SUNDAY OF ORTHODOXY AND SUNDAY OF THE HOLY CROSS 2010

APRIL 2010

SUNDAY OF ORTHODOXY AND SUNDAY OF THE HOLY CROSS 2010

PASTORAL THOUGHTS Beloved Parishioners, Our Lord s Glorious Resurrection is again with us, shedding even more abundantly the Love and great Compassion of God. Unworthy though we may be, mercy, forgiveness, loving kindness, compassion, charity, salvation, peace, and sanctification are ours, if we but humbly accept the great gift of God in our lives, Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Christ lived righteously on earth in order to recreate us. He suffered that we might be forgiven of our sins. He died that we might be spared the eternal damnation of eternal Death. He was resurrected that we may also be resurrected spiritually and physically. And He ascended into Heaven that we might receive the Holy Spirit and His Grace and Power that we may become like Christ. Because of the Resurrection, the Feast of Feasts, there is Life, there is Hope, and there is real Peace. If we live and walk in the Light of the Resurrection we shall spread light and the world will know it. Let us humbly, and with true repentance, seek the Lord while He may be found and let us make Him Master of our lives that we may become true and real Christian heirs of the Kingdom and recipients of God s Blessings and Gifts. I pray all of you have a most spiritually edifying Holy Week and Pascha. May the joy of the Resurrection burn in your hearts always and eternally as it did in the hearts of the two disciples on their way from Emmaus when our Resurrected Lord appeared and walked with them. Praying that you and your loved ones be blessed by the Holy Resurrection of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ this year and always, I remain, In the Resurrected Lord, +Father Constantine Aliferakis CHILDREN SHOULD BE IN CHURCH FOR THE FOLLOWING SERVICES: Holy Friday, April 2 nd at 9:30 a.m. for the Retreat and at 1:00 p.m. for the Apokathelosis. Fr. Constantine will make excusal forms available for those who might need them. Pascha/Easter, April 4 th for the Resurrection, 12 midnight and April 22 nd for St. George Vespers at 7:00 p.m. HOLY COMMUNION- Holy Communion will be offered on April 1 st, 3rd, 4 th, 9 th and 23 rd. Holy Communion is truly the Body and Blood of our Lord Jesus Christ and becomes fire burning the unworthy. For this reason we appeal to your love that before receiving Holy Communion you take care to make your Holy Confession, receive the permission of your Spiritual Father, and prepare with the required fast as established by the Holy Fathers of the Church. RESPECT FOR THE RESURRECTED CHRIST- Show your respect for the Resurrected Christ by remaining for the entire Divine Liturgy. It is the height of irreverence, disrespect and faithlessness to exit the Church just when the Resurrected Christ appears to us in His glory and beckons us to come forward and taste His graciousness in the Sacrament of Holy Communion. For the 40 days of Lent and Holy Week we anticipate this joyous moment of Christ s victory over death. It is inconceivable to me that upon hearing the good news that our Savior has resurrected we choose to excuse ourselves from His presence. If anything, our desire to be with Him after His Passion should be our only desire. Are we to abandon Him again just like His disciples? Are we in such a rush to sit at our paschal table? Have not 40 days of fasting taught us to throw off the shackles of servitude to our bellies? Give your priest the opportunity to personally greet you with the words, "Christ is Risen and to give you a red paschal egg at the conclusion of the Divine Liturgy! And join your fellow parishioners for the Anastasis Fellowship Reception after dismissal of the Liturgy (2:30 a.m.) EASTER OFFERING-Glorifying His holy Resurrection, let us make a generous contribution to His Church. Let your gift reflect your faith in Him, as well as your appreciation and gratitude that He ascended the Cross of His own free will and was crucified for you and me and in place of you and me. Be moved to return love for love! Send your treasure in the

offering envelope you have received. God bless you for your generosity!! ***NOTE: Please write your name on the Paschal Offering envelope so that your Easter donation can be properly acknowledged in our May newsletter. RELIGIOUS CALENDAR ***For the Holy Week Services, please see special bulletin insert in the Easter mailing.

ΠΟΙΜΑΝΤΙΚΕΣ ΣΚΕΨΕΙΣ Αγαπητοι Ενοριτες, Και παλιν, Η Αγια Αναστασις διασκορπα την αϕθονον Αγαπην και Ευσπλαχνιαν του Θεου. Παρ ολον στι ειµεθα αναξιοι, οµως τυγχανοµεν το ελεος, την συγχωρησιν, την τρυφερην αγαθοτητα, την συµπονιαν, την ελεηµοσυνην, την σωτηριαν, την ειρηνην και τον καθαγιασµον εαν παρακαλεσωµεν, εαν µε ταπεινωσιν, δεχθουµεν εις την ζωην µας αυτο το µεγαλον δωρον, τον Κυριον και Σωτηρα ηµων Ιησουν Χριστον. Ο Χριστος εζησε δικαιως επι την γην δια να µας αναδηµιουργηση. Υπεφερε ινα συγχωρηθουµεν τας αµαρτιας µας.

Υπεστη τον θανατον ινα απελευθερωθουµε την αιωνιαν κολασιν του αιωνιου θανα του. Ανεστη ινα και ηµεις αναστηθουµεν πνευµατικως και σωµατικως. Και ανεληϕ θη εις τον Ουρανον ινα και ηµεις λαβωµεν το Παναγιον Πνευµα και την Χαριν και υναµιν του Θεου και γινωµεν και ηµεις ως ο Χριστος. Επειδη υπαρχει η Αναστασις, η Εορτη των Εορτων, υπαρχει Ζωη, υπαρχει Ελπις, και υπαρχει η πραγµατικη Ειρηνη. Εαν ζουµεν και περιπατουµεν µεσα εις την Λαµψιν της Αναστασεως, τοτε θα διασκορπισωµεν αυτο το ϕως και θα το γνωριση ολος ο κοσµος. Ας τοτε µε ταπεινωσιν και πραγµατικην µετανοιαν, αναζητησωµεν τον Κυριον και ας Τον καµνωµεν Κυριον της ζωης µας ινα γινωµεν πιστοι και πραγµατικοι Χριστιανοι κληρονοµοι της Βασιλειας και δεκτες της Ευλογιας και των ωρων του Θεου.
