Few can.

Youngsters, mostly. (And then only because they sing!)

Some newcomers try, too.

But nobody has to. (In a moment you’ll find out about the transport & ‘TLC’ provided every step of the way.)

We all depend on The Word.

And The Word depends (as it were) on each pilgrim in his Church to get the word out about the pilgrimage of life: the return journey to The Father, through the Son.

Are you an Eastern Christian with that kind of aspiration? Or do you know an Eastern Christian to invite to join in the fun? Read more
