Hey /christian/. I've been a Protty since I converted about 5 years ago, but I'm going to an Orthodox church tomorrow because I feel spiritually stagnated and am running out of options. Is there anything I should know before I go? What is Orthros? Am I all

Hey /christian/. I've been a Protty since I converted about 5 years ago, but I'm going to an Orthodox church tomorrow because I feel spiritually stagnated and am running out of options. Is there anything I should know before I go? What is Orthros? Am I allowed to take Communion?

Learn Russian.

No, you can't go up and take Communion, but I've read that you may be offered part of the bread that wasn't consecrated.

What is a Greek, Armenian, Romanian, or Antiochian Orthodox church? Seriously though, if their website is in English, it's probably not a super first-gen ethnic church.

One of the canonical hours, the Catholics call it Matins. Typically done around dawn

Be sure to learn what they believe in.

Don't go orthoprot, they don't believe in sola fide, sola scriptura, sola gratia, etc… and they pray FOR THE INTERCESSION of Mary.

If possible go to a church where liturgy is english unless you want 2-3 hours of beautiful chants where you don't understand a word and feel lost.
