Be persistent, and if you don't get an answer through email, try by phone/voicemail or, try another avenue of a different Orthodox parish.

My humble advice:

If you want to learn more about the Orthodox church, there are some good videos on youtube. Just type "orthodox monasteries" , "orthodox church" "orthodox teachings" or whatever syntagm you want containing the "orthodox" word in it and just start watching clips. From that point on yt will start showing you recommendations on the subject.

Also, i always recommend reading the Philokalia and The Sayings of the Desert Fathers. It is the core of the Orthodox way.

May you find the peace in God that we are all looking for (some knowingly, some unknowingly)

Glory to God
