Hello Everyone,
From what I've seen online, the Naval Academy doesn't have an Orthodox chapel on its grounds. I'm going there for a 5-day Summer Program this Saturday, so I'll be able to see for myself. However, though I would like to go there for college, I'm not sure what I'm supposed to do if I can't attend liturgy for 4-5 months at a time (until I come home for vacation). They have Catholic Mass, which I suppose I could go to for prayer, but certainly not for communion. It seems that there is an Orthodox Church about 20 miles away, but frankly, there's no time for that sort of commute in a Federal Academy.
I know I should probably contact my bishop, but I don't even know what he'd do. I'll probably e-mail him, but I'd still like some suggestions from the community.
In Christ,
Will
