Hey OrthoBro! ☦️ Have you recently had your house blessed ?

I've never had my house blessed actually. I was officially baptized within the past year, along with my (now) wife, but we are still somewhat newbies. Spent maybe 3-4 years researching and following Orthodoxy though.

Hey, us too ! This will be our first year. We’re going to be later than most, for scheduling reasons. But it will happen.

We’re converts, too; only my youngest daughter is a Cradle Orthodox.

Congratulations, though! Japan would have made a phenomenal Orthodox Kingdom. Who knows, maybe it will, God Willing!!

Thank you and congrats to you too! Never thought I'd see the day honestly. I got baptized, married, and wife is pregnant all in the same year 😂 and while the world is going nuts, no less.

I think there was sort of an Orthodox kingdom in Asia. Look into mandate of heaven, Zhou dynasty, Confucianism. I believe that this was God reaching out to them, though they had no way of knowing what Christianity was at the time. I consider this the Asian version of the Eastern Roman Empire
