  • The Saint Andrew News
    The Saint Andrew News St. Andrew Orthodox Church - Riverside, CA Dear Parishioners, As we launch out into this first week of Great Lent we find our systems shocked and we find that the daily routine and rhythm of life is not at all easy to break. Here is the counsel of the Lord as we find it in the Matins of the 1st day of Great Lent: ―Let us joyfully begin the all-hallowed season of abstinence; and let us shine with the bright radiance of the holy commandments of Christ our God, with the brightness of love and the splendor of prayer, with the purity of holiness and the strength of good courage. So, clothed in raiment of light, let us hasten to the Holy Resurrection on the third day, that shines upon the world with the glory of eternal life." There are two important attitudes that we must have at this time according to this text, and that we must maintain throughout the whole of Lent. These two dispositions Volume 18 Issue 2 & 3 are: 1. A spirit of joy. 2. A courageous resolve to spiritually struggle. February/March 2009 1. "Let us joyfully begin..." Remember my dear ones that Lent is a great gift from Published Monthly God to us! It is an immense honor to keep the Lent, to make spiritual progress towards the Lord and His Kingdom, and to receive so much grace as we do St. Andrew Orthodox Church of during the fast. And remember that this is all so that Riverside is a parish of the Self-ruled Antiochian Orthodox we can authentically and properly embrace and rejoice Christian Archdiocese of North in our Savior's Resurrection from the dead on the America, Diocese of the West, Third Day! Above all this Lent try to fast, to serve, to the See of the Right Reverend deny yourself, to pray, to go to church, with joy and JOSEPH, Bishop of not with sourness.

If 6:00 pm - Akathist to Ss Peter the eye is light, so the body will be light. But if the eye is dark, so the body & Paul will be dark. By 'eye' is meant the soul, for the eye is the window of the soul. In these words Our Lord says that we are not to blame our bodies for our Sat, June 23rd sins. Our bodies are the servants of our souls. If our souls are corrupted, then 6:00 pm - Great Vespers so also will be our bodies. On the other hand, if our souls are clean, then our bodies will also be clean. It is not our bodies which control our lives, or even Sun, June 24th our minds, but our souls. And it is our souls that we are called on to cleanse, 9:00 pm - 3rd & 6th Hours cultivate and refine first of all. It is the spiritual which has primacy in our 9:30 am - Divine Liturgy lives. Once our souls are clean, then our minds and our bodies will also be cleaned. Neither can we serve two Masters, the master of the material world Parish Council and the master of the spiritual world.

  • Hadrian the African: Fact Sheet / Time Line (Michael Wood)
    HADRIAN THE AFRICAN – fact sheet Michael Wood, 2020 There is no separate in-depth account of Hadrian and his legacy. The key study of his life is by M Lapidge and B Bischoff Biblical Commentaries from the Canterbury School of Theodore and Hadrian Cambridge 1994 pp82-132. To draw up this fact sheet/time line I have used this along with older studies starting with AS Cook in 1923, and added new finds made over the last few years, the latest by Franck Cinato in 2017. It mainly concentrates on what we might be able to deduce about his life and career in Africa and Naples before he came to England. For all his importance, Hadrian was till recently a poorly studied figure – not least because of the difficulty of finding evidence; but the one certainty is that more is to be discovered. My article on him comes out in the October issue of the BBC History magazine. Any comments or suggestions gratefully received! 1) Hadrian was born in North Africa (in the 620s?) and died in Canterbury on January 9 709 or 710. 2) He was of ‘African race” vir natione Afir (so Bede- Hadrian was alive till Bede was in his thirties.) NB the use of this term by the likes of Virgil, Martial and Statius: it is often specifically used by Latin poets to refer to a native of Libya. Maybe then he was a Berber/Amazigh? Probably as a fluent Greek speaker he was from the Greek-speaking part of North Africa – i.e. Cyrenaica; but where exactly we don’t know.

  • Things Were Messy for the Church in England When Pope Vitalian Chose a Monk, Born in Saint Paul's Birthplace of Tarsus, to Be
    Homily for Theodore of Tarsus, Archbishop of Canterbury, 690 September 19, 2020 By the Reverend Stephen Gerth 2 Timothy 2:1–10*; Psalm 34:9–14; Matthew 24:42–47 Things were messy for the church in England when Pope Vitalian chose a monk, born in Saint Paul’s birthplace of Tarsus, to be the sixth archbishop of Canterbury. I wasn’t sure what I would discover this morning when I started work on my homily. But I’m glad it’s my turn to be standing here today. In my homily for the commemoration of Aidan, bishop of Lindisfarne, who died on August 31, in the year 651, I remarked that when Augustine arrived in England, “he discovered a Christianity that had survived, cut off from the Roman Empire, and, it seems, the church across the channel . The serious work of bringing unity to the Christian community in England happened after Augustine and Aidan’s deaths . The significant issues were church organization and discipline—[among them] how to calculate the date of Easter. There was a Synod at Whitby in 664,1 followed by meetings of English bishops in Hertford 1 Diarmaid MacCulloch, Christianity: The First Three Thousand Years (New York: Viking, 2010), 337. 2 in 673 and Hatfield in 679.2 Professor Diarmaid MacCulloch, in his book, Christianity: The First Three Thousand Years, points out that, although there was no political unity in England, there was a united church.3 It was the ministry of Archbishop Theodore of Tarsus who united English Christians.
