"As we approach the Day of Pentecost, may the Awesome and Life Giving Holy Spirit pour out a double portion of his blessings on Father Gregory"
. . . and some small portion on the rest of us, too.
In Christ,
BOB

My prayers are joined with all of you for the speedy return of our Father Gregory. I've saved many of his postings. He is truly a special gift to us all.

I believe - that Fr. Gregory has a new parish. He is no longer with St. Barbara's in Orange - the girl there said he now has his own parish but she did not know where.
This may account for his absence. The vineyard calls.

(Noticed that Father Gregory's name is listed on the main forum page as being a recent visitor.)
Hopefully the Lord will inspire him to give us a message soon.
If you're reading this Father, our poor prayers continue for you as we hopefully await your return.

Perhaps Father Gregory has been instructed not to post for a time by his spiritual father? It is a good thing that he is well enough to be visiting us a ByzCath, but if he has not posted it may be due to this.
Gaudior, theorizing

I also mourn the absence of Father Gregory and his prayerful words and thoughts.
My prayers for you, Abouna, for your physical and spiritual health and well-being, that God may grant you many years yet in His service, and that the time will soon come when you can return and post with your family here.

Father Gregory,
Your pastoral presence is CERTAINLY missed here by us all. (I personally miss your Marian reflections the most!) May the Holy Theotokos watch over you wherever you are.
If I have offended in any way by omission or comission, I humbly pray for your forgiveness.
Praying for your blessing,
Gordo

Amen Rose2
He is missed very much.
I can tell my prayer life improved because of his teaching and encouraging us.
Thank you Fr. Gregory!
Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the Living God, pour your mercy and grace down on Abouna Gregory. Continue to heal his body and renew his stength, restoring to him the years that the locust have eaten. For you are the Rock Lord, you alone Almighty Father are the Lover of mankind, let Fr. Gregory realize your love through the power of your Holy Spirit and the intercession of the Most Holy Theotokos, St Joseph, and all the saints. Amen

Dear praying friends of Fr. Gregory,
Glory to God!
I started this thread on 5/10/05 and still we are praying for someone who is so well remembered. ..May goodness and mercy continue to follow him wherever he is and in whatever he is doing.
Trusting the Holy Spirit to guide and guard Fr. Gregory. The Lord's banner over him is love.
