with a Syrian who it turns it... is Orthodox!


It came about in the part where I had to discuss my hobbies (hobbies? Who has time for hobbies! ) and I mentioned that I go to a parish that's an hour and a half from here because they worship in... English!
(That and because the community is far away enough that I don't get a million questions about being military which I appreciate - but that's for the next speaking test)

And at the end when it got to directions, she says in Arabic, "You said earlier that you go to an Orthodox church on Sundays. How do you get there from here?"
HOOYAH!

nice! all of my Pashto teachers were Muslim. although they did help me translate the Our Father, the Creed, and certain prayers into Pashto.

Ultimate definition of killing two birds with one stone:
-Going to Liturgy.
-The parish of said Liturgy is about half Arab.

A quick hello before I disappear again. Life is full, Church is great, kids are growing up .
Hopefully I might have time occasionally to catch up with old friends here. Nice to still see some familiar faces

Oh, wow. How is life down under?

We are battling fires in the West now that we are in midsummer heat.

Hello! Are any of your kids heading up for the GOA youth conference this year? I am!

 

[Anhelyna]

Kyriaki - where have you been ??

Silence from you since you were over here.

How are you ?

 

[ArmyMatt]

dang, this is like a little reunion of sorts. what up people I have not seen in a while?

 

[SeraphimSarov]

Ohai guise

 

[Anhelyna]

I'll say it here - I'm running away for a few days .

This short trip had been planned for a good few weeks so I can actually celebrate Dormition Our temporary priest can't come up to us , the local Russian Priest is not in Town then, SO I'm heading elsewhere and coming back on the Sunday night.

After the week I've had [ there were another 2 deaths !! ], I am in need of some of what our priest terms 'spiritual refreshment' so that's just what I'm heading away for , some good Liturgy , a chance to unburden myself of a lot of 'stuff' Confession and then some relaxation and time with a good friend.

See you all next week
