I am filled with joy, you have found the Holy Catholic Apostolic Church teachings . The Orthodox Church is a spritual feast for the senses. When you attend a Divine Liturgy you SEE all in the church service , HEAR the priest, reader, SINGING , CHANTING choir and congregation actively participating singing responses , TASTE the communion body of Christ, SMELL the special incense of Frankincense,myrrh etc . ALL OF THESE helping lift you up as you contemplate Gods love for us as we worship and learn to love one another with our whole heart. The written icons tell of an important event through use of colors, EVERY DETAIL placement each having special meaning. Studying the how and why of written icons in Orthodoxy is a wonderful addition to your spiritual growth. Iconography , It’s a calling at some point in life, not an artist but a spiritual calling to write the visual divine event that is important in living and partaking in the living church calendar .GOD GRANT YOU MANY YEARS.
