Any Orthodox Christians out there??

I am also a Russian Orthodox Christian living in Alaska. I live in Russian Mission. Haven't been much of a church goer since I was a child. I used to get scolded a lot for "messing around" while being an Altar server. The person who was doing the scolding knew I wasn't being mischievous while serving but would still scold me not the other people who were really being mischievous... I haven't tried to observe the lent since high school :frown:
Edit: Feel free to add

Hey guys! Im coptic and fasting for lent! Hope to hear great motivation! So what i do is shop for produce thats in season and mix in to rice. For example, i just bought a cabbage, boiled it and cut it up and added tomato sauce, salt, pepper, parsley. Its like making stuffed cabbage without stuffing ☺

Happy Lent and hope this is helpful.

Russian Orthodox here in AK..although I also go to the Greek orthodox church sometimes too:) soups are good like veggie borscht and red stew with no beef:)

You have a Russian AND a Greek Church? You probably also have a Taco Bell and a road that goes to another town.

(I'm in Juneau)

I bet there are a bunch of Russian Orthodox in Alaska given the history there.
