The One Hundred Forty Sixth Psalm
Lauda, anima mea.

PRAISE the LORD, O my soul: while I live, will I praise the LORD; * yea, as long as I have any being, I will sing praises unto my God.

O put not your trust in princes, nor in any child of man; * for there is no help in them.

For when the breath of man goeth forth, he shall turn again to his earth, * and then all his thoughts perish.

Blessed is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, * and whose hope is in the LORD his God:

Who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that therein is; * who keepeth his promise for ever;

Who helpeth them to right that suffer wrong; * who feedeth the hungry.

The LORD looseth men out of prison; * the LORD giveth sight to the blind.

The LORD helpeth them that are fallen; * the LORD careth for the righteous.

The LORD careth for the strangers; he defendeth the fatherless and widow: * as for the way of the ungodly, he turneth it upside down.

The LORD thy God, O Sion, shall be King for ever-more, * and throughout all generations.

Markos, I saw your comment and thought I'd drop you a line since I came into Orthodoxy from Anglicanism (With a good dose of Reformed theology thrown in.) If there is anything I can help with, just ask.

While I recognize your troubles with receiving form a female priest, the problem is actually much wider. If you are in communion with someone, then you are in communion with everyone else they are in communion with, so simply not receiving from a woman won't solve the problem, since you might as well be since one receives from one who is in communion with those who do.
