Re: NatlGeo:"Jesus" special issue
That's funny ! But you are quite right - now that I think about it. I don't watch TV but one always hears of programs like you described. Ridiculous. And you're RIGHT - they always bring these out at the two major holidays, so as to throw cold water on the Feasts. Extremely good remark about the de...

Re: Lack of churches
You DO have a predicament, eish ! But you know, if one of the Synods, maybe Milan or anyone adventurous, sent a good priest there, automatically, parishioners would collect. It happens naturally. The main problem would be to get someone skilled at handling difficult situations who is also personabl...

NatlGeo:"Jesus" special issue
This is the 1454th topic in this Forum - good work, everyone ! I wanted to describe a National Geographic special edition likely out since Western Easter, and on the store racks until July 2024.

Maybe one could consult the missionaries there, to keep an ear out for conditions and updates about prospects for starting a TOC mission in South Africa.
Whereabouts are you, eish ? A big city or rural ?

Sava, great summation ! [ You mean Nektarios Lopez, right ? He is too quiet, he should speak up more here ! ] There may never have been a real Matrona of Moscow as a holy figure, it seems like -?

Re: Matrona of Moscow: Distraction from the REAL Saints
Good for you, eish ! Thanks for confirming that's what was actually written. The term did sound strangely modern. I hate to think but maybe in a few years, the MP will advertise Matronushka's feats : "This dazzling wonderworker will match you up with your significant other " < even worse ...

I'm bringing this thread bac up, as we arrived at one of the fake - holy days for Matrona, now 5 years after this thread stopped [ due to the Euphrosynos Cafe site not operating.
