On the Sunday after the Feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross, at the Romanian Orthodox Parish of Holy Hierarch Cuthbert and Venerable Bede in Durham, a profound joy filled the community as a family of four – two parents together with their children – were received into the Orthodox Church through the Mystery of Holy Baptism.

I was not looking for signs of the existence of Jesus Christ; I desperately wanted Him to help me. Prayer was my last resort, and it was justified—the Lord rescued me.

Athanaseos Hồ Tuân
I remember clearly: during the time I first encountered Orthodoxy, my heart — writhing and in pain — was being healed.

Not much time had passed since that incident, when I found myself back at the Kazan railway station. I found the place where he had touched my shoulder. As for the underpass, it wasn’t there!
Imagine what the opening prayer of this service means to someone sentenced to spend the rest of their lives amidst a constant threat of violence.
