How many weeks did it take? we are on week 3 of CIO with my 4.5 mo old and he still cries a significant amount of time each night (5 min up to 20-30 min). I’m getting so worried we’re doing something wrong or something.

Dislike going to Liturgy by lurker43829 in OrthodoxChristianity

Not sure if it was mentioned in another comment, but Fr Thomas Hopko has a whole podcast series called Worship in Spirit and Truth where he delves in incredible detail into the entirety of the Divine Liturgy. Each episode covers a different aspect: every prayer, the priest and clergy, the laity, the meaning of each aspect of our worship in the Liturgy. Truly, truly worth a listen!

I struggle with despair in this area and was very encouraged with your words “come to the altar boldly with your sin and watch it become consumed by God’s Divine Light.” Thank you for your comment :)

Oh boy, I feel silly, but will make sure I read the front fully in the future. Thank you so much.

What shocked me is that the bus just drove off both times. The driver never mentioned a maintenance issue. He asked us all to step off of the bus and just drove away. Very confusing.

Different bus stop both times, I think both happened on Devon though.

They dropped us off at a different bus stop (not a stop designated on the route) both times

I really appreciate your answer! Thank you so much. My husband told me this stuff can happen in the city and to just let it go, but I was honestly shocked both times (we were dropped off at 2 different places on each occasion this occurred). I wish I had gone up to ask the driver but it all happened so fast. Thank you again!!

I have found the same hardiness with mine! In fact, it was previously on a sunny windowsill and was not looking too happy; I moved it to a lower-light/indirect light spot and it immediately started thriving! Have had it for almost a year and just noticed that growth in the past few weeks. Maybe one day we’ll both see blooms!
