Father Deacon,
I agree with you completely. Do you know of any priests or bishops who would be sympathetic to such a desire? I'm not asking for names, just if you have someone(s) in mind.
As for this dumpling problem, I think we have some room for diversity. In Thailand, there are street carts all over with various types of soups. You guys can set up competing dumpling stands throughout the village and name them and fill them with whatever you desire.

Yes, and yes.
And I completely agree with the dumpling diversity - Chinese and Mongolian dumplings are also very good.

Well then what are waiting for? What do we need to do to move this conversation into a more concrete form?
Let's have a dumpling pot luck and get talking logistics!

A pirohy competition!!?? I love the idea! "My baba's recipe can beat up your baba's recipte!" That's too good. Seriously, the very idea of walking down a street with various types of dumplings is making my mouth water. Lord have Mercy!

Ah, it takes a village...a topic near and dear to my heart: Christian community. I find much inspiration for the village concept in Catherine Doherty's "My Russian Yesterdays". Perhaps that is also a good place to start? http://www.madonnahouse.org/publications/doherty/mry.htmGod bless, Gordo

Let's have a dumpling pot luck and get talking logistics! I agree. Where? I'm in Ohio. Come to think of it . . . Is there a Byantine parish that needs a bakesale at its annual festival? We could bake the stuff, gather there, sell most of it in a bakesale, and give the proceeds to whatever charity we want (or the hosting parish, or both). This would be a way for at least some of us to physically meet each other, which I have thought about off and on. We would also set aside enough money to send Pani Rose a sample since she can't attend it. And because Pani Rose can't attend, we could call it the First Annual Pani Rose Byzantine Village Bake-Sale ! -- John

What about that Tennessee mission Jonn was talking about?
Or that Texas mission Ryan was talking about?
Or the New Orleans mission?
One of them could stand to have the publicity.
I would say we would go wherever these clergy are that Father Deacon Randy knows of.

Just don't tell me we have to dress like we are still in the 1950s. I HATE lime green.  Yuk!

I remember the lime green from women's clothing in the 1950s. Let's see, there was also something called chartreuse that was popular for furniture upholstery. Also, the knee pants which had a name I don't remember, and Mamie bangs from Mamie Eisenhower. The appliance greens I remember are from the 1970s. The tub and other porcelain green from the 1950s was actually a shade of aqua. My great aunt still has it.

I LOVE suits and hats! I wish they had never gone out of style. I have a felt fedora at home but haven't worn it in a few years. I will have to dust it off. I'm one of the few men I know who don't mind wearing ties and suits. As far as a charity to give our fundraising money to, don't forget we can always get Father Keleher a car---but one with lots of leg room for his arthritic legs. Then he'll have someplace to put his Orthodox bumper sticker and "Slave Isusu Christu! Slavite Jeho!" static window clings!
What's your favorite kind of pirohy, Father? How about you, Our Lady's Slave?

Does anyone here remember "Marywear"? My father mentioned it to me a few years back. Evidently it was in Catholic fashion for girls and was mostly blue - and modest. My wife has begun wearing veil scarfs like the one below. Head Scarves [ cgi.ebay.com] [ Linked Image] (Not my wife, BTW, although there is some resemblance!) It is amazing! They look so feminine, which I, as her husband, absolutely love. She enjoys the fact that she does not need to be so attentive to her hair!  She just started wearing them one day, and no our daughter wears them from time to time. She has also found that people seem to treat her more respectfully when she wears the head scarf. God bless, Gordo
