  • Marenhoss Epchoice, If the fact you feel unworthy to be a Church servant, NOR a good example for the youth, leads you to repentance and seek God's grace daily. I see no reason WHY you cannot be a Church servant. In fact, you seem ideal. That IS t…

  • [quote author=TITL link=topic=10674.msg131063#msg131063 date=1298048951] You gave the example before about your friend who lived with her boyfriend as a married couple. An Orthodox person would look at that and say "it's sinful", whereas your friend…
