  • Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018
    Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018 Conforming to General Convention 2018 1 Preface Christians have since ancient times honored men and women whose lives represent heroic commitment to Christ and who have borne witness to their faith even at the cost of their lives. Such witnesses, by the grace of God, live in every age. The criteria used in the selection of those to be commemorated in the Episcopal Church are set out below and represent a growing consensus among provinces of the Anglican Communion also engaged in enriching their calendars. What we celebrate in the lives of the saints is the presence of Christ expressing itself in and through particular lives lived in the midst of specific historical circumstances. In the saints we are not dealing primarily with absolutes of perfection but human lives, in all their diversity, open to the motions of the Holy Spirit. Many a holy life, when carefully examined, will reveal flaws or the bias of a particular moment in history or ecclesial perspective. It should encourage us to realize that the saints, like us, are first and foremost redeemed sinners in whom the risen Christ’s words to St. Paul come to fulfillment, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” The “lesser feasts” provide opportunities for optional observance. They are not intended to replace the fundamental celebration of Sunday and major Holy Days. As the Standing Liturgical Commission and the General Convention add or delete names from the calendar, successive editions of this volume will be published, each edition bearing in the title the date of the General Convention to which it is a response.

  • Reviews the Hymnal of the Armenian Church
    28=; REVIEWS THE HYMNAL OF THE ARMENIAN CHURCH. Das armenischeHymnarium: Studien zu seiner geschichtlichenEntwicklung. Von NERSES TER-MIKAELIAN, Archimandrit von Edschmiatsin. (Leipzig, J. C. Hinrichs'sche Buchhandlung, 1905. in-8.) Downloaded from THIS little book of no pages is the first critical study of the Hymnal of the Armenian Church, of which the editio princeps was printed at Amsterdam by Oscan in the year 1664. Germans might perhaps find fault with the author's style, but no Englishman will do so. It must be remembered that it is to him an acquired tongue, and he is at least clear http://jts.oxfordjournals.org/ and concise. He shews that the Hymnal was finally fixed in its present form in the second half of the fourteenth century, when the hymns written by the great Cilician prelates—Nerses the Graceful, Nerses of Lambron in the twelfth century, Gregory of Skevrha and Vardan Var- dapet in the thirteenth—were included. These additions constitute about a fourth of the existing book, and were accepted by the churches of Eastern Armenia in that age; but with the proviso that no more additions were allowable, especially those which the latinizing clergy at UB Giessen on May 14, 2015 of the decadent kingdom of Cilicia were eager to make. Not only were some forty new canons added in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, but existing hymns were greatly expanded. The collection, closed about 1350, includes 1,166 hymns, enumerated by Ter-Mikaelian under 162 heads, as canons, suites, and detached hymns. A canon is defined as the whole of the hymns to be sung on any one dominical feast or saint's day : a suite as a collection of hymns divided according to the eight tones or fundamental melodies; not appropriated as a whole to any special feast, but sung section by section on successive days of the year.

  • RANDOM THOUGHTS DIFERENTES PENSAMIENTOS from Father Bill Promesso
    RANDOM THOUGHTS DIFERENTES PENSAMIENTOS from Father Bill Promesso About Pope Francis: Life, Spirituality & Mission Set aside an hour on Wednesday, July 18 at 7PM for a special presentation on Pope Francis by Zaid Chabaan. Zaid is a priesthood candidate for the Archdiocese and studies at Sacred Heart Major Seminary. Zaid is currently serving a pastoral year at Divine Child Parish in Dearborn. We are at $75,800 from 331 families, He has developed this presentation and I invited him to that is 88% of our goal of $85,316. share it with us as an element of adult formation. Still needed $9,516 Christmas in the Park I’m very excited by our July community event. The Market Center Park (Eureka & Trenton Rd) is an excellent venue for a pig roast and an evening outdoor concert. I hope that many of you are planning to join us on Saturday, July 28 after 5:00 Mass. But I’m also praying that you’ll invite one or two unchurched family members or friends. This event is one of the “shallow entry points” of which I spoke a few weeks ago. Our work of evangelization might not begin with inviting someone to church on the weekend, but rather with encountering Catholics at less formal and intimidating gatherings. When we invite, then we are on the path to accompany someone on their spiritual journey. When they encounter our St Cyprian community, they are likely to want more! PPC The Parish Pastoral Council has two open seats for our 2018-19 meetings. We need one general member for the PPC and a new Downriver Vicariate Pastoral Council representative who also sits on our PPC.

  • Nisibis As the Background to the Life of Ephrem the Syrian
    Hugoye: Journal of Syriac Studies, Vol. 8, 179-235 © 2005 [2009] by Beth Mardutho: The Syriac Institute and Gorgias Press NISIBIS AS THE BACKGROUND TO THE LIFE OF EPHREM THE SYRIAN PAUL S. RUSSELL ST. JOSEPH OF ARIMATHEA ANGLICAN THEOLOGICAL COLLEGE ABSTRACT1 This paper is an attempt to collect together what is known about Nisibis before and during the life of Ephrem the Syrian (306-373). It is important to see him against the backdrop of the place that formed him rather than the place in which he spent the final years of his life, so it is to Nisibis that we should turn for insight into Ephrem’s basic thoughts and concerns. I hope that this information may stir readers to reflect on Ephrem as a child of his birthplace and to see him in a slightly different light than before. Even of Nisibis, which was clearly the central place in the eastern part of the Mesopotamian shelf, we have 1 I would like to thank the anonymous readers from Hugoye as well as Dr. Daniel Stoekl Ben Ezra of Hebrew University, Dr. David G. K. Taylor of Oxford University, Dr. James Russell of Harvard University, Adam Becker of New York University, Dr. Mark Dickens of Cambridge University, Dr. Edwin Yamauchi of Miami University of Ohio and Dr. Glen Bowersock of Princeton University for supplying me with information and suggestions that were helpful in filling in gaps and giving a clearer shape to this paper that had been electronically damaged as well as being incomplete.
