SUNDAY OF PENTECOST JUNE 3 After the Saviour's Ascension into the Heavens, the eleven Apostles and the rest of His disciples, the God-loving women who followed after Him from the beginning, His Mother, the most holy Virgin Mary, and His brethren-all together about 120 souls returned from the Mount of Olives to Jerusalem. Entering into the house where they gathered, they went into the upper room, and there they persevered in prayer and supplication, awaiting the coming of the Holy Spirit, as their Divine Teacher had promised them. In the meanwhile, they chose Matthias, who was elected to take the place of Judas among the Apostles. Thus, on this day, the seventh Sunday of Pascha, the tenth day after the Ascension and the fiftieth day after Pascha, at the third hour of the day from the rising of the sun, there suddenly came a sound from Heaven, as when a mighty wind blows, and it filled the whole house where the Apostles and the rest with them were gathered. Immediately after the sound, there appeared tongues of fire that divided and rested upon the head of each one. Filled with the Spirit, all those present began speaking not in their native tongue, but in other tongues and dialects, as the Holy Spirit instructed them. The multitudes that had come together from various places for the feast, most of whom were Jews by race and religion, were called Parthians, Medes, Elamites, and so forth, according to the places where they dwelt. Though they spoke many different tongues, they were present in Jerusalem by divine dispensation. When they heard that sound that came down from Heaven to the place where the disciples of Christ were gathered, all ran together to learn what had taken place. But they were confounded when they came and heard the Apostles speaking in their own tongues. Marveling at this, they said one to another, "Behold, are not all these which speak Galileans? And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born?" But others, because of their foolishness and excess of evil, mocked the wonder and said that the Apostles were drunken. Then Peter stood up with the eleven, and raising his voice, spoke to all the people, proving that that which had taken place was not drunkenness, but the fulfillment of God's promise that had been spoken by the Prophet Joel: "And it shall come to pass in the last days, that I shall pour out of My Spirit upon all flesh, and your sons and daughters shall prophesy" (Joel 2:28), and he preached Jesus of Nazareth unto them, proving in many ways that He is Christ the Lord, Whom the Jews crucified but God raised from the dead. On hearing Peter's teaching, many were smitten with compunction and received the word. Thus, they were baptized, and on that day about three thousand souls were added to the Faith of Christ. Such, therefore, are the reasons for today's feast: the coming of the All-holy Spirit into the world, the completion of the Lord Jesus Christ's promise, and the fulfillment of the hope of the sacred disciples, which we celebrate today. This is the final feast of the great mystery and dispensation of God's incarnation. On this last, and great, and saving day of Pentecost, the Apostles of the Saviour, who were unlearned fishermen, made wise now of a sudden by the Holy Spirit, clearly and with divine authority spoke the heavenly doctrines. They became heralds of the truth and teachers of the whole world. On this day they were ordained and began their apostleship, of which the salvation of those three thousand souls in one day was the comely and marvelous first fruit. 4

ΚΥΡΙΑΚΗ ΤΗΣ ΠΕΝΤΗΚΟΣΤΗΣ 3 ΙΟΥΝΙΟΥ Μετά την ανάλυψι του Σωτήρος στους ουρανούς, οι ένδοξοι Απόστολοι και λοιποί μαθηταί του, καθώς και οι θεοφιλείς γυναίκες που από την αρχή τον είχαν ακολουθήσει, η Παναγία Παρθένος Μαρία η Μητέρα του και οι αδελφοί του, όλοι μαζί ψυχές ίσαμε 120, γύρισαν από το όρος των Ελαιών στην Ιερουσαλήμ και, μπαίνοντας στο σπίτι όπου έμεναν, ανέβηκαν στο υπερώο, δηλαδή τον απάνω όροφό του και εκεί, προσκαρτερώντας με προσευχή και δέησι, περίμεναν την επιστροφή του Αγίου Πνεύματος, σύμφωνα με του θείου διδασκάλου την υπόσχεση. Εκεί στο μεταξύ, εξέλεξαν και τον Ματθία και τον συναρίθμησαν με τους ένδεκα Αποστόλους. Κατά δε τη σημερινή Κυριακή, δεκάτη μεν ημέρα μετά την Ανάληψι, πεντηκοστή από το Πάσχα, ιγ τότε του Μαϊου, περί την Τρίτη ώρα της ημέρες από την ανατολή του ηλίου, ξαφνικά έγινε τέτοιος ήχος απο τον ουρανό κατερχόμενος, όπως όταν πνέη δυνατός άνεμος, και γέμισε όλο το σπίτι όπου καθόνταν οι Απόστολοι με τους λοιπούς. Ευθύς μετλα τον ήχο, φάνηκαν γλώσσες πύρινες, που διαμερίσθηκαν και κάθησαν πάνω στον καθένα. Και όλοι οι εκεί έγιναν πνευματέμφοροι και άρχισαν να λένε, όχι στη μητρική τους γλώσσα, αλλά σε άλλες γλώσσες και διαλέκτους, όπως και ο, τι τους υπαγόρευε το Πνεύμα το Άγιο. Τότε τα πλήθη που είχαν συρρεύσει για την εορτή από διαφόρους τόπους, Πάρθοι και Μήδοι και Ελαμίται, κλπ., Ιουδαίοι μεν όλοι το γένος και τη θρισκεία, έτσι δε ονομαζόμενοι από τον τόπο όπου, διεσκορπισμένοι από πολύν καιρό, είχαν γεννηθή και ανατραφή ο καθένας, αυτοί, λέγω, οι τόσων διαλέκτων ετερόγλωσσοι Ιουδαίοι που κατά θεία οικονομία βρέθηκαν τότε στην Ιερουσαλήμ ακούοντας εκείνο τον ήχο να κατεβαίνη από τον ουρανό εκεί που ήσαν οι Μαθηταί του Χρίστου, έτρεξαν όλοι για να μάθουν τι άραγε είχε συμβή. Αλλά έμειναν εκστατικοί όταν ήλθαν και άκουσε ο καθένας τους Αποστόλους να μιλούν τη μητρική του διάλεκτο. Και θαυμάζοντας έλεγαν, «Μα δεν είναι όλοι αυτοί που μιλούν έτσι Γαλιλαίοι; Και πως ακούμε ο καθένας να μας μιλούν στο διάλεκτο του τόπου μας;». Άλλοι δε από τη πολλή τους μωρία και κακία, ίσως δε πάλι οι τυφλοί Γραμματείς και Φαρισαίοι, χλευάζοντας το θαύμα, έλεγαν τους Αποστόλους μεθυσμένους. Τότε στάθηκε ο Πέτρος με τους άλλους ένδεκα Μαθητάς και υψώνοντας τη φωνή δημηγόρησε ενώπιον όλων αποδεικτικά, λέγωντας ότι το γεγονός εκείνο δεν ήταν αποτέλεσμα μέθης, αλλά ήταν η εκπλήρωσις της υποσχέσεως του Θεού, που δόθηκε με τον Προφήτη Ιωήλ: «Και έσται εν ταις εσχάταις ημέραις, εκχέω από του Πνέυματός μου επί πάσαν σάρκα και προφητεύσουσιν οι υιοί υμών και αι θυγατέρες υμών...» (γ 1). Κατόπιν κηρύττει τον Ναζωραίο Ιησού και με πολλά αποδείχνει ότι αυτός είναι ο Κύριος, ο Χριστός, που οι μεν Ιουδαίοι σταύρωσαν, ο δε Θεός τον ήγειρε εκ νεκρών. Μετά απ αυτό, πολλοί κατανύχθηκαν και έχοντας αποδεχθή τον λόγο βαπτίσθηκαν και προστέθηκαν την ημέρα εκείνη στην πίστι του Χριστού ψυχές έως τρείς χιλιάδες. Ιδού όλο το θέμα της παρούσης εορτής. Την έλευσι δηλαδή του Παναγίου Πνεύματος στον κόσμο, την πραγματοποίησι της υποσχέσεως του Ιησού Χριστού και την εκπλήρωσι της ελπίδος των ιερών του Μαθητών εορτάζουμε σήμερα. Αυτή είναι η μεθέορτος και τελευταία εορτή του μεγάλου μυστηρίου της ενσάρκου οικονομίας του Θεού. Κατ αυτή την εσχάτη και μεγάλη και σωτήριο ημέρα της Πεντηκοστής, οι Απόστολοι του Σωτήρος, οι πρώην αγράμματοι και ακατάρτιστοι ψαράδες, έχοντας γίνει σοφοί κατά Θεόν μονομιάς από το Άγιο Πνεύμα, θεολόγησαν σαφώς τα ουράνια δόγματα και έγιναν οι κήρυκες της αληθείας και όλου του κόσμου οι διδάσκαλοι. Αυτή την ημέρα άρχισαν την αποστολή τους, της οποίας ο ωραίος και θαυμάσιος πρώτος καρπός υπήρξε η αυθήμερον σωτηρία τρισχιλίων ψηχών. 5

A GREAT BIG THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO HELPED OUT AT FOLKLORE FESTIVAL 2012!!! 6

Remarks of His All-Holiness on receiving The Franklin D. Roosevelt Freedom of Worship Medal Middelburg Netherlands, May 12, 2012 To worship freely is to breathe. In the fourth century, our venerable predecessor on the Throne of Constantinople, St. Gregory the Theologian, identified the capacity to remember God in prayer with the ability to breathe. Your Majesty, Esteemed Mrs. Anna Eleanor Roosevelt, Honorable board members of the Roosevelt Foundation, Beloved fellow laureates, Distinguished brothers and sisters, It is a profound privilege and sincere delight to stand beside other esteemed recipients of the Franklin D. Roosevelt Freedom Awards in order to accept the Freedom of Worship Medal. Three dimensions of our life and ministry have inspired us over the years to pursue with sacred passion the goal of religious freedom. The first dimension is the experience and expression of the Orthodox Christian faith and spirituality under difficult conditions on our native island of Imvros, where so many of our properties were unfairly confiscated over the last century, and, later, in the historical Theological School of Halki in Turkey, which was forcibly closed forty years ago. Over the last two decades, we have consistently albeit humbly and respectfully defended the fundamental rights of our Church to train its leaders and educate its clergy in order to maintain the spiritual legacy of the Church of Constantinople for over seventeen centuries. Our childhood reminiscences of discussions in our parents village coffee shop and our memorable formation through worship and study in our alma mater on the mountaintop of the quaint island of Halki, instilled in us the desire and advocacy for religious tolerance and freedom. This is much more than simply a theory or ideology; it is a conviction and a way of life, learned through conversation and deliberation as a small minority in a predominantly Muslim nation. And we know that such an exchange can bear fruit precisely because we have lived the results of good will and moral integrity, which can sometimes silently accomplish far more than political pressure or legal coercion. The second dimension that shaped our ministry with regard to freedom of worship is the mission of the Ecumenical Patriarchate through the centuries. Søren Kierkegaard once said: The most tremendous thing granted to the human being is choice, freedom. Indeed, authentic humanity is only realized through the free act of relationship with others. Freedom is a natural and inherent trait; however, it is also a divine gift and an ongoing task acquired through much effort and dialogue. Freedom is never solitary but always social. As we stated after the tragedy of September 11 on the site of ground zero in New York City: On this planet created by God for us all, there is room for us all. The Ecumenical Patriarchate has historically assumed a pioneering role in establishing and encouraging theological dialogues with other Christian confessions and religious deliberations with other faith communities. We consider it true to the Orthodox tradition despite the fact that we often face severe criticism and slander diligently and deliberately to avoid any form of propaganda or proselytism. What we seek at all times is honest encounter and humble engagement with every human being as our neighbor. After all, the identity of our Church as ecumenical implies an opening of windows to other churches and religions. Surely this is an essential feature of relating free worship to breathing. Finally, the third dimension that has guided our tenure is the appreciation of the beauty of God s creation. This is why we have perceived and proclaimed the intimate connection between the natural environment and the freedom of worship; for the heavens declare the glory of God. (LXX Psalms 18.1) Our inter-relationship as human beings not only embraces all our fellow humans but also extends to the entire created order. Humankind and the natural world comprise a seamless garment, which we can perceive when we open the eyes of our heart to the beauty of the world as created by God, who saw everything that He had made and, behold, it was very good (Genesis 1.31), altogether beautiful. There is a cosmic aspect to freedom of worship; in the seventh century, St. Maximus the Confessor spoke of cosmic liturgy. We have persistently emphasized that the roots of the so-called ecological crisis are not primarily economic or technological, but spiritual and ethical. The crisis lies not so much in the environment itself, but in our awareness and treatment of our planet s resources. Therefore, there is a direct link between the way we relate to the creation and the way we worship God. The world is nothing less than a gift of God and a sacrament of divine presence. Dear friends, none of us has the right to withhold the fundamental birthright and innate prerogative of every human being to worship freely. To stifle religious freedom is to deny human life. For, to worship freely is to breathe. May God bless you all. 7
