Christos Anesti, Marian, Inawe, Unity in Christ... you who are reading this will no doubt think of many others whom you have seen disappear fairly recently or whose names you haven't seen in a while.
May Our Lord send them life-giving blessings,
CS

Actually since I don't really read the forum on other sections, these posters could be 'here' and I might not even know.
Prayers anyhow.

Hello, again, Christine!

I also remember Paul (paromer). I pray that he and his family have jumped over the hurdles occasioned by their growing children!

And Mary Jo, who is enjoying her retirement with her husband in the serenity of the Northwest by putting to rest their annual trek to Arizona for the baseball spring training!

I especially miss Michael B. (a one time Moderator and very, very kind and loving soul)...I pray that he is well, and that his family is too.

I recall a small, simple voice, Brian, and Latin Trad, Intrigued Latin, Fr. Thomas, PTSmythe and Francisco. They are all missed greatly.

May God bless them all.

Alice

My prayers for all those who were so much a part of this community but whom we haven't seen in a long time. I especially remember my dear friend and sister LaFamilia Felix; Paul/paromer, whom Amadeus mentioned; Andrew L Rubis, long our Albanian Orthodox expert in residence; AntonI, my Bulgarian Orthodox brother from the UK; Filipe YTOL, my young friend from Portugal; Roger/Berean, our Protestant pastor friend from Ireland; Subdeacon Ghazar, my beloved Armenian Orthodox brother; and UnityInChrist, whom my sister, Communion of Saints mentioned, as well as so many others.

Amado and all, thanks for remembering me in your prayers; but I do check here regularly (lately especially) to post a prayer request and to pray for others. I consider my frequent posting time mainly in other sections here a couple of years back (since 2004) as a season of my life in which I learned much about Eastern Christianity. The example of the fine mod's here..like Alice, Neil, etc...helped lead me to become one on another forum. It takes up much time; but is so rewarding. Alice, you were right about that!

And, Amado, old friend..we don't go SW anymore; but we are still big Mariner's fans..now going to Safeco in Seattle.

My prayers for you all continue.

You are a loving bunch and God bless you for your perseverance.

peace in Christ,

Mary Jo/Ron ... Norwesterners, USA.

Prayers for my dear sister, Mary Jo, and for Ron (one of the many silent spouses whom we have come to know so well over the years). I hadn't mentioned her because I knew she still checked in and I had seen her recent request for prayers for Father Tom.

Prayers too for our beloved brother Don and our beloved Father Gregory, whose names my sisters Anhelynha and Alicia posted. Both of them came immediately to my thoughts the other night but I got distracted and posted before realizing I had neglected to include them among the many whom I personally miss.

Neil
