Hi, everybody, I'm Virgy and I'm new here. I'm almost 17 years old (my birthday is in July) and I dedicate my time serving God and my husband. I'm an Eastern Orthodox Christian from Moldova (the country). Nice to meet you all! ♡

Welcome. You are 16 and already married. Is that common in Moldova?

Less common than it used to be in the past, but still fairly common, especially in the not so big cities and religious community. You need parental and juridiciary approval to marry at 16.
I like it. Quite a rustic life. Typical May weather, 14°C and cloudy right now at 10:40.

We don't have many Orthodox here and we welcome your tradition. A lively bunch. I hope you are not scared off with our exuberance and passion. Lots of differing opinions here. Many are at different points in their spiritual journey. Many rail against the orthodoxy and many support it.
I look forward to getting to know you and learn about you and your country.
Hey Virgy, welcome to the forum, tell us a little bit about yourself, that’s if you feel comfortable doing that.
I do hope you enjoy your time here, fellowshipping with us all.plus learning about the Lord, God Bless on your spiritual journey with Him.xx
Sure. I'm a housewife. I love reading, going to Church, praying, cooking, baking, knitting, working in the garden, drawing, music, movies... I fast every Monday, Wednesday and Friday (besides the big fasts of the year such as the Great Lent and Nativity Fast). I got married last year; my husband is a businessman involved in farming and construction. We have a British Shorthair cat, and are planning on having kids very soon. Virgy is actually the English name my husband gave me.
Thanks. The only non-Orthodoxs I've met are Baptists and Evangelists - they're a minority here in Moldova. I'm not sure those are their exact names in English though since here they're known under the umbrella term of pocăiți, which translates to penitents I guess. I also know we have some Jehovah's Witnesses in the country, though I've never personally met any. The vast majority are Orthodoxs.
@LadyVirgy Welcome to the forum I hope to see you around.
Thank you! I can't promise I'll be super active since I have a daily screentime limit, but I'll read around (and post) whenever I can.
Best thing to do then is go straight to 'new posts' and only read the ones that have just a few answers. That's what I do anyway.Thank you! I can't promise I'll be super active since I have a daily screentime limit, but I'll read around (and post) whenever I can.
Thank you. My husband has to approve all the sites I visit and he approved of this one.

Maybe you could talk him into joining as well.Thank you. My husband has to approve all the sites I visit and he approved of this one.
I’m not 100% sure but I think @WalterandDebbie and others maybe post as a husband and wife combination.
Make A Blessed Day!
It must be so nice to be married at such a young age. Finding that special someone so early in life.Thank you. My husband has to approve all the sites I visit and he approved of this one.
Haha, yes, though I didn't really "find" him. He got me the traditional Moldovan way: buying me from my parents.
