Another traditional #plunge today for the #Orthodox #Epiphany (Holy #Theophany of Christ) to commemorate Jesus' baptism in the Jordan River, symbolizing spiritual purification, forgiveness of sins, and a fresh start for the new year. We got "feels like" 23F/-5C. No Siberia...

My parish did our usual blessing of the nearby headwaters of the Missouri River today, the Sunday after Theophany. I somehow captured this photo of Fr.

David’s attempt to tie a cross to a string failed spectacularly several years ago. 🙂 #Christianity #Orthodox #Theophany

As promised, here are some photos from today’s blessing of the waters. Temps were around 8°C/45°F, but the winds were strong. This is the first time in a long time that I’ve felt chilly while fully vested.

I’m the one in the Ray-Bans in the second photo.

Control and Addiction vs. Healthy Relationships - Daily Meditations with Matthew Fox

 In his revisiting the seven deadly sins of the Catholic tradition, after speaking of sloth or acedia as the root-vice, Matthew Fox examines “lust” and connects it, quite obviously, to the second chakra, which is where sexual energy concentrates. Matthew finds a good side to lust as well as a bad side, which is best […]

A bright blue convertible screeches to a halt, driven by Fawn Hall with Jessica Hahn and Donna Rice riding. "GET IN, LOSER, WE'RE GOING TO A THEOPHANY!", they shriek. So I get in, as one must.

Happy The Bell Ringer Was Going Absolutely Off At The Greek Orthodox Church I Passed On My Ride To Work Day, for those who observe it.

Only 3 people in the choir tonight (SAA) but it was so much fun! Not that I want it like this all the time but somehow everything was easy (and joyful, but it's a feast so that was expected). #ChurchChoir #Theophany
