2019 LENTEN GUIDE WEB.Pub
LENTEN GUIDE 2019 Great Lent begins on March 11 and is followed by Holy Week, leading us to Pascha, Easter Sunday, April 28, 2019. We will greet the holy season of Great Lent with joy and enthusiasm and with the hope that we will be found worthy of its beauty and power. It is the season of repentance, a time to slow down and once again rediscover the meaning of our life in Christ. It is the time set aside each year for a renewal of our soul in the hope which has been given to us in Christ. This simple Lenten Guide highlights some of the Lenten services and activities taking place this year. Please try to take advantage of the unique opportunity of this holy season for the purpose of spiritual cleansing and healing. May God help us all to do so! Each Sunday during Great Lent, Matins is celebrated at 9:00 a.m. and the Divine Liturgy at 10:00 a.m. as usual. However, during the five Sundays in Great Lent, the Liturgy of Saint Basil is celebrated, instead of the usual Liturgy of Saint John Chrysostom. The Liturgy of Saint Basil contains some of the most beautiful prayers of the Church. The Sacrament of Holy Confession The Sacrament of Penance—Confession is our opportunity for reconciliation with God and man in the Church. There are three main elements to the act of formal penance: Sincere sorrow for sins committed; an open and heartfelt confession of sins; and the prayer of absolution given by God through the priest and through which the forgiveness of God is bestowed upon the repentant sinner. -

Liturgical Functions of Late Byzantine Art: an Analysis of the Thessaloniki Epitaphios
Issue 5 2016 Funding for Vexillum provided by The Medieval Studies Program at Yale University Issue 5 Available online at http://vexillumjournal.org/ Liturgical Functions of Late Byzantine Art: An Analysis of the Thessaloniki Epitaphios JUDITH SHANIKA PELPOLA STANFORD UNIVERSITY The Thessaloniki Epitaphios, a late Byzantine embroidered textile, is an important piece to consider in the study of Byzantine art and its role in liturgy. In this paper, I undertake a stylistic and formalistic analysis of the inscriptions, depiction of the humanity of Christ, and treatment of time in the Thessaloniki Epitaphios to determine if the Epitaphios had liturgical rather than simply symbolic functions, thus helping contextualize Byzantine art within the Western canon. Analyzing the potential for the liturgical function of this piece additionally sheds light onto how Byzantine art itself should be classified with regards to the Western canon. Introduction The role of late Byzantine pieces in liturgical rites has been subject to a longstanding debate in the field, with one of the most recent subjects of this discussion being the Thessaloniki Epitaphios (see Figure 1). A silk on linen textile, the Epitaphios originates from Thessaloniki, Greece, circa 1300.1 Located on a trade route that connected Constantinople and Durazzo on the Adriatic, Thessaloniki was a key commercial port and site for religious pilgrimage in late Byzantium.2 Several stylistic features, in particular the expressiveness of the figures, suggest the Epitaphios was produced during the late Byzantine Palaiologan Dynasty (1259-1453), under which Thessaloniki reached its cultural height, and when there was a significant emphasis in the culture on liturgical rites.3 Thus, artworks created during the Palaiologan Dynasty invites scrutiny with respect to their roles as active participants in liturgical rites. -
August 18, 2019 Wishing All of You Who Were Born in ﺍألﺏ مﺎيكل شﺎهﻴن Dean/Pastor Father Michael G
The Dormition of our Most Holy Lady “This is none other than the House of God. the Theotokos and Ever Virgin Mary And this is the Gate of Heaven” Genesis 28:17 Concerning the Dormition of the Theotokos, this is what the Church has received from ancient times from the tradi- tion of the Fathers. When the time drew nigh that our Sav- ior was well-pleased to take His Mother to Himself, He declared unto her through an Angel that three days hence, He would translate her from this temporal life to eternity and bliss. On hearing this, she went up with haste to the Mount of Olives, where she prayed continuously. Giving thanks to God, she returned to her house and prepared whatever was necessary for her burial. While these things were taking place, clouds caught up the Apostles from the ends of the earth, where each one happened to be preach- ing, and brought them at once to the house of the Mother of God, who informed them of the cause of their sudden gathering. As a mother, she consoled them in their affliction as was meet, and then raised her hands to Heaven and prayed for the peace of the world. She blessed the Apostles, and, reclining upon her bed with seemliness, gave up her all-holy spirit into the hands of her Son and God. With reverence and many lights, and chanting burial hymns, the Apostles took up that God-receiving body and brought it to the sepulchre, while the Angels from Heaven chanted with them, and sent forth her who is higher than the Cherubim. -

The Byzantine Euchologion
The Byzantine Euchologion by George N. Filias - rev. Theodoros J. Koumarianos University of Athens The Euchologion is a codex that contains a collection of prayers. The composite word is made from the Greek words εὐχή (prayer) and λόγιον (collection). It is the Prayer Book used bishops, priests and deacons for all kinds of Ἀκολουθίαι in the Byzantine Rite, such as the Holy Mysteries, the Offices and other Prayers. In this article Filias first discusses the content of the Euchologion followed by its origins, evolution and history. He places the manuscript tradition into groups according to textual content. Focus is then given to the liturgical function of the Euchologion and related codex structures with examples of problems concerning nomenclature. The article ends with an outline of scholarly research in particular most recent studies along with a useful appendix exhibiting the contents of a Euchologion. The text of each Prayer in the Euchologion almost always contains references to scriptural passages and biblical events, as well as praises and thanksgiving to God for His benefactions, and finally petitions to God. Every single Prayer is constructed in a dialogical form between God and man. Prayers are usually written down in small groups, each group constituting a different Service, such as the Holy Liturgy, the rite of Baptism, Vespers, Matins, the Great Blessing of Waters on Theophany, the rite of Matrimony, and the Burial Service. A Euchologion also includes rubrics or liturgical instructions for the proper performance of Services, independent from the rest of its contents. During the first five centuries there was freedom in the recitation of Prayers, and writing them down for reciting was unnecessary. -
