Compassion for Animals in the Orthodox Church
International Journal of Orthodox Theology 10:2 (2019) 9 urn:nbn:de:0276-2019-2025 His Eminence Kallistos Ware, Metropolitan of Diokleia Compassion for Animals in the Orthodox Church Abstract In this article, His Eminence Metro- politan Kallistos Ware deals with the question about the place of animals in the liturgical and theological world of the Orthodox Church. “The art of the icon is par excellence a liturgical art.” Therefore, if we can find icons with animals and plants or stars and all nature, we might understand this as an eschatological view of the uni- verse. “We humans are not saved from the world but with the world; and that means, with the animals.” Another meaningful question of this article is: “Do animals have souls?” “Even if animals are not ensouled, yet they are undoubtedly sentient. They are responsive and vulnerable. (…) As His Eminence Kallistos living beings, sensitive and easily Ware, Metropolitan of hurt, they are to be viewed as a Diokleia 10 His Eminence Kalistos Ware, Metropolitan of Diokleia 'Thou', not an 'It', (…) not as objects to be exploited and manip- ulated but as subjects, capable of joy and sorrow, of happiness and affliction. They are to be approached with gentleness and tenderness; and, more than that, with respect and reverence, for they are precious in God's sight.” Keywords Compassion, animals, Orthodox Church, worship, soul What is a merciful heart? It is a heart on fire for the whole of creation, for humankind, for the birds, for the animals, for the demons, for all that exists. St Isaac the Syrian (7th century) 1 A place for animals in our worship? As I sit writing at my table, I have before me a Russian icon of the martyrs St Florus and St Laurus.

Handbook of Religious Beliefs and Practices
STATE OF WASHINGTON DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS HANDBOOK OF RELIGIOUS BELIEFS AND PRACTICES 1987 FIRST REVISION 1995 SECOND REVISION 2004 THIRD REVISION 2011 FOURTH REVISION 2012 FIFTH REVISION 2013 HANDBOOK OF RELIGIOUS BELIEFS AND PRACTICES INTRODUCTION The Department of Corrections acknowledges the inherent and constitutionally protected rights of incarcerated offenders to believe, express and exercise the religion of their choice. It is our intention that religious programs will promote positive values and moral practices to foster healthy relationships, especially within the families of those under our jurisdiction and within the communities to which they are returning. As a Department, we commit to providing religious as well as cultural opportunities for offenders within available resources, while maintaining facility security, safety, health and orderly operations. The Department will not endorse any religious faith or cultural group, but we will ensure that religious programming is consistent with the provisions of federal and state statutes, and will work hard with the Religious, Cultural and Faith Communities to ensure that the needs of the incarcerated community are fairly met. This desk manual has been prepared for use by chaplains, administrators and other staff of the Washington State Department of Corrections. It is not meant to be an exhaustive study of all religions. It does provide a brief background of most religions having participants housed in Washington prisons. This manual is intended to provide general guidelines, and define practice and procedure for Washington State Department of Corrections institutions. It is intended to be used in conjunction with Department policy. While it does not confer theological expertise, it will, provide correctional workers with the information necessary to respond too many of the religious concerns commonly encountered.

Abcs of Orthodoxy
SESSION 5 Prayer In the Name of the Father and of the Son and Of the Holy Spirit. Amen. O Heavenly King the Comforter, the Spirit of Truth, who are in all places and fill all things, treasurer of blessings and giver of life. Come and dwell within us and cleanse us from every blemish and save our souls, O Blessed One. In the Name of the Father and Of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. Glory Be to Jesus Christ! Glory Forever! Last week we discussed the main Doctrines and Dogmas of the Orthodox Faith - the main teachings or truths about the Orthodox Christian Faith that have been revealed to us by the Holy Spirit, through Holy Scripture and the gatherings of the Church in Council. In particular we studied the Creed. I must admit that I covered a large amount of material in a relatively short period of time and I am sure that it was too much to absorb. And, you might have even thought or said after the class was over, that this information was beyond you and concluded that dogma is something that should be left up to theologians and scholars to debate. If you thought this way, I do not blame you, I even recall being overwhelmed in Seminary with many of the same topics, But let me share with you a very helpful explanation that one of my professors gave me as to the relationship between theology, that is the study of the teachings of God, and the life in Christ.

The Paschal Hours
The Paschal Hours To be read during bright week in place of morning and evening prayers, thanksgiving prayers after holy communion, the prayers of the hours, compline, and the midnight office. Apolytikion of Pascha, Tone Five, thrice: Christ is risen from the dead, trampling down death by death, and upon those in the tombs bestowing life! Resurrectional Ikos, Tone Six, thrice: Having beheld the Resurrection of Christ, let us worship the Holy Lord Jesus, the only sinless one. We worship Thy Cross, O Christ, and we praise and glorify Thy Holy Resurrection, for Thou art our God, and we know no other than Thee: we call on Thy name. Come, all you faithful, let us worship Christ's holy Resurrection, for behold, through the Cross joy has come into all the world. Let us ever bless the Lord, praising His Resurrection, for by enduring the Cross for us, He has destroyed death by death. The Hypakoe, Tone Six, once: Forestalling the dawn, the women came with Mary, and found the stone rolled away from the sepulchre, and heard from the angel: why seek ye among the dead, as though He were a mortal, Him Who liveth in everlasting light? Behold the grave-clothes. Go quickly and proclaim to the world that the Lord is risen and hath slain death. For He is the Son of God Who saveth mankind. The Kontakion, Tone Eight, once: Though Thou didst descend into the grave, O Immortal One, yet didst Thou destroy the power of hades. And didst arise as victor, O Christ God, calling to the myrrh-bearing women: Rejoice! And giving peace unto Thine apostles: Thou Who dost grant resurrection to the fallen.
