#greek orthodox church

[gemsofgreece]

HONEStly I'm a polish catholic and still voted greek orthodox in the poll klfjsdfkjd IT'S THE DRIP.

Usbsjakoaksnskak it’s not like I am the representative of the Greek Orthodox Church but thank you on its behalf 🙏 I had a lot of fun with this poll although to be honest some Catholics took it to heart so bitterly, it was a slight mood killer at times.

Aesthetic wise, I really like Catholicism. The architecture, the statues are superb. They are like palaces. Orthodoxy is very beautiful too, in a different way. Orthodox style can either be extremely extravagant or extremely humble, there is no in between. Or a mix of these two, like going through a hole in a semi-wrecked wall and there are jewels of gold and emeralds casually hanging from a barely coping wooden icon from 700 AD in there. That kind of thing.

In terms of teachings honestly, the differences aren’t all that serious IMO. I barely understand the issue in most of them.

Again thanks for the voting and….. just mentioning we are competing against the Amish on Monday. For anyone who wouldn’t like to displease these dripping dudes 😂😂😂

JK much love 🇵🇱✝️🤍☦️🇬🇷

The church, which is about 30 miles…

There are several events that we look forward to every summer, and one of those events is the Greek Fest!

Location: The Panegyri Greek Festival is located at the Assumption Greek Orthodox Church, 4376 Westlake Road, Erie, PA 16505. You really can’t miss it; you’ll notice…

Orthodox funeral services are gorgeous and they are so reverent when it comes to the deceased.
