Welcome to Saint Nicholas on this Sunday, February 11, 2018 Today we commemorate: Judgment Sunday (Meatfare Sunday) Blaise the Holy Martyr of Sebastia Theodora the Empress Finding of the relics of Zachariah the Prophet, Father of the Holy Forerunner EPISTLE READING St. Paul's First Letter to the Corinthians 8:8-13; 9:1-2 Prokeimenon. Mode 4. Psalm 146.5;134.3 Great is our Lord, and great is his power. Verse: Praise the Lord, for the Lord is good. The reading is from St. Paul's First Letter to the Corinthians 8:8-13; 9:1-2 Brethren, food will not commend us to God. We are no worse off if we do not eat, and no better off if we do. Only take care lest this liberty of yours somehow become a stumbling block to the weak. For if any one sees you, a man of knowledge, at table in an idol's temple, might he not be encouraged, if his conscience is weak, to eat food offered to idols? And so by your knowledge this weak man is destroyed, the brother for whom Christ died. Thus, sinning against your brethren and wounding their conscience when it is weak, you sin against Christ. Therefore, if food is a cause of my brother's falling, I will never eat meat, lest I cause my brother to fall. Am I not free? Am I not an apostle? Have I not seen Jesus our Lord? Are not you my workmanship in the Lord? If to others I am not an apostle, at least I am to you; for you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord.

Πρὸς Κορινθίους α' 8:8-13, 9:1-2 Προκείμενον. Ήχος δ'. ΨΑΛΜΟΙ 146.5;134.3 Μέγας ὁ Κύριος ἡμῶν, καὶ μεγάλη ἡ ἰσχὺς ἀὐτοῦ. Στίχ. Αἰνεῖτε τὸν Κύριον, ὅτι ἀγαθός. Πρὸς Κορινθίους α' 8:8-13, 9:1-2 τὸ ἀνάγνωσμα είναι απο Ἀδελφοί, βρῶμα ἡμᾶς οὐ παρίστησιν τῷ θεῷ οὔτε γὰρ ἐὰν φάγωμεν περισσεύομεν, οὔτε ἐὰν μὴ φάγωμεν ὑστερούμεθα. Βλέπετε δὲ μήπως ἡ ἐξουσία ὑμῶν αὕτη πρόσκομμα γένηται τοῖς ἀσθενοῦσιν. Ἐὰν γάρ τις ἴδῃ σε τὸν ἔχοντα γνῶσιν ἐν εἰδωλείῳ κατακείμενον, οὐχὶ ἡ συνείδησις αὐτοῦ ἀσθενοῦς ὄντος οἰκοδομηθήσεται εἰς τὸ τὰ εἰδωλόθυτα ἐσθίειν; Καὶ ἀπολεῖται ὁ ἀσθενῶν ἀδελφὸς ἐπὶ τῇ σῇ γνώσει, διʼ ὃν Χριστὸς ἀπέθανεν; Οὕτως δὲ ἁμαρτάνοντες εἰς τοὺς ἀδελφούς, καὶ τύπτοντες αὐτῶν τὴν συνείδησιν ἀσθενοῦσαν, εἰς Χριστὸν ἁμαρτάνετε. Διόπερ εἰ βρῶμα σκανδαλίζει τὸν ἀδελφόν μου, οὐ μὴ φάγω κρέα εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα, ἵνα μὴ τὸν ἀδελφόν μου σκανδαλίσω. Οὐκ εἰμὶ ἀπόστολος; Οὐκ εἰμὶ ἐλεύθερος; Οὐχὶ Ἰησοῦν Χριστὸν τὸν κύριον ἡμῶν ἑώρακα; Οὐ τὸ ἔργον μου ὑμεῖς ἐστε ἐν κυρίῳ; Εἰ ἄλλοις οὐκ εἰμὶ ἀπόστολος, ἀλλά γε ὑμῖν εἰμι ἡ γὰρ σφραγὶς τῆς ἐμῆς ἀποστολῆς ὑμεῖς ἐστε ἐν κυρίῳ.

GOSPEL READING The Gospel According to Matthew 25:31-46 The Lord said, "When the Son of man comes in his glory and all the holy angels with him, then he will sit on his glorious throne. Before him will be gathered all the nations, and he will separate them one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats, and he will place the sheep at his right hand, but the goats at the left. Then the king will say to those at his right hand, 'Come, O blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.' Then the righteous will answer him, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? And when did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you? And when did we see you sick or in prison and visit you?' And the King will answer them, 'Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brethren, you did it to me.' Then he will say to those at his left hand, 'Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels; for I was hungry and you gave me no food, I was thirsty and you gave me no drink, I was a stranger and you did not welcome me, naked and you did not clothe me, sick and in prison and you did not visit me.' Then they also will answer, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to you?' Then he will answer them, 'Truly, I say to you, as you did it not to one of the least of these, you did it not to me.' And they will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life."

Ἐκ τοῦ Κατὰ Ματθαῖον 25:31-46 Εὐαγγελίου τὸ Ἀνάγνωσμα Εἶπεν ὁ Κύριος Ὅταν δὲ ἔλθῃ ὁ υἱὸς τοῦ ἀνθρώπου ἐν τῇ δόξῃ αὐτοῦ καὶ πάντες οἱ ἅγιοι ἄγγελοι μετ αὐτοῦ, τότε καθίσει ἐπὶ θρόνου δόξης αὐτοῦ, καὶ συναχθήσεται ἔμπροσθεν αὐτοῦ πάντα τὰ ἔθνη, καὶ ἀφοριεῖ αὐτοὺς ἀπ ἀλλήλων ὥσπερ ὁ ποιμὴν ἀφορίζει τὰ πρόβατα ἀπὸ τῶν ἐρίφων, καὶ στήσει τὰ μὲν πρόβατα ἐκ δεξιῶν αὐτοῦ, τὰ δὲ ἐρίφια ἐξ εὐωνύμων. τότε ἐρεῖ ὁ βασιλεὺς τοῖς ἐκ δεξιῶν αὐτοῦ δεῦτε οἱ εὐλογημένοι τοῦ πατρός μου, κληρονομήσατε τὴν ἡτοιμασμένην ὑμῖν βασιλείαν ἀπὸ καταβολῆς κόσμου. ἐπείνασα γάρ, καὶ ἐδώκατέ μοι φαγεῖν, ἐδίψησα, καὶ ἐποτίσατέ με, ξένος ἤμην, καὶ συνηγάγετέ με, γυμνός, καὶ περιεβάλετέ με, ἠσθένησα, καὶ ἐπεσκέψασθέ με, ἐν φυλακῇ ἤμην, καὶ ἤλθετε πρός με. τότε ἀποκριθήσονται αὐτῷ οἱ δίκαιοι λέγοντες κύριε, πότε σε εἴδομεν πεινῶντα καὶ ἐθρέψαμεν, ἢ διψῶντα καὶ ἐποτίσαμεν; πότε δέ σε εἴδομεν ξένον καὶ συνηγάγομεν, ἢ γυμνὸν καὶ περιεβάλομεν; πότε δέ σε εἴδομεν ἀσθενῆ ἢ ἐν φυλακῇ, καὶ ἤλθομεν πρός σε; καὶ ἀποκριθεὶς ὁ βασιλεὺς ἐρεῖ αὐτοῖς ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν, ἐφ ὅσον ἐποιήσατε ἑνὶ τούτων τῶν ἀδελφῶν μου τῶν ἐλαχίστων, ἐμοὶ ἐποιήσατε. τότε ἐρεῖ καὶ τοῖς ἐξ εὐωνύμων πορεύεσθε ἀπ ἐμοῦ οἱ κατηραμένοι εἰς τὸ πῦρ τὸ αἰώνιον τὸ ἡτοιμασμένον τῷ διαβόλῳ καὶ τοῖς ἀγγέλοις αὐτοῦ. ἐπείνασα γάρ, καὶ οὐκ ἐδώκατέ μοι φαγεῖν, ἐδίψησα, καὶ οὐκ ἐποτίσατέ με, ξένος ἤμην, καὶ οὐ συνηγάγετέ με, γυμνός, καὶ οὐ περιεβάλετέ με, ἀσθενὴς καὶ ἐν φυλακῇ, καὶ οὐκ ἐπεσκέψασθέ με. τότε ἀποκριθήσονται αὐτῷ καὶ αὐτοὶ λέγοντες κύριε, πότε σε εἴδομεν πεινῶντα ἢ διψῶντα ἢ ξένον ἢ γυμνὸν ἢ ἀσθενῆ ἢ ἐν φυλακῇ, καὶ οὐ διηκονήσαμέν σοι; τότε ἀποκριθήσεται αὐτοῖς λέγων ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν, ἐφ ὅσον οὐκ ἐποιήσατε ἑνὶ τούτων τῶν ἐλαχίστων, οὐδὲ ἐμοὶ ἐποιήσατε. καὶ ἀπελεύσονται οὗτοι εἰς κόλασιν αἰώνιον, οἱ δὲ δίκαιοι εἰς ζωὴν αἰώνιον.

Demetrion-Hodges Family is in crisis mode David Hodges has been diagnosed with an inoperable form of pancreatic cancer and has been given days to live. David and Christine have been stewards of this church for so many years. It would be awesome to outreach to the community to support them through forms of a meal train, daily visits to talk and pray together, calls or emails to let them know they are not forgotten. This is such an emotional and stressful time for their family and I believe that it would so up lifting to let them know that St Nicholas parishioners care and will support them in any way they can. Beading Lessons Inna Hayek is providing art lessons with beading for children right after church every Sunday. Church Bookmobile St. Nicholas Bookmobile is adding many new items for sale.

What God Has Done In My Life From 50 cents to $150. By: Rosemary Georgiou In honor of Stewardship Month, I would like to share this story of the power of giving and God s gracious love for us. It happened 35 years ago. Where do I begin? There s so many events rushing through my head. I guess I ll start with the one when I was working for a dentist. He was an elderly man, and I was hired to work the front desk, as receptionist in his office. When he found out that I had been a dental assistant, my job description changed. I would occasionally when needed assist the other dentist when he was there. One day it was almost closing time and a lady came in. She was with some church organization and she was selling some hair clips and pins. She was selling them for only $5.00 to $8.00 in order to raise money for her church. I thought the clips and pins were beautiful and I had wished that I had the money to be able to buy one. But I didn t have any money. I told her how I wished I could buy one, but I didn t have money. She asked if I could help out with any small donation, it would be really appreciated. I reached for my purse and as I m thinking how much I can give all I have is 50cents. I feel so embarrassed as I hand her the 50 cents and tell her that, that s all I can give. She graciously takes the money and says to me God Bless You. I still felt so bad that that was all I was able to give. After we closed the office on my way home, I thought it would be great if my friend would pay me the $10.00 which I had loaned her. But I knew I probably never see that money again, since she was also a single mom and we both lived from pay check to pay check. You see I had an eight-year-old son, whom I never received any child support for. Not that I hadn t tried, but what the court says and what actually happens are two different things. Anyway, I had just been paid and after paying my rent and all my bills I didn t have any money lift. It would be another week before I would receive another pay check. But as I arrived home I knew that somehow, I d make it, we always did. I put my things down, kissed my son and went to get the mail. As I looked through my mail I found a Christmas card from some dear friends of mine. They were in San Francisco for the holidays. In the card was a $50.00 bill. They wrote a few hello words and hoping that we were fine, but never mentioning the money. I had $50.00 wow! Thank you, Lord! The next day was Friday and after work my son and I went down my parent s house. They were going to a church festival, so we went along with them. My father had bought raffle tickets for all the grand kids. We arrived at the festival and my brother in-law s band was playing. Shortly after, they started the raffle. The first prize which they started with was for $100.00. As they called out the number, then the name I could hardly contain myself. It was my son s name! Within two days I had $150.00, for food, for the two of us, for one week. So much more than we needed! Thank you, Lord! I guess I felt like the Lord had bless me, because of the 50 cents I gave. Maybe it was nothing, maybe it was not much, but because God sees our hearts, He knew I gave with my heart.

STEWARDSHIP CORNER Stewardship 2018 Orthodox Perspective on Stewardship For unto whomsoever much is given, of him shall much be required Luke 12:48 Our worship in the Orthodox Divine Services involves the entire being: our minds, bodies and souls. Our mind praises God. Our body is keenly active during our worship services with our five senses well engaged. Our soul is connected with the Lord as we present ourselves before Him. In response to the love of the Lord for us, as Orthodox Christian Stewards we offer ourselves wholly to Him just as we do during the Divine Service. Our primary purpose as Orthodox Christians is to grow in Christ to the best of our ability. We are to embrace the way of the Lord as best we can. STEWARDS: Pledging stewards are those who have submitted a pledge card or otherwise pledged a financial commitment. Please make your pledge today, so you can be added to the Stewardship roster.

Sunday School Bake Sale Feb. 11 th in the Church Hall Cookies, banana bread, muffins, cupcakes, lemon squares, brownies. (Sign-ups are still available) The Sunday school children will be the hosts for the first bake sale of the year.

AHEPA FAMILY CHAPTER #536 OF TEMECULA VALLEY, CA I am very proud to announce the beginning of our own Scholarship Program. Honoring a member and also past Vice President of our Organization, it will be Dedicated to his Memory. THE CHRISTOFOROS TSIBOUKAS SCHOLARSHIP FOUNDATION Chris was a supporter of education and sports. He coached his children and their teammates for the soccer games. A man of loving and caring nature for everyone. Supporting and always hard working in every event. We loved him, and we will miss him forever. He will always be in our hearts. We are going to work in different venues to raise funds. We welcome anyone who can be a part of our committee or support our project with any ideas. Thank you, The scholarship committee, Evan Vassilakis, Charles Fields, Leanta Stavros, Michael Rymer, Chris Ingram.

Dear Beloved Brothers in Christ, A Blessed beginning of the Triodion! I am pleased to forward this flyer to you and on behalf of the Orthodox Cathedral Deans, invite you and your God-protected flock to participate in the Sunday of Orthodoxy Observance that I and my parish are honored to host on Sunday, February 25. As you can see from the flyer, we are also inviting you to a special reception for clergy before the service. It would be wonderful if as many priests as possible can participate in this annual event, bringing our communities together to pray and witness to the faith together on this important feast day of the Church. Later this year, it is my hope that we can re-establish the Orthodox Clergy Association for our area (Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, Ventura and San Bernardino Counties) as it was many years ago. The importance of such an association is obvious and in my opinion, obviously lacking. So, let s all pray and think about it. In the meantime, I welcome you to Saint Steven s Cathedral this year for the Sunday of Orthodoxy Vespers.
