Sophia took me along to a service at the Orthodox Church in North Oxford. There was singing almost all the way through from the little choir, and the priest too. The Church caters for Russian and Greek Orthodox people, so bits of the service were in Russian -- apparently on other Sundays there are bits in Greek :-) One of my favourite bits was when one little girl was lifted up to kiss the icon at the right of the picture, and stuck her tongue out to lick it..
