I'm off to Melbourne tomorrow morning [6:45am!] for the Melbourne Antiochian Orthodox Retreat, which is being held from Friday evening to Sunday afternoon. I'm looking forward to the teaching and the fellowship with our brothers and sisters from the parishes down there.
Sunday night I am meeting up with some people from Ship of Fools at funkfish, which looks like a wonderful restaurant. Monday will be spent relaxing, I hope, with my fellow parishioners around Melbourne before we head back to Sydney in the evening.
Talk to you all Tuesday.

Everyone is made in God's image; but to be in His likeness is granted only to those who through great love have brought their own freedom into subjection to God. For only when we do not belong to ourselves do we become like Him who through love has reconciled us to Himself. No one achieves this unless he persuades his soul not to be distracted by the false glitter of this life.
