==Personal==
===Magda===
I am [[marriage|married]] to a seminarian deacon who is studying at the [[Holy Cross Greek Orthodox School of Theology (Brookline, Massachusetts)|Holy Cross Greek Orthodox School of Theology]] in Brookline, Massachusetts.
A [[convert]] from [[Roman Catholic Church|Catholicism]], I was [[chrismation|chrismated]] on [[January 25]], 2004, the [[feast day]] of St. [[Gregory the Theologian]]. I chose the name ''Magdalene'' for my middle name to honor my [[patron saint]], St. [[Mary Magdalene]], whose [[feast day]] is [[July 22]].
===[[User:Vandrona|Magda's Husband]]===
My husband, Dn. Virgil, came from Romania to pursue undergraduate studies. His most recent degree is a doctorate in computer science. At Holy Cross, he participates in the school's soccer and basketball teams. He enjoys chanting, working for the Church, and sharing really bad puns. He is nigh invulnerable and quite tall, both on purpose.
Our parish assignment is at St. [[Basil the Great|Vasilios]] Greek Orthodox Church [http://www.stvasilios.org] in Peabody, Massachusetts. He is involved in adult education as well as teaching the [[hymn]]s of the Church to the church school students.
