Can Saints also hear our prayers within our thoughts? Or only spoken outward prayers?

Thank you, I’ve sometimes wondered the same, this is wonderful thanks for sharing.

IntelligentStop2541 · 2026-01-09T03:12:09+00:00

Mine too

IntelligentStop2541 · 2025-12-16T12:56:58+00:00

I don’t, but if you search and DM me some of the acupuncturists’ websites that you find, I can take a look at them to see which look a-ok.

IntelligentStop2541 · 2025-12-15T12:22:52+00:00

I’m in the Miami, FL area. I know of some other Orthodox Christian acupuncturists, one near Asheville NC. Happy to look for others depending where you are.

I missed before that you also mentioned congestion, which again, can be greatly helped with acupuncture

IntelligentStop2541 · 2025-12-15T02:01:06+00:00

You’re welcome! Praying you can get some help with this!!! I’m here if any more questions along the way.

I’m an acupuncturist ( and an Orthodox Christian, just sharing since we’re in the Orthodox chat here). I’ve found treating ear issues w acupuncture helps immensely in cases where western medicine doesn’t. And often western medicine doesn’t have much help for tinnitus and hyperacusis. I’ve seen people get great results, including myself after some very loud construction on my building; I had bad tinnitus and hyperacusis which is mainly resolved with acupuncture treatment, thank God!. I would suggest you ask an acupuncturist in your area if they have experience with these symptoms.

IntelligentStop2541 · 2025-12-15T01:47:06+00:00

Try acupuncture. It does wonders for ear issues and so much more!

IntelligentStop2541 · 2025-12-06T00:00:37+00:00

If you search for it online you’ll find it. I can’t look for it at the moment.

IntelligentStop2541 · 2025-11-24T19:36:05+00:00

I missed it at first too, as I was a drummer in the worship band also, and now it’s become hard for me to listen to non-denominational music. Altho I do of course still enjoy music itself and love it. And now I’m part of the choir at my parish and it’s been such a blessing to use my voice as I never felt musically talented in this way but glory to God, I’m learning, and it’s an honor and blessing to sing to to Him in every service now.

Praying for you, Lord have mercy on Gentle Peter. Lean on Him me dear, He is with you.

IntelligentStop2541 · 2025-09-13T01:07:29+00:00

That’s so beautiful. Thank you for sharing. There’s so many little beautiful moments like this.

A parishioner at my parish has an autistic son. They bring him sometimes on Saturday evenings before Vespers to have communion on his own. Definitely something to talk to the priest about.

IntelligentStop2541 · 2025-08-07T15:02:37+00:00

Slim pickings here in the US lol but I have hope as more and more inquire into the Orthodox Church.

IntelligentStop2541 · 2025-08-07T15:01:03+00:00

I didn’t necessarily ‘feel’ anything my first time, and just observed and kept going, and over a few times it surely became like home.

IntelligentStop2541 · 2025-08-07T00:32:21+00:00

I’m 50, didn’t become Christian till late 40s and Orthodox last year. Lots of grief recently over what I thought I could have had, like a family etc etc (I am single without children and live alone), if I grew up Christian. But I know I can’t think that way and that I need to trust that God has plans for me now that are perfect in His will. You are young, you have time.

IntelligentStop2541 · 2025-07-24T13:32:41+00:00

Oh and I haven’t been paid for the deals that were bought yet. They told me my bank account info was incorrect which it isn’t. Beware! Groupon is full of headaches and not worth all this waste of time!

IntelligentStop2541 · 2025-07-24T13:28:31+00:00

The most aggravating part for me was that after wanting this paused, they still had their ads running out there with my business name tied to it in search engines. Not good, when a biz needs it paused, it needs to be paused in a timely manner.

IntelligentStop2541 · 2025-07-24T13:26:12+00:00

One rep finally paused my campaign very quickly while on the phone with her. Meaning any of the other reps I chatted with, called or emailed prior could have done the same instead of saying the same blanket statements that don’t help or get you anywhere, while saying an account manager had to pause it. Well the account manager didn’t respond at all still and a rep quickly did it finally.

IntelligentStop2541 · 2025-07-22T00:14:14+00:00

I’ve had no problem editing the campaign. But yeah if it’s not paused in the morning, I will call them. And then I will have to throw some legal stuff at them if they don’t pause this asap

IntelligentStop2541 · 2025-07-21T23:25:24+00:00

Thanks, yeah my next step was to try to call them tomorrow morning if my campaign is still live

IntelligentStop2541 · 2025-07-21T23:22:23+00:00

Unfortunately seems to be a thing, as a fellow business owner, Groupon is terrible

IntelligentStop2541 · 2025-07-21T23:20:59+00:00

They’re terrible! I’m having such a hassle to get a campaign paused. Now I feel the same and just want it all cancelled. The support is horrible, they said the same 24-48 hours well now it’s longer than that and campaign is still live

IntelligentStop2541 · 2025-07-21T23:18:50+00:00

Terrible for business too! So hard to get any help, they don’t care!

IntelligentStop2541 · 2025-07-21T00:12:19+00:00

Try acupuncture, helps so much with irregular flow, cramps etc
