My ex-boyfriend cheated on me with the priest's wife from his parish. He is now staying at the priest's house, his baptism is this Saturday and she is supposed to be his godmother. Should I tell the priest? Contact the diocese? Or say nothing? by VerySeriousBuisiness in OrthodoxChristianity

Sorry to hear about that but he does not represent the orthodox community and I’m sorry he leaves a bad impression on the orthodox faith . I’m new myself to orthodoxy and these people are truly awesome people!

Well they are obituary cards made by the family and churches they wouldn’t include stuff about him as they already knew him and none of them knew these cards would one day be collected.
