O Holy Saint Grand Duchess Elizabeth, pray for us!


« on: April 01, 2011, 03:21:16 AM »

My mother is away for the week, and my dad said we can try out a new church on Sunday if I'd like to. There is a Serbian Orthodox Church in the next town, and I am going to ask him if we can go. Please pray that God, the Theotokos and the saints will intercede in my father's decision. Thank you.

Question a friend, perhaps he did not do it; but if he did anything so that he may do it no more.
A hasty quarrel kindles fire,
and urgent strife sheds blood.
If you blow on a spark, it will glow;
if you spit on it, it will be put out;
                           and both come out of your mouth

Please keep us updated if you can. I remember your story and I hope that you will be able to attend an Orthodox church soon enough.

He said no. But that is ok, because I have the patience to wait.
