I’m an Orthodox Christian, so here it is:

Why not celebrate St. John Kochurov (commemorated Oct. 31), who is both an American and a Russian saint?

We Orthodox Christians are called to shun many worldly practices, yet our lives can be filled with joy!!!!

I appreciate all of these celebrations. But I don’t personally find a little kid-fun at Hallowe’en to be incompatible with religion.
