I will be Chrismated into Holy Orthodoxy this Sunday (of the Samaritan Woman) and ask people's prayers as the day approaches.
Thank you so much!
Peace,
Brian (soon to be Seraphim)

Dear Seraphim, May the Holy Spirit, Who proceeds from the Father and rests on the Son, bless you, console you and inspire you all the days of your life as you enter into Holy Orthodoxy! Finally, you'll be one of us!  Alex

With prayers and very best wishes as you are Chrismated. May the Lord God, risen from the dead, draw you ever closer to himself, and strengthen you in his service.
Christ is Risen!

Thanks to everyone for their prayers!!!!! I was received into the Orthodox Faith yesterday morning. A lovely day surrounded by family and friends (I didn't think my sister would sit/stand through an Orthodox Liturgy but she did and it was a privilege to introduce her to the people of my parish) Of course, receiving Our Lord in the Holy Mysteries after the time of catechumenate was the Crowning of the day! Thanks again to everyone! Peace, Brian Seraphim

Dear Brian Seraphim,
Well, let me be among the first here to congratulate you on becoming Orthodox!
May St Seraphim of Sarov guide you as your sure spiritual mainstay.
May he inspire you always and may you be truly obedient to his spiritual maxims and counsels!
God bless you and all Orthodox Christians!
Many Years!
Alex

El Messieh Kahm!
Many Years brother Brian!
I hope it was all you hoped it would be. May you enjoy many years as a member of the Holy Orthodox church. I know how you feel, my own Chrismation Palm Sunday is something I will never ever forget. Great to have you among us.
Peace
Michael
