Orthodox Converts Find Meaning in Local Mission and Rich Tradition
Converts describe joining Orthodoxy, noting equal authority among bishops, councils for decisions, native language services, and icon use. They contrast with Latin liturgy and statues in Western Catholicism, recount travel to San Angelo and Abilene for services, and emphasize communal worship, traditional prayer, and a store-front mission in progress.
