    Lovely explanations!
    My family are converts from Protestant to Orthodox. I have been Orthodox 30 years now.
    My daughter has 10 children (7 adopted) and her home has a central family prayer ‘corner’. The children have created their own prayer space in their rooms.
    My son-in-law built a chapel in the back yard for my daughter to retreat to for quiet prayer. It is lovely.
    I have a few friends that have the hours on their cellphones. The bells ring on the hour and the reading shows up (conveniently).
    Audiobook format would work (I have a reading disability and can only do audiobooks).
    If you read Russian, look for my daughter’s book The Ascetic Lives of Mothers by Annalisa Boyd (a prayer book) published by Ancient Faith Publishing but published in Russia and released in other languages.

      @TaraandSky learn and know the traditions of our Catholic faith. What Holasona is showing is not different than what we also do or should be doing.
      I recommend you try attending a Latin Mass if you haven’t already.
      My home is stockpiled with all the Sacramentals that’s on this video and more. Do you have holy water font by your front door and bless yourself as you leave, for example. Good Friday oil another example.
      Every morning I wake up before my family, light a candle and bless EVERY room (while they are sleeping) making a sign of the cross with my candle, starting from my front door asking for blessings upon my family and protection.

    I’m a catholic mom of a nine year old son. We pray before mealtime, we do have some crucifixes in our home and some icons (my husband loves them a lot). We are all active in our church, my son is an altar boy, I am a psalmist (singing from the psalms after each reading of the Old Testament) and my husband is the one preparing church for services and cleaning everything up after masses. My son has a little basin for holy water in his room. (Dried up, thanks for the reminder!) We don’t have as many traditions regarding bread, salt and things that connect the divine to daily life. I love that in your home with the blessed salt. I would love that very much.
    Again, all the best to you kids, may they be healthy very soon again!

    I’m a Catholic and we do of the same things. We have a home “altar” with icons and incense. We get our house blessed once a year, although in a different way. I love the idea of blessing salt. I’ll have to ask my priest if he can do that. We have prayers every three hours, but we aren’t obligated to do them if you haven’t done any vows.

      It's not a matter of being proud. Catholicism is a beautiful faith. But through my studies I have found I prefer the older Catholicism. The pre-Vatican II Catholicism. And the more I learn, the further back I hope to go. Orthodoxy, from what I understand, practices now very much like it was practiced before the schism. I won't apologize for seeking to draw closer to Christ and faith.

      Do you have a Byzantine parish near you? I am Roman Catholic/Latin Rite, but have recently been attending my local Byzantine parish and I'm in love with it! I've been disheartened by the post-Vatican II church too, and I'm not as comfortable with the Latin Mass community, as much as the liturgy is beautiful. But I'm finding the Byzantine Rite to be a beautiful combination of the unity of Rome, with the compassion and philosophy of Eastern Christianity! I've been listening to the What God is Not podcast with Mother Natalia and Fr. Michael O'Loughlin, too :)

    hi there! love from Ethiopia .since we are in the same church I can see the resemblance for example here the church fathers come and bless hour home too but they only use water and sometimes holy incense (but only the church father put the incense I don't know how they allow you to do this your self there b/c this is a religion practices with a meaning so that is why only the church father offer the incense to god just like the old days) other resemblance is the prayer corner of course it's preferred to have a prayer room if they have one but if not the prayer corner will do fine. and the other thing is the book you mentioned the prayer book is the other resemblance I see. Any how I am very happy you post this and looking forward to see what other common religious practice we have .may god be with you and your family and don't forget to put Ethiopia in your next visiting list believe me you won't regrate it and you will have a chance to see what you only read in book with you own eye

      Hi! Thank you so much for sharing! It is great to know that our traditions are so alike! Regarding the incense burning, in Armenian church and in Eastern Orthodox churches it is a common practice for the faithful to burn incense at home. It is considered, that incense not only carries our prayers to God, but it also cleanses and purifies our homes. Ethiopia is definitely on my travel list! I have an Ethiopian church near me and I frequently go there to pray. I admire your tradition of taking off shoes before entering the church. I also love how beautiful parishioners look in their special church attire, women wearing long white veils. And the church itself is very unique! I would love to see some old Ethiopian churches!
