U can say I’ve done it but it doesn’t really count due do it being a Catholic confession and they don’t have the sacraments

I really want to confess but it’s hard since I live far from my church

so my rule of thumb usually for the NT translation as my priest friend pointed out. In Luke look at the part where it says if only Mary was cleansed or the family was cleansed in the synagogue.

⚡️до 2️⃣0️⃣0️⃣-летия Императрицы Марии Александровны 🔔осталось 8️⃣2️⃣дня
🗣️Друзья!
Императрица Мария Александровна много путешествовала, однако никогда не покидала Европейского континента, пожалуй, с одним лишь исключением… Осенью 1874 г. Императрица отправится к берегам «Туманного Альбиона», о чем не преминут написать Лондонские газеты:
«Прибытие этой прославленной дамы по велению материнской любви и заботы, к родам ее любимой дочери, молодой жены второго сына нашей королевы, представляет собой событие, вызывающее большой интерес у английского народа. Ее Императорское Величество, как сообщалось, прибыла в Лондон с континента в 8 часов утра в четверг на неделе в сопровождении своего старшего сына, Цесаревича. На вокзале Чаринг-Кросс ее встретил герцог Эдинбургский. С тех пор она оставалась с герцогиней Эдинбургской в Букингемском дворце. Ребенок родился за пять или за шесть часов до приезда своей августейшей бабушки».
«The arrival of this illustrious lady, upon an errand of maternal love and care, at the childbirth bedside of her beloved daughter, the young wife of our Queen’s second son, is an occasion of great interest to the English people. Her Imperial Majesty, as reported otherwise, reached London from the Continent at eight o’clock in the morning on Thursday week, accompanied by her eldest son, the Imperial Grand Duke Cesarewitch. She was met at Charing-cross station by his Royal Highness the Duke of Edinburgh. She has since remained with the Duchess of Edinburgh at Buckingham Palace. The babe was born five or six hours before the arrival of its august grandmamma.»Читать полностью…

Athos is difficult to organise so that probably won’t be happening. Better off just organising yourself a solo pilgrimage there

One of my priests discussed confession prior to being baptized, it wasn't an exact answer he said it isn't exactly necessary for someone who isn't baptized as you'll do a life confession however if you're feeling called to do it, there isn't harm. The devil wouldn't call you to confess after all

Yes the pilgrimage to Athos from the London parish was around a month ago. The Birmingham priest also organises an annual pilgrimage to the Holy Land although given the war (which incidentally started in the middle of last year's pilgrimage) there is nothing planned for this year. I'll try to remember to post details in advance in this group.

I know the Serbian Church in London does it. Usually they would have gone around now.
