{news} a few things you don't want to miss...
It's been a pretty busy couple of weeks. Busy, as in I've been knitting a ton of scarves! (My sincerest thanks to everyone who ordered, btw. :) I'm blogging from a shiny new MacBook Air thanks to you! If you haven't ordered but want to, I'm still taking orders until November 1. You can get all the details in the new shop located here.)But there are a few great things going on that I wanted to help spread the word about...First, Illumination Learning has partnered with OCN to bring you a fantastic Webinar this Saturday, October 20. Unfortunately, I won't be able to participate in it after all because I realized this is the weekend I'll be in a tent in the middle of the woods (yay camping!), but I will definitely be bringing my iPhone to tune in and hear all the fantastic speakers they have lined up. You can learn more about it by watching the video below and clicking the link to register. You can attend a whole Orthodox conference without leaving your home! How awesome is that?Also, to celebrate the release of Constantina Palmer's new book, The Scent of Holiness, she is hosting two terrific giveaways on her blog. Enter to win a copy of her book and a prayer rope she made herself or a prayer rope and an icon of Panagia Paramythia. The yarn used to make the prayer ropes was blessed on the holy skull of St. Raphael of Mytilene! What a blessing for the winners! I'm anxiously awaiting my copy and can't wait to post all about it.
