My family is new to the Byzantine Church (though technically still Roman)and I was not sure what the basket or cover was to look like. I was so surprised to see this picture with Father Terry and John! St. John Chrysostom is my parish! :-) <br /><br />Seeing how the blessing is done has given me a better understanding of what I need to do this week! <br /><br />Thanks again! <br />Lucy CookGoByzantinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06850963079868602326noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11691912.post-71086626570367279802011-11-10T10:09:00.356-05:002011-11-10T10:09:00.356-05:00I got to your blog from the Dreaming of Heroes blo...I got to your blog from the Dreaming of Heroes blog ... your writing is really good.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11691912.post-22293566887705479532011-01-07T19:22:44.203-05:002011-01-07T19:22:44.203-05:00Good Christmas this year.

My neighbors gave me some pumpkin bread over the holidays and I just now got around to eating it, and it tastes like Christmas ... in January! I also think bad Christmases are just as worthwhile, and that everyone needs to have a handful of them to appreciate the good ones. In the long run, sometimes bad Christmases may even make the best memories.Jeremyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07928784448776483987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11691912.post-28425164211879658992010-08-15T00:15:26.251-05:002010-08-15T00:15:26.251-05:00Good one...Good one...Jeremyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07928784448776483987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11691912.post-11366390418330164882010-07-06T20:55:39.971-05:002010-07-06T20:55:39.971-05:00Really nice, Monica!
