  • The Communists and the Bulgarian . Orthodox
    . The Communists and the Bulgarian .Orthodox Church, 1944-48: The Rise and Fall of Exarch Stefan SPAS T.RAIKIN For a long time before the communist takeover in Bulgaria on 9 Sep­ tember 1944, the Bulgarian Orthodox Church and the Communist Party had been in a state of open hostility. The Bulgarian communists held firmly to the Marxist view that religion is the opium ofthe people. They carried on agitation at every level to discredit religion and the Church-. Intellectuals were told that to hold any religious beliefs is to regress to superstition. For the peasants and working classes, the priest was reduced to an object of ridicule for his laziness and immorality, illustrated with many degrading stories. This campaign, waged largely by young men who had. received some education in provincial towns, was conducted primarily in village taverns and on street corners where peasant youth congregated in the absence of any other social outlets, and was highly successful. To this challenge the Church could not find an adequate response. The mutually exclusive philosophical positions of Church and communism deprived both Church and Party of any point of contact. They remained total strangers, completely opposed to each other. The Communist Party never tried to infiltrate the Church or to create its own following there. Unlike the Orthodox Church in Yugoslavia, where numerous priests found themselves in the partisan groups of Marshal Tito, the Bulgarian Church was conspicuously absent from the "Fatherland Front" organised by the communists as a front to take over the country in 1944. The Church was part of the political and social order in the country, and was dependent upon this order for its survival.

  • The Reverend Catherine Wright
    Announcing the 8th Rector of St. Matthew’s: The Reverend Catherine Wright “Almighty God, giver of every good gift: Look graciously on your Church, and so guide the minds of those who shall choose a rector for this parish, that we may receive a faithful pastor, who will care for your people and equip us for our ministries; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.” This was the prayer recited when we commissioned our Rector Search Committee at our annual meeting in January, before every meeting of the committee since, and by so many of you throughout the year. It has sustained the committee’s efforts over their more than 1000 combined hours invested in the search, has strengthened their discernment, and has acted as a foundation to chart the next chapter for our parish. Reverend Catherine Wright, who also goes by “Mother Katie,” has been described by those who know her well as “a rock with great sense of humor and humility,” who understands “how to live faith with challenges,” who “puts pastoral care first,” and who “knows God’s grace.” Though our search spanned thousands of miles, Mother Katie will be coming to us from only a few miles away at St. David’s, Austin, where she has served for more than eight years as both their Locum Tenens during their rector search and as second chair to their current rector. Previously she served as Rector at St. Andrew’s in Elyria, Ohio. Her service at St. Matthew’s will begin on February 1, 2021, so that she may honor her service at her current parish during Advent and prepare for her tenure with us.

  • Pope Benedict XVI's Visit to United Kingdom
    11 september, 2010 Pope Benedict XVI’s Visit to United Kingdom - Rector of Shrine of Fatima reflects on “most important” apostolic visit Under the title “ Through Mary, Mother of Unity”, the Rector of the Shrine of Fatima in Portugal reflects, in editorial in the September issue of “Voz da Fátima”, the institution’s official newspaper, on the apostolic visit Holy Father Benedict XVI is making to the United Kingdom on the 16th thru the 19th of this month. Fr. Virgílio Antunes states that “the doctrinal dialogue (between the Anglican and the Catholic Churches), always difficult, has gone on, producing some fruits, as it is evident from the joint declarations issued by the committees constituted for that kind of work”. On the other hand, he admits that “some sectors of the Anglican Church have caused great fractures, specially in what pertains to morals and pastoral ministry”. That is why the visit of Benedict XVI to the United Kingdom is seen by the Rector as “very important”, “since it is a nation with an Anglican majority and an enormous influence throughout the world as well as one of the great targets of the ecumenical dialogue inn which the Catholic Church is engaged in”. And he adds: “Pope Benedict XVI seems keen on opening the doors of the church to all those who, due to historical circumstances, find themselves outside full communion with the Catholic Church, as it is clear from measures he has already taken. He knows fully well that the weight of centuries as well as of institutions firmly rooted, coupled with sentimental reasons, end up being greater than the weight of theology or doctrine, the weight of reflection and reason.

  • Dear St. John's, Pope Francis Recently Said, “Rivers Do Not Drink Their Own
    A MESSAGE FROM THE RECTOR: Dear St. John’s, Pope Francis recently said, “Rivers do not drink their own water; trees do not eat their own fruit; the sun does not shine on itself and flowers do not spread their fragrance for themselves. Living for others is a rule of nature. We are all born to help each other. No matter how difficult it is…Life is good when you are happy; but much better when others are happy because of you.” I have been thinking a lot about this idea of living for others since this pandemic and quarantine began. Many of you are wearing masks to protect those most vulnerable. You are staying away from your grandkids and spouses and friends and loved ones in an effort to flatten the curve and do your part. Neighbors are helping each other with groceries, yard work, and sharing resources. Churches remain empty spaces much like our restaurants, local businesses, and schools. Everyone is doing their part because we were created to help each other; to live for one another. As you know, our leaders have begun the difficult work of planning our re-entry. Counties are moving into various new phases under new guidelines. Soon Lancaster will be following suit. The yellow phase awaits, but as your rector, I have to ask are we ready? Are we prepared as a community of faith, responsible for the wellbeing of others, to open our doors? Are we prepared to worship with key elements missing like congregational singing, passing the peace, and participating in the Holy Eucharist? There are no easy answers to these questions, only faithful ones.
