ANNOUNCEMENT 3/13/19:

For the very first time in one year and a half, a listener to my Orthodox Survival Course proactively, without my asking for anything, sent me a donation to help keep the effort going. May the Lord bless him! I appreciate it, and I need it. I also needed the wakeup call. Read on:

Our few and valiant parishioners at St. Irene with a few faithful benefactors from the GOC in America sacrifice month after month in order to free me to do this work of the Church that is now affecting the lives of hundreds around the world, but we are indeed few, it is actually not enough for my family to live on, and we need reinforcements. If you value what I am doing, you want to be a part of it, and you can help, may the Lord bless you! I've waited this long to start asking for help, but I cannot wait any more, out of fairness to my parishioners and my family. They are making all the sacrifices, while many others are reaping the fruits.

There are three ways you can help:

Send a direct gift via PayPal to my account at frstevenallen@gmail.com

If you want to receive a receipt at the end of the year for your taxes, send a check to St. Irene of Chrysovalantou Church, 745 Barclay Circle, Suite 355, Rochester Hills, MI 48307 USA, and earmark it "for Fr. Steven."

Buy my new book, *The Eternal Sacrifice* at http://www.lulu.com/spotlight/FrStevenAllen. It is available both as a paperback and an ebook. If you have already purchased a copy, buy a few for gifts for your Orthodox friends or those interested in Orthodoxy. And pass the word on through your own social media. Those of you who know a pastor or church bookstore manager - give them a gift copy and encourage them to stock it! Just write me at frstevenallen@gmail.com to learn how.

I plan, God willing, to start a SubscribeStar page, which will enable those who want to support my work to easily make a donation each month. SubscribeStar works like Patreon, except that, unlike Patreon, they are not shutting down the accounts of those who voice opinions outside the ever-narrowing mainstream. I'll let everyone know when that is up and running.

May the Lord abundantly reward all of our benefactors! Those who sow abundantly shall reap abundantly.

“The Church is without beginning, without end and eternal, just as the Triune God, her founder, is without beginning, without end and eternal. She is uncreated just as God is uncreated. She existed before the ages, before the angels, before the creation of the world – before the foundation of the world as the Apostle Paul says. She is a divine institution and in her dwells the whole fullness of divinity. She is an expression of the richly varied wisdom of God. She is the mystery of mysteries. She was concealed and was revealed in the last of times. The Church remains unshaken because she is rooted in the love and wise providence of God. The three persons of the Holy Trinity constitute the eternal Church.” —St. Porphyrios of Kavsokalyvia, Wounded by Love

Yes, in the sense that it is the beginning of the earthly warfare of the Apostles' preaching and the Fathers' and martyrs' struggles for the Faith in the New Testament Church.

Would we say then that pentecost was more precisely the birth of the church militant?
