Thanks to everyone for their prayers, especially to Phil, Anastasios and everyone responsible for this website, as it played a very important role in bringing me to the Orthodox Church. My Chrismation (and first Holy Communion) today was something beyond special; it's filled me with everything i ever longed for and more. I took the name John Damascene, in whose footsteps I hope to follow especially in the composition of music, defence of icons and holy Orthodoxy in general.

God bless all!
