Indeed, this mission parish has a long history in serving the poor of the city!

I'm not sure if you already mentioned this (I didn't catch it) but there is also St. Silouan's parish which is under the Carpatho-Russian Diocese. Check it out if you haven't already! https://www.stsilouan.ca/

Hello, it has been years since I posted on here but it's good to be back. Can anyone tell me what has become of the Brotherhood of St. George in Denver CO? It is/was headed by Fr. Christodoulos Papadeas and I cannot find any contact information except for the address itself. Any information...

Good point! Why is it considered a scandal amongst the byzantines?

dzheremi, it isn't only parishes (sadly) which use them...I went to a US (Coptic) monastery for a visit last summer and they also used the screen extensively...clearly your situation is different from mine so I cannot really comment because I've never been in your shoes. I'm not trying to start...

Mina habibi, most churches these days have books with 2 or 3 languages printed side by side...tons and tons of books! There's no reason not to simply notify people of changes such as differing anaphoras or fraction prayers etc. Theres also lots of books for communion hymns that are often placed...

Actually I was talking about Coptic Orthodox parishes. Based on what biro said: "There is such a thing as what is tasteful and appropriate. I'm not sure that I want church to be the same atmosphere as a baseball game. An air conditioner creates no such problem. A giganto screen and subtitles...

Hi, I recently went to a few Orthodox churches and I noticed that they had projector or tv screens positioned immediately above the iconostasis or to the side of the iconostasis during the divine liturgy. It had the text of the liturgy displayed so that the laity could follow along with the...

Does anyone recommend or know of anywhere I could get inexpensive/ moderately priced liturgical items (censers,procession cross,gospel cover)? I found easternchristiansupply which had reasonably priced censers ($100 range) and then I visited other sites which would have the exact same censer for...

Hi everyone, its been a while since I've been on here, but can anyone tell me where I can find audio sources of greek/english wedding hymns chanted? I'm chanting at my friends wedding tomorrow and I'm realizing that his priest would want me to do more chanting than the priest I usually chant for...

Thanks guys, I found the service in the Liturgikon from Narthex Press. I am typing it right now and it is a lot to type, especially in Greek! It has to be inserted into the Festal Vespers of Prophet Elias. I can't believe this service is not online anywhere. Oh well...If I had my own website for...

Does anyone know where I can find this service (greek usage) online anywhere in greek and english? Thanks to anyone who can help out with this, Timos

Forget entering into communion at this point. At least show them some basic love and respect!

Umm, the Metropolitan wasn't simply 'rebuking error'. He was attacking the pope...the fact that he was even attacking the pope's visit is unChristian. He is also showing no respect to the Catholics (Maronite and Latin) on the island by his statements. As for me not being really Orthodox...I...

Thank you Fr. George! That really helped me a lot! PetertheAleut, it is for a Greek church...but the priest told me to skip the liti.
