Hi I Am Alex

[alicemary]

Alex, don't look to me for those answers!!! I have no idea how this happens either!!! You type in some words and people across the world read it. Still amazes me.
As to who we are....well, we are a group of people who care about each other. We are in many places around the world, have never met each other, never will. We share a love of God, and seek to find Him in our lives. Because of this, we write to each other for support and to find people who think like us. We also love to talk about things, and we don't always agree, but that is ok.
Rod has posted all about you to us, and we celebrated when you arrived. We love to share in your life, as we would like you to share in ours.
Yep, this is a mystery!!

[i]Below are the troparion and kontakion for the feast of St. Moses[/i]:


[b][size=4]Venerable Moses the Black of Scete[/size][/b]

[i]Troparion - Tone 1[/i]

You abandoned the Egypt of the passions, O Father,
Ascending the mount of the virtues with fervent faith,
Taking the Cross of Christ upon your shoulders;
And being glorified in godly works,
You proved to be a model for monastics, O summit of the fathers.
Pray unceasingly with them that our souls may find mercy!

[i]Kontakion - Tone 3[/i]

Your mind was filled with a holy inspiration from God,
Turning you from the lust and pleasures of the flesh,
Bringing you to the height of the city of God!
O Holy Father Moses, intercede with Christ God that He may grant us great mercy!

Hey Autumn! Perhaps you should check your own grammar before cracking on Americans:

"Most Americans don't write as [size=6][b]WELL[/b] [/size]as you do [size=6][b]BECAUSE[/b][/size] they are lazy."

I AM american. And my teachers were too lazy to teach me correctly/meet my educational needs. This tread is no place to pick on my grammer especially when I was telling someone else that they wrote well or good or whatever. You all on phatmass need to lay off. I can't go into ANY thread lately without being criticized.
