Dear Fathers, Thank you for saving my life on Palm Sunday, April 16, 2000. I'm not sure if you would believe it if I told you. But you can be sure that even though us listening on the Internet can't see you, hearing you can be enough. God Bless you all at Holy Cross!

I'm very impressed with your web site. I think your ministry is beautiful. God bless all you!!

Dear friends at Holy Cross -- I reside in Gainesville, Florida; I stumbled on your site by luck and I am enjoying greatly your Byzantine services. It reminds me my early years in Greece.Thank you for giving the rest of us the opportunity to experience such a beautiful service. Kind regards -- Mariou Coumbi Gottesman

Hello Father Peter

To Whom It May Concern- My father has recently had a stroke and spent three weeks in the hospital. He might recover but it is more than likely that he is in the last stages of Graves disease. It is heartbreaking that my father has not returned to Greece in over fifty years. He was sent from Athens to Chicago just after WWII ended because of the communist take over. As a result of the war my gradfather was bruitally murdered and my grandmother died of grief. This left my father an orphan with out a country and angry at God. I am glad that after all of these years my father will return to the church to make his peace with our Lord and hopefully gain forgiveness. Please pray for my father that he might find love for God once again as we remember our Lord's greatest sacrifice.

I am quite impressed with your thorough website.I am sure you have an excellent community there.

An important "edit" could not be made, to change the error error I made: The third pargraph from the end should say, "There is no replacement to receiving the Sacraments in church." I am sorry I omitted the word "no". Serghi Serghis 4-8-2000

I am grateful that during the aftermath of a small snowstorm in NJ at Sandy Hook, I was able to tune in to services. It is a welcome addition to those in nursing homes and those unable to go out to church on Sunday. I am grateful that I am well, and am one of the founders of Kimisis Tis Theotokou, in Holmdel, NJ. We started meeting in restuarants, then converted a school gymnasium into a church every Sunday. With the grace of God, and His beneficent guidance and spirit, we now have a beautiful Basilican style church; and the efforts of our parishioners and Fr George Dounelis, we are now planning many religious and cultural affairs to take place in our Community Center. I hope the people who were on the webb, and were unable to hear you, give it another try. When I was in Korea, in the late 50's, it took me 2 and 1/2 hours to get to St Nicholas in Seoul, Korea, and the Orthodox parish there that was built by the UN forces. Of course you know of the church, and the articles on the epitaphio that was returned there after more than 50 years of safekeeping, here in the US, that were in the Observer and the Missioary magazine. So the importance of your site to the armed services and those far from home, but of course, there is replacement to receiving the Sacraments, in person in church. But the webb certainly serves as an educational primer. Thanks, to all of you in silicon valley,and the churches, for making the spread of the internet, available to humanity. But for the Grace of god we'd be tuned into something else. Before signing off, I hope that the word is being spread on the GWHS Alumni Assn and the work it is doing, as mentioned 2 weeks ago, March 26th, when I first signed on as a visitor. Happy Easter to all. Serghi Serghis 4-9-2000

Hi,, was trying to get into the live chat but it wouldnt go, even after registering , looking forward to meeting you all here in Belmont soon. Its nice that you have a website to view fellow greeks online, thanks. Mark Nicholeris, Belmont CA 94002

I was thrilled to see that we have a website like this one for the Greek communities. It is very informative. I am an American of Greek descent. I am a member of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary Greek Orthodox Church in Lowell, Massachusetts. Due to a devastating fire that happened last April 1999, which burned down to the ground. We will be rebuilding at a new location in Dracut, Massachusetts. We hope it will be completed by May of 2000, With the help of God we will get there. God Bless All

hi,just browsing and happened to find your website regards to mike stambolis in LA, USA

Hi, I am trying to hear the church service, but as yet can't get it to play. I love and appreciate the work you are doing. God bless, Charylene

This is a wonderful WEB SITE. We enjoy it.

Dear members of Belmont Holy Cross Church in Calif, I went into 'enter', and brought up the file, and everything came out fine, which I immediately printed. And I belong to George Washington HS Alumni Assn. in NYC, we are trying to regroup the former students, in some way so we can help the students and graduates with new prospects for their future, both ecomically and spiritually. I have took the initiative along with Almus Wilson, the Pres. of the Assn, and tried to reach the former students who lived in Washington Heights, NY, to enlist their aide as mentors, and teachers; the older generation has a lot to impart to the new, because of their experiences and knowledge. The area once abounded with Greek Orthodox, but since have moved away to NJ around other parts of the country and the world. I greatly appreciate the opportunity you are giving me to pass this message on. Our e-mail site is for wwwGWHSAlumni.org;or the president,Mr Almus Wilson in Pa at 1-570-643-3189. God Bless all of you again for all of the good works you are giving the people, especially your live broadcasts nad the tape recordings you sell through your book store. Serghi Serghis 3-26-2000-- Happy Greek Independence Day to all.

I have your service in English nad I enjoyed the harmony very much on the tape. God bless you all for furthering the works our our Lord. By the way, I know how to click on 'file', then 'save as', the save in a certain folder, then to rename the new folder, and then to align left, all the words going over the right margin. But in netscape, is there anyway I can receive your messages without it going over the right margin? Thank you and God Bless. 3-26-2000

please check out our website at http://www.angelfire.com/ak4/alaskaorthodoxaid please leave suggestions in the guestbook your servant in Christ - Sava

Beloved in Christ, We will soon be starting a major effort here in Alaska to bring the troubled youth of our communities back into the Church through youth outreach - please leave any suggestions in our guestbook. I believe in an active church not one dormant due to lack of zealousness on the part of the laity - we all have a responsibility to do evangilization - and with the Lords blessing our efforts will bear Fruit. your servant in Christ - Sava

Enjoy your web site very much. Keep up the good work. It would be great for Archdiocese to have one lead parish in each time zone to avoid the delay in viewing times.

Enjoyed the visit to your website. I have placed this site on our "favorites" list to keep up to date. We belong to the Roman Catholic faith, but we must always seek to commune together. Regards.

Please give my regards to Fr. Peter and Fr. Chris. Your web site is outstanding. Keep up the excellent work. I tried to log on to the live presentation this evening but was unable to do so????????????? Have a blessed weekend.

A link to the Archdiocese would be nice.

Great Web Site,Pefection Plus!!! Will return many times. Steve & Cecelia Theoharis

I looked on the web site for a way to request a stewardship form. I can't find a way to request it, or, perhaps I need to request it through a request like this. I'm not sure if it's required to formally register my contribution for the year. I have usually written a check to "Greek Orthodox Church of the Holy Cross", but I normally don't use a "form" or "card" from Holy Cross. Lately, I'm staring to think that all the contributions that I've made over the years have not been formerly registered since I have not used this form. Geoge Kotsovolos

Thank you.

It was a great pleasure to log on to your web-site this morning. My daughter Meg was diagnosed with Lukemia this past week and we have been hospitalbound. I can't explain the joy we felt to be able to listen to the Divine Liturgy live!! We hope that your efforts will be an inspiration to other Orthodox Churches. With sincere love, Andrea and Meg Georgiades

I enjoyed listening to the service this morning. My first baby was born a week ago (a beautiful son) and we were unable to go to church in order to watch the baby. My parents from Milwaukee also are visiting us and we all listened to the litergy. We enjoyed it very much. My parents attend St Constantine and Helen Greek Orthodox church in Milwaukee. My wife and I attend the Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Church in Dallas Texas. Thanks for allowing us to be part of your parish this morning! Jim and Kathy Patterson Feb 2nd, 2000

I am listening to your webcast of matins and liturgy this morning. We are suffering through a snow/ice storm this morning and services at my parish were cancelled. Thank you for this great evangelistic service. It is of benefit for all Orthodox people and I imagine it is also a good service for people considering conversion too. If I am ever in your area, I will be sure to visit.

GOHOLYCROSS.ORG received its 20000th hit this week! Congratulations to those who established the site and those who have worked hard to maintain it. Having such a web presence is a key element in our community's readiness to face the new millennium. Over the next several months, I hope our entire Holy Cross family will consider additional Church needs, particularly the "crying" (literally) need for additional classroom space for our Sunday and Greek Schools, which, in turn, could be used by a Holy Cross Elementary School. I look forward with great anticipation to the future accomplishments of our truly special community.

Hello, I am from a protestant background. I have been studying church history, and studying all the different types of churches we have today. We are all brothers in Christ and we should all be one church. We all need to learn to work together for Christ. God's kingdom should not be divided. Let's all learn to work together for Christ; whether orthodox, lutheran, methodist, baptist, or church of christ. The world is confused by our divisions.

Christ has Risen... Truly he has risen, Despite the rigors of having their children attend two different colleges in the state of Ohio, my parents, Dr. Gus, and Linda Mouhlas, always made it a point to be with their children, John and Angela, during the Easter Holiday. However this year their oldest child, John (me) is studying medicine in Guadalajara, Mexico. I was extremely elated when I found your site on the internet because during my stay in Guadalajara, I have been without the aid of my church, its members, or our beliefs. I come form a small perish in Wheeling, West Virginia, a community in which everyone knows everyone else, a community in which the children grow up respecting their elders, and a community in which our Divine Leader, Father Sperio, preaches with energy and love for his community. Being without my family or community of 250 Greek Orthodox families, has been a hard experience for me; however, I am extremely pleased that innovative people like yourselves have made viewing the Divine Liturgy and other Feast Days possible. With all my love, JC Mouhlas

I am a theology student in Melbourne, Aust. currently working on ecumenism and orthodox involvement. After several failed attempts to attend an orthodox service here I have indeed been blessed by the discovery of this site. As one who has merely 'read' a lot of literature about orthodox doctrine and practices it has been a privilege to listen to the beautiful Divine Liturgy. I will definitely be passing on info regarding this site to my fellow students.

THANK YOU! Many thanks and much appreciation to Terry, Hilton, Fr. Peter, Fr.Chris, Chris Canellos, and the many others responsible for the outreach that your internet broadcast of the Sunday service provides. Being up quite late last night (morning?), and still needing to finish work on some systems here (and admittedly being lazy and sleeping in) I skipped out on church this morning, but remembered your broadcast. While it's not a substitute for going to church, at least it provides an opportunity to participate from a distance, and pray with you all during the service. Thank you steve pallad

From looking through the guestbook (and seeing that old friends like Steve Pallad and even the Chairman of my Firm, George Shaheen, visited in 1997), it appears I'm a bit of a late-comer, but none the less blessed to now be a cyber-parishoner. Thank you for such a wonderful gift and keep up the great work.

As an Ukrainian-Canadian Orthodox Christian studying at an American college, where I travel 110 miles (one way) to attend church, I often browse the vast amounts of information obtained on the net about Orthodoxy. I am particularly interested obtaining contemporary Orthodox Christian music. Recently, a friend told me of the works done from Jimmy Santis of your congregation. I would like to obtain his CD albums "Signs of Miracle" and Living Water". One could e-mail me back with information about where to obtain these CD's. My e-mail address is: God Bless your parish in the mission work as we strive towards our Salvation. With Christian Greetings.

Excellent web site which we'll visit more often. My family and I go to St. John Greek Orthodox Church in Sterling Heights, and today, because of the massage snowstorm that hit the midwest, we just finished digging out our driveway and were unable to attend liturgy. But because of the beauty of time zones, we still we able to enjoy the liturgy today via the internet. Thank you again and may you have continued success with you parish and this web site.

Congratulations WWW.GOHOLYCROSS.ORG on your 10000th hit this morning!! This is a remarkable achievement for a truly incomparable website, reflecting an equally incomparable community. This week, the love and vitality of Holy Cross truly shine through. We began last night with a truly magical evening of carols and merriment commemorating Father Peter's 50th birthday. God bless all our talented young people, who played musical instruments and sang and added so much to the Christmas spirit. Tonight, our families will mass for an evening of Family to Family sharing when we will bring Christmas joy to many local families who are far less fortunate in things of the material world. Many of us will leave those homes with a far more important gift -- the love and joy we will receive in embracing a family we had not previously met and a reminder of the great abundance God has provided for us. Tuesday, many of us will go caroling through the Belmont and San Mateo areas and get in the true spirit of Christmas. And of course attend the inspiring liturgy services of the Nativity on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. To all at Holy Cross, including those in our new electronic family at GOHOLYCROSS, a Joyous Christmas and the Best Ever in 1999!!!

Glory to the Father and the Son and to the Holy Spirit forever and to the ages of ages AMEN!!! This site is truly an inspiration and may God bless you with His peace this Holy Nativity Lenten period. I was raised the daughter of a Wesleyan minister and the Lord led me to Orthodoxy almost 5 years ago. Praise His Holy name! I am thirsty for information and learning the Faith. I often feel very 'unwelcome' in my own parish as I am not Greek and this site provides for me a very positive resource for learning. It is such a shame to be a witness to the 'Greek-only' mentality at my parish and to see the many people who have left the church because of the lack of acceptance. Love acceptance and inclusion is the very essence of Christ and His Holy Apostolic Church. The Orthodox church is such a 'hidden treasure' in America and it is a shame that not more is being done to carry the truth to the American people. We are a mission church and yet to have Divine Liturgy in Greek only will not reach the people if they do not understand. Did the Disciples go out to the other nations and not speak their tongue? No they brought the faith in the native language for the people to understand and come to Christ.. Please pray for our parish at Saint George Greek Orthodox Church that the light of Christ's love and peace that passeth all understanding may fill the hearts of all the people at the parish. Blessings to you for your outreach, and in all your endeavors. a sinner ruth

It is very enjoyable reading comments from near and far and especially gratifying to know that many people are able to "tune in" to the Holy Liturgy on Sundays from our church. Being a member of the Holy Cross Choir for many years makes it is doubly gratifying to know that people who are unable to attend church can hear the hymns and "sing along" at home.

The Fun Zone for the kids truly lived up to its name with plenty of new fun things like the kiddy cars. And the entertainment was superb and virtually nonstop. And our young people really stole the show with a most heart warming play and all the Greek dancing exhibitions. The Festival Ensemble was outstanding and so was Bouzouki Express. Can't wait to see what's in store for the 1999 Festival.

I have only just discovered your site by accident. I think it's great and plan to visit regularly. I had the pleasure of seeing your parish while visiting relatives in the Bay Area last year and was very impressed.I would like to listen to your webcast of the divine liturgy sometime but due to the time difference (it would be 1am Monday here)I would miss it. Will it be recorded so that it can be played back at a later time?

Wonderful web site! As a Byzantine Catholic (Roman Catholic Father and Greek Orthodox mother (Greek, German, Irish, French, etc. descent, i.e., an American), I am so happy to find a place where the Gospel of Christ as understood through the Greek-Speaking Fathers (and Mothers) of the Church is presented in decent American English. May the Lord bless all who strive to announce the Gospel of Christ to those who truly need it. As a Greek Orthodox priest friend said to me recently, "We have much to answer for....". "Let us love one another...." and hope that the Lord will forgive us our silly squabbles and let us live the Gospel before those who do not yet believe. (Happy feast of St. Elias; Lord knows, we need his help now.)

    Athens, Greece - Monday, July 13, 1998 at 08:08:31 (PDT)

I am seeking likeminded Orthodox who also pray to see modern theologians and clergy address terms such as "theosis," "exhomoiosis," "perichoresis," as essential to popular Orthodox language from the pulpits and the pews in the new era of the Church. Rather than hinge Orthodoxy on ethnic parochialism, maybe we can sprout new shoots into the oikoumene of a cosmic, shared Orthodox language that speaks to today's issues in the same way our holy fathers and mothers did throughout Holy Tradition. Holy Tradition is today but not as it was yesterday; Holy Tradition is not yesterday. The Holy Spirit speaks today in today's vernacular. My heart grieves that we've not a united, equal and equitable Orthodox spiritual voice for all and in all. Perhaps I am praying for too much. Orthodox Christianity is "the faith that established the oikoumnene," called to transform the inner person AND transfigure the world. This is our legacy.

Great site! Have you considered publishing cassettes of Orthros and Liturgy (preferably in English). Although there are recordings from the festal cycles, what I would like to have when I am on the road is a set that corresponds approximately to the services for the day. I know that not every Sunday is Orthros Gospel 2, Tone 3, and St Eudoxia, but that is a better match for July 12 than the Nativity or Pascha. Keep up the good work and Christ be with you!

Greetings. I greatly enjoyed your web site. It is very well done. I am a Protestant - a United Methodist - but during the last months I have been reading Orthodox web sites and books about Orthodoxy, everything I can find. I feel drawn to the Orthodox faith, but have never been to an Orthodox church. My husband, unfortunately, does not understand this so I am having to back off rather than pursue this any further. I only pray that, if it is the will of the Lord that Orthodoxy is to be part of our life of faith, that He will somehow make it possible and bring it about. Please pray for us, that we will be led in the right path and be where we truly need to be. I shall continue to read what is here whenever I can. Thank you so much for your wonderful Christian witness.

An open reply to Art Vogel (your e-mail address doesn't work) : There is no charge to listen to the webcast of the Divine Liturgy, save your own Internet connection costs. If you're worried that "RealAudio Player" has a fee connected to it - don't. "RealAudio Player" is a free download and allows you to listen to any "RealAudio" broadcast off the Internet. You can download it from the site mentioned on our webpage. ["Real Audio Player PLUS" with many more bells and whistles - DOES cost about $30 - but even then, you have a 30 day money back guarantee if it doesn't suit your needs.]

I am an Anglo-Cypriot working and living in Greece. I have always known where the Truth lies although I let myself pass through hell before I admitted it to myself. Still I believe that I have learnt from everything that has happend to me. I don't kid myself. I am at the starting point and I expect that many things will happen in the future that will knock me back. I know one thing however. I love Jesus Christ with my heart and soul and I believe that He is the only way to salvation. At present I'm trying to help a brother of ours accept the Trinity, Ton Triadiko Theo. I have my own views on the subject (in line with our faith of course) but I welcome any other views. I would also like to mention that I have very recently visited the U.S.A. and I have realised that our faith is kept alive there and perhaps in a better state than Greece and Cyprus. I hope that all the Fathers there are kept in good health by the Lord so that we can keep our faith alive. With brotherly love Alexia

It was a real involved experience. It's not easy being a munk.they have long hours. They get up at 12:30 a.m. and go to sleep at 8:30 p.m. They have greek services 365 days a year. they don't eat meat at all. mostly eat beans, potatos, pasta and some fish. It is a beautiful monestary. I think everyone should visit one at least once.

Great new additions to the OCF at Stanford page. The new links are great; further aiding our Orthodox students with practical info! It will be even better when it is hooked into the list of organizations at Stanford. Kudos, Kudos, Kudos...

Your parish directory addition is a wonderful tool. It will allow us to get a quick list of all residents of a particular city. I hope you will soon use your FLASHING stuff on the front page to publicize our fantastic, best in the Bay Area - Greek Festival. Keep up the great work.

Thank you for putting the word Festival in red as just about the thing you see on the web site. That's critical during the month of August. Do our advertisers know they are getting this valuable web exposure? Anyway, keep up the great work. (Probably no need to put the cooking schedule out here...)

Hi Father Peter: Great website but where's the choir??? Thanks for all your terrific input this weekend at the Church Music Conference. Don't forget - we expect a HUGE adult and youth choir group in Phoenix next summer (of course, accompanied by their priest!!). Take care and God Bless . . . Kristen
