Please say a prayer for my wife Virginia who will be Baptised and Chrismated today (Rocor).

She will take  the name Elizabeth after the Grand Duchess.

The Baptism was very moving.. The Priest teared up a bit .

Elizabeth took her first communion today.. She has not stopped smiling since the Baptism.

Several non-Orthodox friends of her's attended. One older woman who has been a lapsed Catholic was very animated in her approval. She said that we do things right, no rushing through things !!

Ain't that the Truth.

Thank you for your prayers.
