Beautiful. I remembered my wedding. It's what you call a big fat Greek wedding Ha. I had about 275 people. The band played Greek and American music. I remembered alot of people throwing money at us when we were dancing. A Greek custom, its good luck. When I danced with my Father, I felt so special. But when my husband danced with his Mother, there wasn't a dry eye. My husband was in Viet Nam. Thank God he made it home. She was holding my husband so tight. Thankfully that he did come home. What wonderful memories, fifty years later.

It is good to see that Fr Elpidios upholds and honours the name and reputation of the clergy who have studied at St Andrew's Theological College. He is a credit to our Church in Australia and lives up to his name by bestowing hope to many others. - From a fellow Melbourne graduate and brother in Christ, who has not forgotten the support or friendship you extended to my humble persons during my time at St Andrew's. God-willing I will visit you in Perth soon.

When I lived in Australia I use to go to tons of Greek weddings. Mostly the brides were pretty young though, and the marriages were kind of arranged but agreed upon by both bride and groom. Times have changed.

With respect is there a reason why the bride does not have her head covered. Its a lovely ceremony much more modern than when i saw one as a child
@yukino46364 жыл бұрын
Because a hair covering is not necessary. The hair is the women's head covering
@braedonpoteat73454 жыл бұрын
Hair covering isn't that common in Greek Orthodoxy in America today (becoming less common in Greece too) it's not an important thing and thus something that priests tend not to stress. Orthodox emphasize the spirit over the letter of the law, so modesty is what's emphasized rather than literal hair covering, since hair isn't sexualized in the way it was in the ancient world.

Did you notice the veil on the back of the bride's head? As much as it may be unpopular to say so, the real reason why many Greeks no longer wear them is because the fashionable hairdos of the 1950's were expensive for women and having them ruffled on Sunday was deemed inconvenient. Consequently, the practice was largely abandoned due to the nagging of women. A Greek priest told me as much. It still remains the official position that a woman should cover her head for the reception of all mysteries/sacraments.

Differing in everything and agreeing on the worship of a deaf tree, which religion are you talking about?This video I showed to my friends from the Christian faith, and there was an argument between us for two months, and then they were convinced that Jesus, peace be upon him, was a messenger sent by God, and not a god as they believed, and thanks to God Almighty, they believed in God, Muhammad and the Islamic religion.

People usually giggle at this moment because they have to drink all the wine thats in the cup..so at times..its a little hard to chug the wine if the bride as in this case is not a "bar stool"..Some priests go back and forth to groom and bride..but here he went groom first and bride only..I assure you no one is laughing at the priest..

How different is the Greek Orthodox to Coptics?
@chrismichal82424 жыл бұрын
Jane Kirk The greek orthodox church is the Orthodoxy, the ancient church. The Coptic is a heretical church and it's not Orthodoxy.
@Ggdivhjkjl3 жыл бұрын
The differences are cultural and linguistic. The Coptic Church is the Church of the Copts, the native people of Egypt, while the Greek Church is the Church of the Greeks. The Coptic Orthodox Church is one of the Oriental Orthodox Churches while the Greek Orthodox Church is Eastern Orthodox. As numerous agreed statements between the Eastern and Oriental Orthodox Churches state, the theological disputes of the 5th century (which led to the estrangement of the two families of Churches) were largely due to linguistic misunderstandings resulting from the same word carrying slightly different meanings in each area. The resulting confusion, coupled with vying factions politically competing for supremacy, caused a rupture. While debates continued, the rise of Islam made communication somewhat harder so full communion has not been re-established til this day, however informal inter-communion is common in some places, especially among married folk of different backgrounds in Syria.
