Looking forward to reading the new issue. Always good to see what the Patriarchate is putting out each month.

Σπύρος Μιχαηλίδης

Every month something interesting comes out. I'll see if they have anything for church music this year, that's what I'm most interested in.

Grace Moore

I always flip straight to the articles on parish life first. Have you read anything good in this one yet, James?

Photini Miller

I haven't picked it up yet but the interview with the bishop from Kazakhstan looks promising. Have you started with that one, James?

Γιάννης Νικολαΐδης

Every issue has something good, I agree. This year in the 7th I saw an article about the chant tradition in Russia, but nothing yet about Greek church music. Are you looking for something specific, Spyros, like Byzantine or modern?

The interview with Bishop Seraphim from Kazakhstan is solid — he talks a lot about the small Orthodox communities holding on out there. I started with that one after I saw the cover. Have you read the piece on the new church school program yet?

Margaret Evans

The interview with Bishop Seraphim really stayed with me too, especially the part about those tiny communities keeping the services going with almost nothing. I haven’t gotten to the church school program piece yet. Does it talk about any new materials for the younger kids, or is it mostly for the teens?
