2019 Typicon Áëàãîñëîâè â³íåöü ðîêó áëàãîñòè Òâ, Ãîñïîäè! (ïñ. 64:11) 2019 Church Typicon Thou shalt bless the crown of the year with Thy goodness, O Lord! (ps. 64:11) Слава Ісусу Христу! Glory to Jesus Christ! This typicon was prepared by Fr. Bohdan Hladio of St. John the Baptist Ukrainian Orthodox Church in Oshawa, Ontario, as part of the “Pastyr.ca” project of the Eastern Eparchy of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of Canada, and is based upon the original work done by Archimandrite (now Archbishop) Job (Getcha). The liturgical directives contained herein conform to the rules governing the order for services found in the Typicon of the Orthodox Church. Please note that since this typicon has been prepared for parish usage certain abbreviations (especially in regards to the number of tropars and kondaks sung at Sunday Liturgy) have been made. The complete order for singing all tropars at a Sunday or weekday Liturgy can be found in appendix one. The tropars given at the end of Vespers in this typicon assume that the vigil will be celebrated. If Vespers is being celebrated by itself (i.e., not together with Matins) the proper order for the singing of the tropars before the dismissal is given in appendix two. A guide outlining how the prokiemen and epistle are intoned when more than one is indicated can be found in appendix three. Please feel free to use this typicon yourself, or even to share it with other clergy or faithful who can make use of it for the glory of God. Please do not publish this typicon, nor post it to a web-site, without my express permission. Please note that in accordance with common practice dates are given first according to the Julian (Old/Church) Calendar, and then according to the civil (Gregorian) calendar.

  • The Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy
    THE CONSTITUTION ON THE SACRED LITURGY Sacrosanctum Concilium, 4 December, 1963 INTRODUCTION 1. The sacred Council has set out to impart an ever-increasing vigor to the Christian life of the faithful; to adapt more closely to the needs of our age those institutions which are subject to change; to foster whatever can promote union among all who believe in Christ; to strengthen whatever can help to call all mankind into the Church's fold. Accordingly it sees particularly cogent reasons for undertaking the reform and promotion of the liturgy. 2. For it is the liturgy through which, especially in the divine sacrifice of the Eucharist, "the work of our redemption is accomplished,1 and it is through the liturgy, especially, that the faithful are enabled to express in their lives and manifest to others the mystery of Christ and the real nature of the true Church. The Church is essentially both human and divine, visible but endowed with invisible realities, zealous in action and dedicated to contemplation, present in the world, but as a pilgrim, so constituted that in her the human is directed toward and subordinated to the divine, the visible to the invisible, action to contemplation, and this present world to that city yet to come, the object of our quest.2 The liturgy daily builds up those who are in the Church, making of them a holy temple of the Lord, a dwelling-place for God in the Spirit,3 to the mature measure of the fullness of Christ.4 At the same time it marvelously increases their power to preach Christ and thus show forth the Church, a sign lifted up among the nations,5 to those who are outside, a sign under which the scattered children of God may be gathered together 6 until there is one fold and one shepherd.7 _______________________________________________________ 1.

  • June 09, 2020 Rev. Father, Hon. President, & Est. Members of the Community Council, Churches of the Greek Orthodox Archdioc
    June 09, 2020 Rev. Father, Hon. President, & Est. Members of the Community Council, Churches of the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of Canada In Ontario Beloved in Christ, Plan for the Reopening of the Churches 1. Church leaders are responsible for the implementation and adherence to all health regulations issued by each Province. If any particular parish feels that they are not ready to implement the following guidelines immediately, they can postpone re-opening for up to a week. 2. All those in high risk groups are strongly urged to stay home in accordance with government guidelines. 3. Each Church according to its area should determine how many people it can safely host per service, while maintaining government guidelines (2 m social distancing and 30% capacity). 4. There should be more services during the week to accommodate all the faithful, or more than one (1) service will be done daily so people can attend and maintain social distancing. 5. Only one chanter per chanting station (analogion) is permitted. 6. Up to five (5) altar boys per service are permitted (depending on size of altar area) and only one sexton. 7. When full capacity of 30% is reached, no parishioners will be allowed into the Church. Additional people are free to wait outside until the end of Liturgy, maintaining social distance. Please note that Church halls can be used for additional seating, provided they do not surpass 30% of the hall’s occupancy and still maintain social distancing. When Liturgy concludes clergy have 2 options: a) After the first group exits the Church, those waiting outside may be allowed in to receive Holy Communion or b) If they are too many people, clergy can consider, or even plan beforehand, to have additional services the same day.

  • 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.
