Thank you very much, Lasha. smile

I figure if I keep putting in my two cents, it may eventually add up to a dollar or so, even though I might still be thought to be senseless. biggrin

Dear Lasha, Christ is Risen!

Thank you and we enjoy having you with us!

In the Risen Christ!

Dear Lasha,

It's a very charitable forum. I was posting on another one before this, and you can't even imagine the hard heartedness of some participants. It was a religious forum, and it seemed that they had an agenda. Whenever someone would start a discussion that was not in tune to what they wanted to present, the attacks would start.

They didn't realize they were defeating their own purpose, because rather than presenting themselves in a positive light, they were doing the opposite.

I don't want to get into details, but I believe love and charity is catching...and the moderators set the tone. The more charitable they present themselves, the more the participants will have. It's catchy!

I think they have about five participants in all... so all take heed! biggrin

I would like to add this: I want to thank all the members of the Forum for their love, prayers, patience, and sharing of community with me. In a very real sense, you are my Byzantine community. That does not exclude my parish, but you are also my community. Thank you, and I thank God for you and this Forum.

John you are so right about the Community aspect biggrin

If it hadn't been for finding Byzcath I would not have learnt so much [ and wanted to learn more ]

If it hadn't been for Byzcath and meeting the member who is now my GodPapa I would never have had the courage to explore more.

If it hadn't been for Byzcath and my GodPapa and a few other members here I would not have come home to the East
