Re: Elder Isidore - Salt of the Earth

Thank you, Joasia, for the suggestion ! I in fact looked at my copy today, sitting facing me as I jumped in the car. Time to pick it up and READ it. Yes, then we can discuss it.

Re: Russian Orthodox demand that Apple change its logo

Re: Bishop Akakije's Words

Very exciting news ! It IS amazing that the American new nun would be able to survive over there in so many difficulties all these 3 years and then resolve to be tonsured.

Re: Elder Isidore - Salt of the Earth

Re: Russian Orthodox demand that Apple change its logo

I only recall these from my very early years when friends of the family owned an orchard and used to drop off a large carton of Red Delicious every year at Christmas. Honestly, though, ...
