Hi

Hi,

I'm a new Oriental Orthodox chrismated in an Armenian church.  Since our churches are in communion, I figured this might be a good place to come and learn a bit, and also check stuff I hear in discussions.  I am a life-long Christian and a new Orthodox.

Welcome to the Orthodox Church, I would try to make friends in your church and talk to the Priest to show you around. It would be much better then explaining on a website.

God Bless.

Thank you.

I am working on making friends, but it is slow, and I find I learn things both ways, so why not browse around a little online when I have free time? I'm pretty new, have had to miss a few Sundays, and know there is much to learn.

It's good to see you here. Of course you can. I used the same name because I thought there might be a little crossover. It's great to see some familiar people here. :)  You could even call me Ana if you like and there is no other Ana to be confused with here.

That's cool about your name. I wish I knew more Arabic. :)
