Orthodoxy or Bust!: July 2015
http://orthodoxyorbust.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
This is a disjointed account of my journey to orthodoxy. Tuesday, July 28, 2015. Visit #180 First a funeral, then Vespers! At the memorial service of Seymour Levin. May his memory be eternal! But Vespers holds a special place in my heart. I lit two candles as Fr. Deacon Alexander led in prayers. One for my family and one for the newly-reposed Seymour Levin. Fr. Gary spoke about St. Jacob of Alaska and the importance of missions. You can read more about him here. St Jacob, pray for us! Links to this post.

Orthodoxy or Bust!: August 2015
http://orthodoxyorbust.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
This is a disjointed account of my journey to orthodoxy. Tuesday, August 25, 2015. Visit 182 Vespers with a Bishop! His Eminence, Arch-Bishop Michael. So, talking with Bishops is good! That's what I got to do Saturday night. I have first seen Arch-Bishop Michael "up close and personal" last year at a campfire on Church grounds, complete with 'smores! At that time, I did not actually talk to Bishop Michael but this time I did! After Vespers, there was to be a small reception in the Church hall. As we ...

Orthodoxy or Bust!: January 2015
http://orthodoxyorbust.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
This is a disjointed account of my journey to orthodoxy. Tuesday, January 20, 2015. Visit #159 Will Someone Please Open the Door! LISTEN TO THIS FIRST! Fr Gary was on vacation so we had a Reader's Service. Was great, very similar to Great Vespers. Except with parts omitted that are exclusively said by Fr. Gary. The choir, though small, sounded powerful! I am very glad I went to service Saturday night and I look forward to next week! Tuesday, January 20, 2015. Links to this post. Tuesday, January 6, 2015.

Orthodoxy or Bust!: Visit 181 ~ Question: Why do kids line up first to receive the Mysteries?
http://orthodoxyorbust.blogspot.com/2015/08/visit-181-question-why-do-kids-line-up.html
This is a disjointed account of my journey to orthodoxy. Monday, August 10, 2015. Visit 181 Question: Why do kids line up first to receive the Mysteries? I haven't been in Divine Liturgy since June 30th, mostly because I've had trouble getting someone to take my shift at work. Well, I was happy to be at Church yesterday. I wasn't able to stay for coffee hour because I was wanted to meet my wife and we had lots to do with the dog (It's dog grooming day! During Communion, of course, I do not go because I a...

Orthodoxy or Bust!: December 2014
http://orthodoxyorbust.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
This is a disjointed account of my journey to orthodoxy. Tuesday, December 16, 2014. Visit 156 Sorry, I don't know what to write! Service was a blessing, as always. There was no sermon/homily because, the first Saturday of the month, Fr. Gary leads us in a general confession right after Vespers so, to save time, I suppose, he cuts out the homily. So I have no comment to make on the service. I will say, as I did when I started this post, that I remember it to be a blessing. I hope to do better next time.

http://orthodoxyorbust.blogspot.com/2015/05/visit-176-lighting-candles-for-newly.html
This is a disjointed account of my journey to orthodoxy. Monday, May 25, 2015. Visit #176 Lighting Candles for the Newly Baptized and Illumined. A candle and a prayer for Payton Faith. I went to the Divine Liturgy yesterday and, of course, it was good to be there. But a part of me wishes I was at a different parish that day where Payton Faith Campbell. So, God bless Payton Faith Campbell! Monday, May 25, 2015. May 25, 2015 at 9:44 AM. Many Years to the newly illumined! Ive spit on the Devil as a Godparent.
