At Vespers today there were so many people that the priest joked that there’s barely any space for the angels. Most of the people are under 30. This is amazing because we used to have 3-4 people at Wednesday Vespers.
Only to think that all these young men (and 3 young women!!) would want to come to church after work on a Wednesday night. Things are looking up.
Nice! We are crowded for liturgy these days, but I have especially noticed the increase in people who are there *at the beginning of orthros* (dedication!)– used to be just the chanters and clergy, and now it’s consistently at least 20 people. A few dozen at vespers tonight, and there wasn’t even a class to attend after 😀
Exciting!
