Fr Bohdan making announcements
After all these years, it seems a little surreal that I am finally becoming Orthodox. But it has moved from the realm of wishing to becoming a reality. I even made the announcements in the bulletin. Fr. Gary is away until next week so Fr. Bohdan Chaikivskyi (whose name I admit I cannot pronounce.) celebrated the Divine Liturgy and after the liturgy, Fr. Bohdan made the announcements. Here is a video of him mentioning how I and someone else will be received as catechumens next week:
And here is how it looked in the Bulletin:
THIS SUNDAY, February 8 – Prior to the Divine Liturgy, James Vivanco and Halle James will be received into the catechumenate. May God continue to guide their journeys into the Orthodox Faith!
So, Next Sunday it is, then! I will be going to Vespers Saturday night so that I can speak with Fr. Gary to find out the specifics of what I am to do, ect. Since I have never been received as a Catechumen before, I don't know what to do. 😁 I am happy that my wife will be witnessing the event. She will stop by before she goes to Mass.

| Sadly I was the only one there |
Last night I saw the movie, "Moses the Black." I thought it very good, even though I admit I had a hard time following it. (I guess I couldn't understand the ghetto slang) It was a very realistic movie in terms of language and gritty talk. I am not used to "F" Bombs being in Christian movies but there it is. (Since I work around such language all day long, I did not find it particularly offensive and appreciated the realism.) I want to see it again so I will have to download it when it becomes available.
See you guys next week!
