We cannot legislate morality by passing laws controlling firearms. The only evil we can combat lies within our hearts. We need stronger laws to protect the moral foundation of society against the evil of gay marriage. |

Congratulations! That is wonderful news indeed! How long had you been inquiring before you became a catechumen?
Reading, roughly a year Regularly attending services about 10 months. Our bishop is allowing some exceptions to the generally held 6 month rule though since there's a decent amount of catechumens at my parish who are in college and when home have no Orthodox Church to go to or no transportation when home. |
