Memorial Saturdays in Great Lent Lenten Prayers for the Reposed -  Our Church Calendar provides many occasions when we are asked to face up to the fact of death, and at this During lent we have special memorial services (“Sorokousty” or “Forty-day prayers”) every time of year there are “Saturdays of the Souls”. We pray for the dead especially on Saturdays because it was on the week for our reposed loved ones. We invite all parishioners to give their memorial booklets Sabbath day (Saturday) that Christ lay dead in the tomb, “resting from all His works and trampling down death by death.” or a list of the names of their departed loved ones to Father for commemoration at these services. The requiem services will be held on March 11, 18 and 25 during the Liturgy. We Praying for the dead is an expression of love. We ask God to remember our departed loved ones because we love them. The relationship of love survives, and even transcends, death. There is an inner need to continue to also invite parishioners who can come for the services to offer the Kolachi (bread) or express our relationship with a loved one even after death, often even more so after a loved one has died since Kolyva (boiled wheat with honey) for one of these memorial services and make a donation physical communication is no longer possible. The Church encourages us to express our love for our departed to the Church in memory of their reposed loved ones. Thank you and may God Bless you. brethren through memorial services and prayers.

The Orthodox Church prays for the dead to express her faith that all who have fallen asleep in the Lord, Молитви Для Вірних – Prayers for our Faithful live in the Lord; their lives are ”hidden with Christ in God” (COL. 3.3). Whether on earth or in heaven, the Church is Mary Budzak Nadia Demkiw Lily Herman Nick Budzak one family, one body in Christ. Death changes the location but it cannot sever the bond of love. Paul Kodak Michael Kerelchuk Rose Kerelchuk Kay Kostyk Just as we pray for the dead, so we believe they continue to love us, remember us and pray for us now Elaine Maksymiuk Mary Maksuta Ann Michayluk Ernie Wasylciw that they are closer to God.

It is customary during Great Lent to offer special prayers for the reposed members of our families and our friends. If you wish that Father commemorate your departed In response to this ongoing problem, the First Ecumenical Council, convened at Nicaea in 325 A.D., took up loved ones during these services during the Liturgies and memorial services please give him your family the issue.

If the full moon happens to fall on a Sunday, vices) will be offered after the Liturgy of the Presanctified Gifts, and at the Memorial Divine Liturgies every Pascha is observed the following Sunday. The day taken to be the invariable date of the vernal equinox is Saturday during the Lent. March 21. Hence, the determination of the date of Pascha is governed by a process dependent on the vernal equinox and the phase of the moon. Another factor that figures prominently in determining the Що приносити з собою на Поминальне Богослуження. На це пит ання не мож на відповіст и date of Pascha is the date of the Jewish Passover. Originally, Passover was celebrated on the first full moon однозначно, оскільки кожна місцевість має свої традиції і ми просимо Вас відчуватись зучно і after the vernal equinox. Christians, therefore, celebrated Pascha according to the same calculation - that приносити з собою те, що Ви звикли приносити вдома.

As such, it does not take into account the thirteen-day difference between the Julian and Gregorian Calendars. Practically speaking, this means that Pascha may not be celebrated before April 3, Services During the Lenten Period which was March 21, the date of the vernal equinox, at the time of the First Ecumenical Council. In other words, a difference of thirteen days exists between the accepted date for the vernal equinox then and now.

In order to financially support our member organizations as well as various charities and individuals, Peter Powalinsky Clark Remenda Susan Senko Michael Sorochka we raise funds with the help of our TYC members and dedicated volunteers. One way that we fund- nd Alexandra Shewchuk Elsie Stefanuk Ernie Wasylciw Vera Webster raise is by staffing bingo at City Centre Bingo Hall (310 – 22 St W). Our membership is aging, and we have fewer and fewer members and volunteers to carry the workload.

We urgently need your help as volunteers so that we can continue this lucrative form of fundraising. Baptisms: We welcome - Вітаємо to our Cathedral family If we cannot continue, due to lack of staffing, then we will be forced to give up our bingo fundraising which will eliminate our available funds for distribution to the churches and cultural groups. Ethan Samotoi - parents Serhiy & Olha Samotoi Over the past 6 years alone TYC has contributed over a quarter of a million dollars ($246,900.00) to Arina Trokhymchuk- parents Oleksandr & Olena Trokhymchuk our member organizations and various local charities.

. . . . . From the Desk of the Cathedral Chair

In an effort to better inform our membership of parish council discussions it is our intention to have a short note in each

months newsletter highlighting some of the issues that the Parish Council dealt with at the monthly meeting.

This month two important items that a significant amount of time was spent on were a discussion on the requirements for our church in terms of preparing for the 100th anniversary celebrations in August and the long standing issue regarding the lack of dedicated bingo volunteers and the associated financial issues regarding the loss of bingo revenues.

In regards to the 100th anniversary celebration the parish council is looking at ensuring that our church and hall have an appearance that will make all of our members proud when we host our guests from around Canada and indeed the world. We are considering the possibility of replacing the flooring in the church and making the necessary improvements to the front of the hall so that our facilities look well maintained. A decision regarding these projects will likely be made in the New Year.

On a related note the parish council also discussed the lack of dedicated bingo volunteers and how long we can continue to run the church bingo and how much longer we can depend upon a significant yearly contribution from the TYC group. These scenarios are real and so your parish council is looking at what we will have to do once these very very important pieces of revenue no longer exist.

As always if you have any questions about these or other issues please contact myself or any member of the parish council.

Emergency services at 911 has advised us that there was another instance of a call made from Holy Trinity that was not an emergency. They suggested that the call was most likely made by a child or children.

We would ask that children be supervised when in the Church basement and that the following information be shared with your children:

 Prank calls may take the 9-1-1 call-taker away from a real emergency call.  Prank calls are a serious abuse of the system.  There may be a delay in responding to a REAL emergency & someone’s life may be at

stake

 Prank calls are traceable, and will be investigated.

Synaxsis of Archangel Michael November 21 In Hebrew, Michael means "who is like God?". Michael is mentioned three times in the Book of Daniel, once as a "great prince who stands up for the children of your people".

In the New Testament Michael leads God's armies against Satan's forces in the Book of Revelation, where during the war in heaven he defeats Satan. In the Epistle of Jude Michael is specifically referred to as an "archangel". In the 4th century, he was first seen as a healing angel, and then over time as a protector and the leader of the army of God against the forces of evil. By the 6th century, devotions to Archangel Michael were widespread both in the Eastern & Western Churches.

What is Stewardship? Pledging? Donating?

Over the past number of years, there has been much discussion on ‘how much should I donate or pledge to the Church?’ Or, what does it take, what is required to maintain the Church, the Priest, the Auditorium. Or even better, let the Bingos look after the budget.

My dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, the time is coming that we return to the teachings of our forefathers when the Church was established in Canada, in 1918. We must become responsible in maintaining our Ukrainian Orthodox Cathedral, and the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of Canada. Our forefathers did not canvass non Orthodox Christians for funds to maintain their Church budget. They looked after their own homes, farms, businesses and their beloved Church. In the following newsletters, there will be a number of articles concerning stewardship, and how we may start to approach this in our own lives.

Respectfully, Fr. Taras Makowsky

Tithes and Firstfruits (from an article by Fr. Dmitri Cozby) “Honor the Lord with your substance, and with the firstfruits of all your produce” (Proverbs 3:9). Our basic understanding as Orthodox Christians, derived from the Old Testament, is that everything comes from God. All that we have or hope to possess, beginning with life itself, is His gift. We acknowledge this fact in our spiritual life through prayer and fasting and through our struggle to follow His commandments. With regard to our material blessings, we confess that He is their true source by returning a portion to Him, to be used for His purposes in this world. These works include the maintenance of worship, the support of those called to His special service, and aid for the poor. By thus giving a portion of our wealth for His purposes, we sanctify the remainder. Through offering a part, we bring the whole of our lives into harmony with God’s will.

Likewise, one of the earliest witnesses to Holy Tradition, The Teaching of the Twelve Apostles (sometimes called The Didache), applies the firstfruits to the Church. “Every firstfruit of the produce of the wine-vat and of the threshing-floor, of cattle and flocks, you will take and give as the firstfruit to your prophets; for they are your chief priests . . . . if you prepare food, take and give the firstfruit according to the commandment. Likewise, when you open a jar of wine or oil, take and give the firstfruit to the prophets. Take also the firstfruit of money and clothing and every possession, as it may seem right to you, and give according to the commandment.” St Irenaeus, writing toward the end of the second century, notes that Christ Himself “gave directions to His disciples to offer the firstfruits of His own created things not as if He stood in need of them, but that they might be themselves neither unfruitful nor ungrateful.” St John Chrysostom contends that the tithe is more binding on us than on the Jews. In one of his (Continued)

What is Stewardship? Pledging? Donating?

Tithes and Firstfruits (con’t)

St John Chrysostom contends that the tithe is more binding on us than on the Jews. In one of his sermons, he notes that under the Old Testament tithing was the norm. Among Christians, however, it has become a cause for amazement; we exclaim in wonder, “Why, so-and-so tithes!” St John finds this a sad reflection on our piety and ends with the warning, “if it was a danger to neglect the tithe then, imagine how serious it must be now!” Copyright © January 1995 by Fr. Dmitri Cozby. Printed with permission. To read the whole article, http://stpeterorthodoxchurch.com/%20tithing/

A few reasons why we should give….. It’s an act of worship.

Whether you’re referencing the Old Testament or New Testament, giving to God with a pure heart is an act of worship. By giving a portion to God, you’re trusting in Him to use it to further His Kingdom. You’re also acknowledging that everything comes from Him and that He’ll continue to provide for you.

To further God’s Kingdom. How can we expect the Gospel to be spread if we don’t support ministries financially? We’re instructed in Matthew 28:19 to ”Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.“ The reality is that working in the ministry requires supplies and if we don’t give, who will? To Bless others!

The book of Acts tells us that Jesus said, “It is more blessed to give than to receive.”

We’re instructed in 2 Corinthians 8:7 to “Excel in everything – in faith, in speech, in knowledge, in complete earnestness and in your love for us – see that you also excel in this grace of giving.”

Christian Stewardship Is….(from St. Demetrios http://www.saintdemetriosrr.org/stewardship/)

…learning how to be a responsible and …our active commitment to use all our concerned caretaker of Christ’s Church; time , talent and treasure for the benefit of it is learning how to enjoy Church life humankind in grateful acknowledgment of Christ’s and be happy in Church work., for in Her redeeming love. dwells the fullness of the Spirit of God. …caring for the needs of others.

… what a person does after saying ―I …devotion and service to God and His believe…‖, as proof of that belief. Church as persons, as families, as

… offering one’s self to God as He offered diocese/metropolis, as national Church and as Himself to us. Church universal. from Williams & McKibben in Oriented Leadership

Holy Trinity Icon Windows : Teachers and Defenders of the Faith

St. llarion of the Kyiv Caves Metropol itan of Kyiv - November 3

There are a number of IIarions commemorated in November 3 One of them is the Venerable Ilarion ofthe Kyiv Caves, who is usually identified with the first Ukrainian Metropolitan Of Kyiv (all the previous ones since the Baptism of Rus' in 988 had been Greeks) who was enthroned in 1051 in the splendid new Cathedral of Holy Wisdom (Sophia) and most likely reposed in 1053.

He had been a priest in the village of Berestove near Kyiv and a spiritual advisor and friend of Kniaz' Yaroslav the Wise. His election marked an important step in the maturity of the Church of Kyiv, which had nurtured within less than a century its own indigenous hierarchs capable of leading their flock to salvation.

St. Ilarion eulogized the Baptizer of Rus', the Holy Equal-to•the-Apostles Kniaz' Volodymyr the Great with the above words in his monumental work which survives to this day: "Discourse concerning Law and Grace".

From this work we can see the saint as a man of profound faith and joy in the Lord. The name "Ilarion", having the same root as "hilarious", signifies the delight, joy and gladness that are typical of one who is in close communion with God. The adjective is found in the Vesperal Hymn "0 gladsome Light" (phosilaron). With this hymn the Church celebrates the beginning of a new day, which actually begins liturgically when the sun has gone down-but we await and proclaim with joyful certainty the coming of the light. This hope is fulfilled figuratively in the ri sing of the sun which, as we sing is still long hours away, and theologically in the Resurrection of the Lord, the true Sun of Righteousness which the rising of the sun revealed to the Myrrh-bearing Women.

Troparion Tone 1

In truth you were worthily called Ilarion according to your name you possessed a meek and gentle blessedness, by which you were well-pleasing unto our gentle Lord Jesus, pray unto Him for us your servants.

Kondakion Tone 2

Having received the great angelic image of the monast ic life-the holy scheme "and made a second denial of the vanity of this world" you endeavored by all means, 0 Venerable Ilarion" to fulfill our promise in deed and live a holy life in all worthiness for this we do honour and bless you.

The Ukrainian Famine-Genocide 1932-33 - the Holodomor - was a deliberate act to eliminate a nation. Fr. Ihor Kutash talks about the Holodomor in his article on the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of Canada / Українська Православна Церква в Канаді website. It is titled “The Beauty Of The People Of God The Martyrs Of The Holodomor / Раса Народу Божого Мученики Голодомору “

He starts by saying: “If you do not hope, you will never discover what lies beyond hope” (Clement of Alexandria) On the fourth Saturday of November Ukrainians throughout the world remember the millions of

people who died in what has been called the greatest crime the world has ever known, the Holodomor of 1932-33 in the breadbasket of Europe, Ukraine.

He goes on to say: “Those who, blinded by the deceptive passion of lust for power, organized and carried out the horrible crime of mass murder of the people of Ukraine and Kuban’, thought that in this way they would destroy this freedomloving, rebellious nation, as was noted by Raphael Lemkin, who was the first to used the word “genocide” in reference to this very Holodomor. It turned out to have the opposite effect: this act of hatred and unbelievable cruelty calls the attention of the whole world to this nation – and what has been inflicted upon it, and elicits compassion and respect for it. Malice, hatred, cruelty can never have the final victory in this world for its Creator and Source is the Triune God. And His Being is justice, mercy, generosity – in a word, LOVE. As we proclaim in the Nicene Creed: “I look for the resurrection of the dead and the life of the age to come”. This age is ever approaching by the prayers, the sacrifices, the repentance and the righteous thoughts, words and actions of all who open their hearts to the God of Hope. We remember these dead not as victims, but as Martyrs – witnesses to the Age of the Messiah which has already dawned and which, in spite of all the raging of the vanquished powers of Hades, shall one day be fully manifest upon this planet and in all the cosmos. Amen. dawns forevermore! Amen.”

The article is written in both Ukrainian and English. To read the entire article, go to http://uocc.ca/pdf/articlemanager/FRIKUTASH/Holodomor%202DD2F18A.pdf

A prayer on behalf of our priests -St John Kronstadt O Lord, let thy priests be clothed with righteousness, let them always

remember the greatness of their calling, let them not be entangled in the snares of the world and the devil, let them be saved from the cares of the world, the delight in the riches, and the desire for other things entering into their hearts.

Молитва від імені наших священиків - Святого Іоанна Кронштадтського “Господи, нехай Священники Твої зодягнуться в правду, нехай вони завжди пам'ятають велич свого покликання, нехай не заплутаються в тенетах світу і диявола, нехай вони будуть врятовані від турбот світу, радості в багатстві, і бажання інших речей, що входять в їхні серця.”

The Orthodox Church is one Holy, Catholic and From Orthodox Pathway: Apostolic Church in which resides the fullness of Christian truth. It is holy because its head, the Lord Jesus Christ, is holy and made it the unique vehicle of sanctification; it is Catholic because it knows no limitation of time or place and encompasses within itself the entirety of Christ’s Church, and it is Apostolic because it alone has maintained, with unbroken continuity and without any alteration, the faith of the apostles through the ages. You will find the deeper, authentic spiritual life you are looking for in the splendid and moving worship of the Orthodox Church.

Від равославного Шляху: Православна Церква - це Свята, Всесвітня і Апостольська ерква. Вона - є Свята, тому що голова цієї еркви - Ісус Христос, Cвята і має унікальній засіб освячення; вона - є Всесвітня, тому що вона не має обмеження в часі або місці і охоплює в собі всю повноту Христової Церкви, і вона - є Апостольською, тому що тільки вона зберегла, з безперервною спадкоємностю без будь-яких змін, віру апостолів крізь століття. Ви знайдете більш глибоке, справжнє духовне життя, яке ви шукаєте в прекрасній і зворушливій молитві Православної Церкви.

Annual General Meeting January 21st Січня

. . . . . From the Desk of the Cathedral Chair

The parish council discussed a large number of items at the November meeting. Of note was a discussion regarding the presentation by Kindrachuk/Agrey architects on suggested improvements to the interior of our hall. The council has determined that there are numerous suggestions and while they are all interesting in the case of financial prudence they will be looked at on a case by case basis and improvement will occur gradually (yearly).

The set up of the Heritage Fund was discussed with the thought being that some changes need to occur in order to make the Fund more usable for our membership. Changes will be instituted for the 2018 year.

A presentation was given to the council on possible additions to our bingo. The ideas that were brought forward were of interest and the council is exploring whether those ideas will benefit the bingo and the church. The council is also looking towards the AGM in January and has started the budget development process for the 2017-18 fiscal year. Jordan supper was finalized with tickets being priced at $10/person for 13 years of age and up, $5 for ages 6-12 and those under 6 free but a ticket would still be required. The deadline for ticket purchases is January 14, 2018. Call Carol Shinkewski 373-0479, Alicia Klopoushak 242-2753, or Carol Cisecki 343-9987 Any questions or concerns please contact any of the Parish council members.

Концерт присвячений святу Святого Миколая відбудеться 17 грудня

St. Nicholas Concert December 17, 2017

Dear Parents Дорогі Родичі,

We would like to invite all the children that participate in the Sunday School program to join us in the St. Nicholas Concert. Our concert will consist of a couple of Ukrainian songs, an

English poem, an interactive, narrative folk song, English carols, guest performance from Bishop Filevich Choir, and then, of course, a visit from St. Nicholas!

Our program will be held on Sunday, December 17th in the hall basement, immediately following church and lunch. Please note that the children will be singing Otche Nash/Отче Наш during the church service.

Please note that we are asking all children to wear their Ukrainian shirts and dark skirts/pants.

Some children will have lines that they need to memorize and others will have actions and participate in a little poem narration. We would love to have ALL children participate but we need you to work with your child/children to learn the songs and memorize their lines. If you have any questions or require help, please feel free to

contact Dobr. Joanne at [email protected] or Patrusia at [email protected].

For us to be able to help the children learn their parts, we would like the children to be in church by 10:00 so we can get in as much practice as possible. We only have one hour on Sundays. Thank you, Щеро дякуємо, Dobr. Joanne and Pani Patrusia

The Orthodox Church is evangelical, but not Protestant. It is orthodox, but not Jewish. It is catholic, but not Roman. The Orthodox Church has believed, taught, preserved, defended and died for the Faith of the Apostles since the Day of Pentecost 2000 years ago.

Православна Церква є євангельською, не є протестантською. Вона є ортодоксальною, але не єврейською. Вона католицька, але не римська. Вона не є конфесійною - вона є деномінаційною. Вона вірила, навчала, зберігала, захищала і гинула за віру апостолів з дня П'ятдесятниці 2000 років тому.

Holy Trinity Icon Windows : Teachers and Defenders of the Faith

Great Martyr Barbara – Вмц. Варвари Dec 17

This glorious follow er of Christ was betrothed to Christ from early childhood. Her father Dioscorus was a pagan and was renowned for his position and wealth in the city of Heliopolis in Egypt. Dioscorus locked up his only daughter Barbara, brilliant in

mind and of beautiful countenance, in a high tower. He surrounded her with every comfort, gave her female servants, erected idols for

worship, & built her a bathing room with two windows. Looking

through the window at the earth below & the starry heavens above,

Barbara’s mind was opened by the grace of God. She recognized the One True God, the Creator despite the fact that she did not have a human teacher to bring her to this knowledge. Once, while her father was away from the city, she came down from the tower &, according to God’s providence, met some Christian women who revealed the true Faith of Christ to her. Barbara’s heart became inflamed with love for Christ the Lord. She ordered that a third window be cut open in the bath so that the three windows would represent the Holy Trinity. On one wall she traced a Cross with her finger, and the Cross etched itself deep in the stone as if cut by a chisel. A pool of water sprang forth from her footprints on the floor of the bath, which later gave healing of diseases to many. Learning of his daughter’s faith, Dioscorus beat her severely and drove her from the tower. He pursued her in order to kill her, but a cliff opened up and hid Barbara from her brutal father. When she appeared again, her father brought her to Martianus, the magistrate, who handed her over for torture. They stripped the innocent Barbara and flogged her until her entire body was covered with blood & wounds, but the lord Himself appeared to her in prison with His angels & healed her. A certain woman, Juliana, upon seeing this, desired martyrdom for herself. Both women were severely tortured &with mockery were led through the city. Their breasts were cut off and much blood flowed from them. They were finally led to the place of execution, where Dioscorus himself slaughtered his daughter, & Juliana was slain by the soldiers. That same day, lightning struck the house of Dioscorus, killing him & Martianus. St. Barbara suffered in the year 306. Her miracle-working relics rest in Kiev. Glorified in the Kingdom of Christ, she appeared many times even in our own day, sometimes alone & sometimes in the company of the Most-holy Theotokos. Молитва до святої великомучениці Варвари

Свята славна і всехвальна великомученице Христова Варваро! Через страждання твої мученицькі прославляємо Самого Страстополо жника Христа, Який дав тобі не тільки в Нього вірувати, але й страждати за Нього. Молимо тебе, відома за бажання наші заступнице: моли з нами і за нас прихильного зі Свого милосердя до благань Бога, щоб милостиво почув нас, що просимо Його благість, i не відкинув від нас усі потрібні для спасіння й життя прохання, i дарував християнську кончину життя нашого, безболісну, бездоганну і мирну, Божественних Таїн причасну; і всім, хто на всякому місці, в усякій скорботі й напастях потребує Його милосердя й допомоги, велику Свою подав милість, щоб благодаттю Божою i твоїм теплим заступництвом, душею й тілом завжди у здоров’ї перебуваючи, славили дивного у святих Своїх Бога Ізраїлевого, Який не віддаляє допомоги Своєї від нас, завжди, нині, і повсякчас, i на віки віків.Амінь.
