True. Few of us can visit an overseas country, and it is simply not necessary to do that, anyway. It would be better if there were more Orthodox parishes in each town so it is possible to find Orthodox places of worship in more places. Anyway, we must work with what we are given, but there is a growing place for Orthodoxy, even in America.
It\'s a question mostly of finding a parish that uses English language. The only obstacle to growth of Orthodoxy in America, ISTM, seems to be the liturgical language question.
The ones that will appeal to the average American will be those churches where English language is the priority for Orthodox evangelism.
