It’s Iimi! Renounce All to Gain Everything

The girls get a bit of freedom to travel unescorted down to the Souton Mall, about an hour away from Babylon. While there, they run into Boris and Natasha Saul and Tasha, who were visiting their archpriest. The couple mentions that Saul is interested in becoming a priest and Tasha, his priest-wife… which leads to snide comments against the Catholic Church. Will Iimi be able to show that the Catholic perspective is a way to… Renounce All to Gain Everything

Pre-Comic Notes: This comic was constructed the week before Christmas, so it’s shorter. God Willing, we’ll see you in 2025.

Post-Comic Notes:

I was surprised by the “bi-vocational” nature of certain married priests of Eastern Orthodox churches in America. Some smaller communities can’t afford to support a priest and family. There are seven million Orthodox people in the United States and an estimated 390,000 live in California.
