Veneration of the Cross Welcome! The Byzantine Forum is a discussion community focusing on everything Eastern Christian. Here you can share your faith, ask questions, request prayers and offer prayers. It's sort of a cross between a panel of experts and a cyber coffee hour. Believers and non-believers welcome!
