Dear friends of Journey To Orthodoxy,
Christ is Risen!
As many of you know, updating the Journey To Orthodoxy website and keeping up with the correspondence is a time-consuming task. We do our very best to respond to each and every contact quickly, answer questions accurately, and direct inquirers and seekers to local Orthodox clergy and parishes where they can begin (and complete!) their journey into the historic Christian faith. Thank you for your prayers and financial support without which none of this would be possible.
It’s that time of year again, the month of June – my annual vacation time, and I’ll be taking a hiatus this month from regular updating of Journey To Orthodoxy website. There will be articles scheduled for publication, but I won’t be updating or moderating comments during the month of June. I’m sorry about this, but a real break is a real necessity for a small but very busy operation here.
Please remember me in your holy prayers.
And thanks for supporting the work and mission of Journey To Orthodoxy. Keep spreading the word to your friends, acquaintances and family – Christ IS Risen, and has granted us eternal life!
In Christ our Savior,
Fr. John
Enjoy your break – and keep us in your prayers also!
Have a good break. The site has been of great assistance and encouragement to me in my first year in the Orthodox Church having made the step of leaving my birth church of Roman Catholicism, reading the stories of other converts from Roman Catholicism was very reassuring.

I wish you a wonderful month of taking care of you. That is for our benefit as well as we need you here. I have learned so much on so many different levels from you and I am extremely grateful to you for that. Be well and safe but enjoy to the fullest your time away . Carole

I often wonder how well meaning and pious Protestants declare a love for the Bible, yet disregard the founding church fathers who gave them that Bible. If the monks, priests, bishops and clergy were holy and filled with the Holy Spirit enough to discern which writings were Apostolic and God-Breathed, direct inspirations of the Holy Spirit then would not these same men have discernment upon proper worship, church government and sacred doctrine?
God speed and have a great vacation. Thanks for the site, enjoy the postings.
