JOHN CHRYSOSTOM GREAT LITANY FIRST ANTIPHON—Psalm verses with refrain Vs. It is good to give praise unto the Lord, and to chant unto Thy name, O Most High; To proclaim Thy mercy in the morning, and Thy truth by night. [Refrain] Refrain: Through the intercessions of the Theotokos, O Savior, save us. Vs. Upright is the Lord our God, and there is no unrighteousness in Him. [Refrain] Vs. Glory…now & ever…Amen. [Refrain] SECOND ANTIPHON—Psalm verses with refrain Vs. The Lord is King, He is clothed with majesty; the Lord is clothed with strength and hath girded Himself. Refrain: O Son Of God Who rose from the dead, save us who sing to Thee, Alleluia! Vs. For He hath established the world which shall not be shaken. [Refrain] Vs. Holiness befits Thy house, O Lord, forevermore. [Refrain] Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, now and ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen. Only begotten Son and immortal Word of God, who for our salvation didst will to be incarnate of the Holy Theotokos and ever-virgin Mary, who without change didst become man and was crucified, O Christ our God, trampling down death by death, who art one of the Holy Trinity, glorified with the Father and the Holy Spirit: save us. THIRD ANTIPHON—The Beatitudes or “Sermon on the Mount” After each of the verses, the choir and congregation sing the refrain: “Remember us, O Lord, when you come in your Kingdom.” AT THE LITTLE ENTRANCE, WE SING THE FOLLOWING SPECIAL HYMNS FOR THE DAY: Troparion of the Resurrection Tone 1 Byzantine melody (Music on p. 40 of Liturgy book) harmonized by Fr. J. Finley While the stone was sealed by the Jews, and the soldiers were guarding Thy most pure body, Thou didst arise on the third day, O Savior, granting life to the world. For which cause the heavenly pow’rs cried aloud unto Thee, O Giver of life; Glory to Thy resurrection, O Christ! Glory to Thy kingdom! Glory to Thy providence, O Thou Who alone art the lover of mankind. Troparion of All Saints of America Tone 8 Serbian Chant As the bountiful harvest of Your sowing of salvation, the lands of North America offer to You, O Lord, all the saints who have shone in them. By their prayers keep the Church and our land in abiding peace through the Theotokos, O most Merciful One! Troparion to St. Athanasius Tone 3 Byzantine Melody (Music on page 54 of Liturgy Book) harmonized by Fr. J. Finley Holy Bishop Athanasius, you became a stronghold of Orthodoxy, strengthening the Church through your divine teachings. Opposing the heretical opinion of Arius, you explained and taught that the Son is equal in nature with the Father. O holy Father, intercede with Christ God that He may grant us abundant mercy. Kontakion for All Saints of North America Tone 3 Today the choir of Saints who were pleasing to God in the lands of North Amer ica now stands before us in the Church and invisibly prays to God for us. With them the An gels glo rify Him, and all the Saints of the Church of Christ keep festival with them; and together they all pray for us to the Pre-eter nal God. TRISAGION (THRICE-HOLY) HYMN (p. 9 of Liturgy Book) Holy God, Holy Mighty, Holy Immortal, have mercy on us. +Glory to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit, now and ever and unto ages of ages. Amen. Holy Immortal have mercy on us. Deacon: With strength! People: Holy God, Holy Mighty, Holy Immortal, have mercy on us. Preparatory Psalm Verses before the Epistle (Prokeimenon) Tone 1 Let Thy mercy, O Lord, be upon us, as we have set our hope on Thee. (Ps 32/33:22) Verse: Rejoice in the Lord, O you righteous! Praise is becoming to the upright. (Ps 32/33:1) THE EPISTLE READING Romans 2:10-16 Brethren, glory and honor and peace for everyone who does good, the Jew first and also the Greek. For God shows no partiality. All who have sinned without the Law will also perish without the Law, and all who have sinned under the Law will be judged by the Law. For it is not the hearers of the Law who are righteous before God, but the doers of the Law who will be justified. When Gentiles who have not the Law do by nature what the Law requires, they are a law to themselves, even though they do not have the Law. They show that what the Law requires is written on their hearts, while their conscience also bears witness and their conflicting thoughts accuse or per- haps excuse them on that day when, according to my gospel, God judges the secrets of men by Christ Jesus. Alleluia before the Gospel Tone 1 Chanter: Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia! People: Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia! Verse: It is God Who avenges me, and subdues people under me. (Ps 17/18:47) Verse: He gives great deliverance to His King, and shows mercy to His anointed, to David and his seed forever. (Ps 17/18:50) GOSPEL READING Matthew 4:18-23 At that time, as Jesus was walking by the Sea of Galilee, He saw two brothers, Simon who is called Peter and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea; for they were fishermen. And He said to them, “Follow Me, and I will make you fishers of men.” Immediately they left their nets and followed Him. And going on from there He saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets, and He called them. Immediately they left the boat and their father, and followed Him. And He went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues and preaching the gospel of the kingdom and healing every disease and every infirmity among the people. Meglynarion—Hymn to the Mother of God It is truly meet to bless you, O Theotokos, ever blessed and most pure and the Mother of our God. More honorable than the Cherubim, and more glorious beyond compare than the Sera- phim.

  • A Brief Biography of Mikhail Sergeevich Konstantinov
    A Brief Biography of Mikhail Sergeevich Konstantinov (compiled by Vladimir V. Krassovsky and presented at the 20th Annual Russian Orthodox Church Musicians' Conference in Seattle, October 4-7, 2007) Mikhail Sergeevich Konstantinov, a conductor, composer and singer was born on October 22, 1904 in the Fortress of Novo-Georgievsk, Russia. He made giant contributions to the sphere of secular classical music and even more so to the realm of Russian Orthodox liturgical music. His fate was both glorious as well as tragic, because he lived during the most treacherous times of his homeland’s history. After WW2, he became one the millions of compatriots who were forced to emigrate, which in turn rendered his talent and his creative life virtually unknown, even to the majority of his compatriots. Had the historical and social circumstances been different, the name of Mikhail Konstantinov undoubtedly would have taken its place among such giants as Kastal’sky, Chesnokov, Shaliapin, or Sobinov, all those who have richly embellished the history of Russian culture with their talents. Within the scope of this very short and by far not complete biographical overview, and using the limited amount of resources at my disposal, I will attempt to recreate the spiritual and creative make-up of Mikhail Konstantinov in order to allow future generations to familiarize themselves with the life and work of a most prominent and distinguished conductor, tenor, musicologist and composer, who by rights should be ranked among the finest musicians of Russia, as well as the Diaspora. There is a saying: “God gave us three cities – Matushka Moskva for our hearts, shimmering St.

  • THE RUSSIAN ORTHODOX PRESENCE in AUSTRALIA: the History of a Church Told from Recently Opened Archives and Previously Unpublished Sources
    THE RUSSIAN ORTHODOX PRESENCE IN AUSTRALIA: The History of a Church told from recently opened archives and previously unpublished sources. Submitted by MICHAEL ALEX PROTOPOPOV B. Theol., B. Ed., Gr Dip Ed Admin., M. Phil., T.P.T.C. A thesis submitted in total fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Philosophy and Theology Faculty of Arts and Sciences Australian Catholic University Research Services Locked Bag 4115 Fitzroy, Victoria 3065 Australia 31 January 2005 A History of the Russian Orthodox Presence in Australia. ABSTRACT The Russian Orthodox community is a relatively small and little known group in Australian society, however, the history of the Russian presence in Australia goes back to 1809. As the Russian community includes a number of groups, both Christian and non-Christian, it would not be feasible to undertake a complete review of all aspects of the community and consequently, this work limits itself in scope to the Russian Orthodox community. The thesis broadly chronicles the development of the Russian community as it struggles to become a viable partner in Australia’s multicultural society. Many never before published documents have been researched and hitherto closed archives in Russia have been accessed. To facilitate this research the author travelled to Russia, the United States and a number of European centres to study the archives of pre-Soviet Russian communities. Furthermore, the archives and publications of the Australian and New Zealand Diocese of the Russian Orthodox Church have been used extensively. The thesis notes the development of Australian-Russian relations as contacts with Imperial Russian naval and scientific ships visiting the colonies increase during the 1800’s and traces this relationship into the twentieth century.

  • Archpriest David Brum Autobiography
    Archpriest David Brum Autobiography I was born in Fresno, California, on November 16, 1954, the oldest of three children born to Orville Antonio and Marjory Brum. My family, like the majority of Portuguese-American families in California, gained its livelihood in agriculture. I was raised on a dairy farm in Riverdale, California, a small town of approximately 2,000 people located in the San Joaquin Valley. The life of family farming, now almost disappeared because of the development of the agricultural industry, was a way of life that enabled me to learn the value of hard work as well as faith in God, dependence upon family, and the importance of community. I attended the local elementary school and graduated from Riverdale High School in 1973. The community in which I was raised was predominantly comprised of Portuguese- American families with many interconnected relationships, most of which were familial ties. The focal point of community life was the local parish church. While my immediate family was not particularly devout, we were all involved in church activities and in community service on various levels. From the age of seven, I served as an altar server and attended the twice-weekly catechism classes that were taught by my mother, aunts, and family friends. Because of this church involvement as well as my family’s tradition of community service, from an early age I felt attracted to church life and believed that I was being called to serve God as a priest. This attraction to church life and the thought of a vocation to the Priesthood was nurtured by members of my family, our local parish priest, and, in some cases, even by my peers.
