Not to hijack another thread......today I was baptized and chrismated a member of the Orthodox Church!
Pictures are available on Facebook until we get our photo gallery up.
I also wanted to offer encouragement to all of the inquirers and catechumens out there!
The road may take a long time to travel, but coming home is worth it!
Slava Isusu Khrystu!
In Christ
