Hello folks,
I have finally found my way to this forum.
Just wanted to introduce myself.
I am a baby deacon having been ordained on the 13th of September 2009. I serve the same UOCofUSA parish Heirodeacon Vasyl' (1 of the members of this community) serves in Boston MA.
I was born in Ukraine and immigrated to the USA in 1988 when I was 13 years old.
I work at a law firm as an investigator and run a little Orthodox Vestment shop on ebay part time.

Excellence of character, then, is a state concerned with choice, lying in a mean relative to us, this being determined by reason and in the way in which the man of practical wisdom would determine it. Now it is a mean between two vices, that which depends on excess and that which depends on defect.

If I could figure out a way to send vodka over the internet, I would have certainly offered some...but I'd probably never leave my computer either, so it's probably a good thing I can't  |

Welcome Deacon! Like Father Amborse, I also now have two forums in common with you. Hope studies at St. Sophia's are going well.
In Christ,
