My 'Orthodoxy' originated in the Carpatho-Rusyn Orthodox Church. Both maternal and paternal grandparents came to the states in the early 1900's from the Carpathian Mountain region of Czechoslovakia. We're not 'Russian', but all Slavic people in that part of the world share close languages and customs. FOOD [ethnic dishes] being up at the top of the list! 😄
