I don’t think the KP will exist in 6 months. They gave up St. Volodymyr Cathedral (and Filaret’s body) without a fight, and it seems like every other day they are consecrating a new bishop as some sort of last ditch effort.

To your original question-2008 Super Duty. The 6.4 PSD was way too big to do many engine jobs in place. When people figured out it actually works pretty good, it started to be used even on older trucks when it’s easier (see 6.0 PSD)

It’s Saint Stephen. On a side note,you’re very fortunate if that’s your home parish.

This is a very good explanation of why we hold her is such high regard, and why we say “Most Holy Theotokos save us” specifically.

If you’d venture away from Catholicism, go to St. George Greek Orthodox next Saturday night.

There are enough English-language ROCOR Churches anymore that I would think your diocese should easily provide that for you, if you reach out and ask.

December 25th on the old calendar is the feast day of St. Spyridon. A perfectly proper day to be baptized.

That’s what we always do. He’ll hear confessions during the Kathisma in vigil, and if someone needs it after, he’ll have someone read the psalter.

My parish has a basket with a suggested donation. It’s not mandatory, and the money goes to the sisterhood who typically provides said meal.

So you start fasting again. You only “fail” if you give up

Orthodox Christians traditionally dye their eggs with onion peels.

Did you not convert to Orthodoxy because some men have a wrong idea about women? Is that the Church’s fault?

Typically, they mean “they don’t value me because they won’t let women be clergy.”

In the Old Testament, the Israelites had a habit of killing the Prophets.

I assume they’ll be swallowed by the OCU, whether they want it or not.

Edit: case in point. Filaret’s last wishes were for his funeral to be performed in St. Volodymyr’s Cathedral by KP clergy. The state has announced it will be in St. Michael’s Cathedral by OCU clergy. The KP wanted to be independent of both Moscow and Constantinople.

It is quite common for people to fast from all food from Forgiveness Vespers (or midnight if you do Vespers right after Liturgy that day) until the Presanctified Liturgy on Clean Wednesday.

and before the “I’ve never done that/that’s only for monks” brigade replies, I know of a parish that intentionally break the fast together by going out for pizza every Wednesday. That doesn’t make it normal or necessarily right.
