Welp, my baptism date has finally been set. I will be received into the Church, via Baptism, on 2 DEC of this year. Of special significance to me, two days later is 4 DEC, the feat of the Entry of the Theotokos into the Temple, which is the day I was made a catechumen last year.

God be merciful to us sinners.  the best way of conveying God's love to people is through your own presence and deeds. No longer posting on this forum. Thanks to all the helpful people who inspired me. God bless. |

Mravaljamier!
It's a most auspicious day, Dec. 2 (N.S.) being, IIRC, the repose date both of Elder Cleopa of Romania and Elder Porphyrios of Greece.
Congratulations!

If you spend long enough on this forum, you'll come away with all sorts of weird, untrue ideas of Orthodox Christianity.
I would suggest most persons in general avoid any question beginning with why.

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
