Yes, absolutely I agree.

I read an interesting article today in the Boston Globe. It's an interview with His Grace Bishop Nikon of the Albananian Archdiocese of the OCA. I think he has some good thoughts that are related to this subject. The article is here [boston.com] . His biography, if anyone is interested, is here [oca.org] .

Christ is Born!

Thanks for the article Andrew.

It's nice to see His Grace seeking "more visibility" for the Church in the modern world. This should be a key goal of all our Bishops. As Christians. we need to make a real tangible difference in the world. The world should be getting more Christian at this point... not less.

Our Eastern Churches especially lack visibility for multiple reasons we all know too well.

Prayers for His Grace Bishop Nikon and all the Eastern Christian Bishops that they my make Christ visible to the modern world.

In Christ,

John
