Kate,

It seems that you have really nothing to worry about, seeing that you already have the desire and drive.  I really don't know the difficulty of switching from Erasmian to modern (I never learned Erasmian).  As far as the Greek Orthodox Church, the one located where I live teaches Greek, so I assume that would be the norm in any location.  And yes attending services at these Churches is great, especially when they sing.  I say, "Jump in and try", which is bound to be fruitful with your attitude.

As far as resources on-line, maybe this is beneficial, it sounds out four major conventions:
