Journeys

Orthodox Christianity was also a secret to many of us in the Wenatchee Valley. But by the grace of God we were led to its doors and welcomed by the local Orthodox community of Three Hierarchs. Here are our stories...

"Church," for me, was never the same again...

"My sermons changed from focusing on externals and the immorality of “others,” to focusing on the inner self, spiritual transformation and humility. I was no longer energized by judging others by outward appearance, but seeing my own sins."

The Church is a Spiritual Hospital...

"I had come to believe once more, as I had as a small child, that God is love. And I had friends in heaven....The lives of the Saints show us, not how to avoid suffering, but how to continue loving God and neighbor as we suffer. I understand now that the church is a hospital...."

Finally off the roller coaster...

"This was my basic routine – a roller coaster spiritual search, which had some highs and many lows, that basically led me to give up searching…until I discovered the Orthodox Church."
