My Pastor sent an email to our congregation concerning the corona virus. I go to an Orthodox Church. Here is an edited copy of the letter:


"O Lord and Master of my life.."

Dear brothers and sisters in the Lord: As you well know the entire world is being affected by this new plague called the coronovirus. You have all heard how dangerous it is. You have certainly heard the virus IS in our state and neighboring states and infecting many.

I want you to know that prayers are being said for each and every one of you and candles are lit by many of the faithful for our own dear parish members, for our families and all others! I ask you to pray heartily before the Lord as I am sure you are doing.

I understand and the Holy Church knows your trepidation (the fear that something may happen) in coming around a large group of people as we worship the Lord on the Lord's Day, Sunday. If you feel you must stay away, especially the elderly with medical problems, I am sure the Lord will forgive you.

Still feel free to come forward for Holy Communion as it is offered to all the faithful during the Liturgy.

If your pastor gets the virus, whether mild or severe, he will self-quarantine. The phone ministry will contact the faithful if this occurs. This may mean no Liturgy or services for that time period.

Let us all pray we and our loved ones do not get this virus!

Let us pray! Fr. XXXXXXXX


I replied that I am NOT afraid and will be there as long as we have a church service.
