Last year during Holy Week I decided to keep a blog to share with a lot of my Roman Catholic friends what an Eastern Christian goes through and what our services are like. I decided to bring it back, this time for all of Lent. I update it a couple of times a week, depending on my schedule. I don't pretend to be an expert on anything, I just share my Lenten experience there. Check it out: http://blogoftheeast.blogspot.com/-Katie

It is a very nice blog! It is so heartening to see a young woman of faith...Katie has grown up right before our virtual eyes here...from a teen to a young woman, and an attractive one at that! (and now I can stop thinking that you look like your icon avatar...it is so wierd for me to admit, but I inadvertently think that posters look like their icon avatars!! *giggles*)
All the best...
In Christ,
Alice

Katie,
The blog is extremely well written. You should be very proud of how well you've expressed yourself and presented your faith.
Many years,
Neil

I inadvertently think that posters look like their icon avatars!! *giggles*) I do as well, which gets confusing when people choose the same avatar, and amusing when a man chooses the Theotokos!

Katie maybe you can help our little parish. We are growing (some younger families are now attending Liturgy) and we have new youths that need to know what is available to them (our parish is very friendly to home-educating families). We would love to provide opportunities for them to learn about how the Eastern Catholic's are active through out the local communities and the world.
Trying to keep it specifically Eastern Catholic and this is turning out to be harder then we thought. So maybe some younger people will have suggestions for us on sites and where to look.
