"I've been going to an Orthodox church for a year or so now, though only in full communion for a few months,...." He is now in "full communion" with Orthodoxy?????????!!!!!!!!!! What's that supposed to mean; the Church of Rod or Bishop Rod has now come into Orthodoxy?

I take it to mean he was studying to become Orthodox and finally was Christmated and allowed to take communion.

Your interpretation was way off base, IMHO.

" I take it to mean he was studying to become Orthodox and finally was Christmated and allowed to take communion."

I suspect that's exactly what he meant. Its not what he said. What he said is a distortion of the meaning of his conversion.

Do you think that individual lay people come "into communion" with Orthodoxy? Churches do, even bishops do, individual laymen don't.
