Dear Friends,

Thank you for your prayer and concern for me in this time of insecurity for me.

I'm actually beginning a new career starting tomorrow . . . it will involve writing, lots of writing.

I don't mind the hours as it is what I like doing anyway!

This last little while has been a wonderful time for me to reflect on things - and it has been an eye-opener.

Time to move ahead - and I couldn't be happier.

Thank you all, once again.

God bless!

Your humbled servant,

Alex

Dear Alex,

I hope all goes well - we will miss you if you escape from us all totally.

Dear Anhelyna,

Thank you!

Was it St Luke? I'm all excited because I feel a fire within me like I haven't before!

I've taken on three writing projects - and I'm so energized I don't know what to do with myself!

God bless!

Alex

Actually I was wondering about your job hunt last night and thought perhaps it was too early - now I see it wasn't too early after all...

How wonderful that you are all inspired about this. I am happy for you.

Best wishes in your new position! Prayers for a productive new work life ...

In Christ through Mary Immaculate,
Communion of Saints

Dear Alex,

Prayerful wishes for your happiness and fulfillment in your new work. May the Lord prosper the work of your hands.

Will you be able to share what you are about with the members of your cyber parish?

I pray that you will be able to devote some time to continuing to foster our understanding of the East that you know so well.

Be assured of my prayers for you and yours as you move into your new career.

Write for us often.

Steve

Dear Alex,

CONGRATULATIONS on your new job!

Patrons of writers include:

St. Francis de Sales
St. John the Apostle
St. Lucy
St. Paul the Apostle

Pretty good. smile One is a Doctor of the Church, One an Apostle/Theologian, one a martyr, and one an Apostle to the Gentiles.

You're in very good hands.

Best wishes,

Paul

Dear Brian,

Speaking of great achievements, when do you enter Orthodoxy (not in communion with Rome)?

Prayers for you as well!

Bless me a sinner, Fr. Elias,

Through the prayers of the Mother of God of Mt Carmel, and of the Holy Prophets Elias and Eliseus, Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy and save us!

Not that I consider "in Communion with Rome" the be all and end all smile )))))))))) nor the supposed "Crown of Orthodoxy" wink But I won't pursue that smile

God Willing, I hope to be received on Great and Holy Saturday.

Peace and again, thank to Our Lord for your new job,
Brian

Dear Brian,

Yes, you have to take the Administrator with a grain of salt sometimes smile smile

I don't think they would like him on Mt Athos . . .

It certainly will be a "Great" Saturday for you won't it?

God bless you on your journey!

Alex
