An informal chat with the wives of two priests from Western Rite parishes in the Antiochian Archdiocese.

Today Frederica is in her car on the way to a speaking engagement. While we are thinking about the Dormition of the Theotokos, Frederica reflects on an aspect of our mortality that is very comforting.

In between bites at the burger joint (recorded BEFORE the fast!), Frederica talks about courtship and dating.

We are walking with Frederica in a shopping mall today only to be bombarded by inappropriate images from a certain famous store.

Frederica, only occasionally distracted by her grandson, chats with daughter Megan about the foods we eat and maybe shouldn't eat.

Frederica is in Portland this week chatting with Kh. Krista West about the history and significance of Orthodox vestments. Krista makes vestments for clergy and has a web site where you can see her products.

Frederica chats with her father confessor about what it is like to hear confessions and to offer the forgiveness of Christ and his Church.

In her debut podcast, Frederica invites us into the back seat of her car to listen in on a conversation she is having with her husband, Fr. Gregory Mathewes-Green about catechumens. Feel free to listen, but don't make them miss their turn.
