  • [quote author=ophadece link=topic=12897.msg151961#msg151961 date=1329328561] OK. This is where I believe our church should have a dual role; not only missionary, but also serving the "original" community. Oujai qen `P[C [/quote] Why is the original…

  • [quote author=Father Peter link=topic=12849.msg151434#msg151434 date=1328277546] I like the slow pace of the recording from St Anthony's. I don't like it when things are rushed. I think that it is part of the ancient Western Orthodox monastic cultur…
