Re: Lack of churches

Christ Is Risen ! Isn't Bishop Ambrose active in parishes in Central Africa somewhere ? Maybe one could consult the missionaries there, to keep an ear out for conditions and updates about prospects for starting a TOC mission in South Africa. Whereabouts are you, eish ? A big city or rural ?    Ther...

Re: NatlGeo:"Jesus" special issue

This is a well-known and even well-documented phenomenon. Every year, like clockwork, soyens channels bring out blasphemous shows at Easter and Christmas (Gregorian, because that's the audience and because they themselves are in the West). If you can imagine it, they have aired it. Something like ho...

Lack of churches

Christ is risen!

Re: Matrona of Moscow: Distraction from the REAL Saints

From the above website, Matrona helped with "family matters, when looking for a life partner, looking for and finding a job",   I just ran that through a machine translation and got the same. Please someone tell me it's a mistranslation. Please, please tell me the MP isn't advocating that...

Re: Online Sermons

RTOC has a YT channel, Orthodox Chestnuts, with an excellent catechism playlist. They read through catechisms one after another, with clergy discussing the content and answering questions at the end of a session. I haven't watched the rest yet but it is mostly lives of saints, and the saints' catech...
