  • A Letter to Pope Francis Concerning His Past, the Abysmal State of Papism, and a Plea to Return to Holy Orthodoxy
    A Letter to Pope Francis Concerning His Past, the Abysmal State of Papism, and a Plea to Return to Holy Orthodoxy The lengthy letter that follows was written by His Eminence, the Metropolitan of Piraeus, Seraphim, and His Eminence, the Metropolitan of Dryinoupolis, Andrew, both of the Church of Greece. It was sent to Pope Francis on April 10, 2014. The Orthodox Christian Information Center (OrthodoxInfo.com) assisted in editing the English translation. It was posted on OrthodoxInfo.com on Great and Holy Monday, April 14, 2014. The above title was added for the English version and did not appear in the Greek text. Metropolitan Seraphim is well known and loved in Greece for his defense of Orthodoxy, his strong stance against ecumenism, and for the philanthropic work carried out in his Metropolis (http://www.imp.gr/). His Metropolis is also well known for Greece’s first and best ecclesiastical radio station: http://www.pe912fm.com/. This radio station is one of the most important tools for Orthodox outreach in Greece. Metropolitan Seraphim was born in 1956 in Athens. He studied law and theology, receiving his master’s degree and his license to practice law. In 1980 he was tonsured a monk and ordained to the holy diaconate and the priesthood by His Beatitude Seraphim of blessed memory, Archbishop of Athens and All Greece. He served as the rector of various churches and as the head ecclesiastical judge for the Archdiocese of Athens (1983) and as the Secretary of the Synodal Court of the Church of Greece (1985-2000). In December of 2000 the Holy Synod of the Ecumenical Patriarch elected him as an auxiliary bishop of the Holy Archdiocese of Australia in which he served until 2002.

  • Aktioner Och Reaktioner Kristna Kvinnors Motreaktioner Till Femens Aktioner I En Proteströrelse På Internet
    Aktioner och reaktioner Kristna kvinnors motreaktioner till Femens aktioner i en proteströrelse på internet Actions and reactions Christian womens counteractions against Femen’s actions in a protest movement on the Internet Bettina Sirén Termin: HT13/VT14 Kurs: RKT250 examensarbete, 30 hp avancerad nivå Nivå: Masterexamen Handledare: Daniel Enstedt Abstract Religion is not only manifested in the more traditional forms such as church attendance, but also in various expressions on social media. Facebook is seen by many as creating a social platform where different opinions and more unconventional discussions may flourish unlike how the traditional media convey information. Internet is therefore an interesting platform for investigating how information about religion is spread by researching religious behavior and expression. The focus of this essay is to examine visible, which includes text as a social practice, forms of religious expression shown by the discursive struggle between the Facebook-group Christian Women Against Femen and its counterpart feminist movement Femen. The essay seeks to answer how notions of femininity on the Internet are formulated and reproduced based on the discourse between these two women's movements. The essay highlights how the women’s movements, with their bodily manifestation and by their usage of words, construct and reproduce different images of gender and womanhood. Femen’s method of performing action is to provoke and liberate women from the masculine structures of power thus including the church as such an institution. The struggle appears when Christian Women Against Femen aspire to maintain the ideal image of womanhood based on traditional Christian values which they manifest by posting protest pictures on the wall of the Facebook-group.

  • Celebrating 160 Years DIOCESE of NATAL ANGLICAN CHURCH of SOUTHERN AFRICA
    Celebrating 160 years DIOCESE OF NATAL ANGLICAN CHURCH OF SOUTHERN AFRICA IziNdaba Issue 82–16th August 2013 www.anglican­kzn.org.za ‘STAND UP AND WALK’ –‘SUKUMA UHAMBE’ Acts: 3:6 We offer you this week (still women’s month) the remarkable story of Manche Masemola, a 20th century African martyr. The author, Millicent Kuzwayo, is a member of our diocese. She wrote this piece at my invitation. +Rubin THE MARTYR MANCHE MASEMOLA OF SEKHUKHUNE Manche Masemola lived with her parents, her two brothers, a sister and her cousin Lucia in Ga-Marishne village, and she never went to school. She was about 13 years old when she and Lucia heard Fr. Augustine Moeka CR, preach at St Peter’s Anglican Church Ga-Marishane. Inspired to hear more, she requested her parents’ permission to attend the hearer’s classes at the church. Her parents did not see any problem in this, and they allowed her to do so, but they insisted that she had to participate in the traditional Pedi initiation school. When Manche’s interest in Christianity persisted, she and her cousin were sent away from Ga-Marishane (which was close to the church), to Vlakplaas, as it may be known to some. This did not stop her from going to church and she and Lucia would sneak out into the fields, change into better clothes, hide the ones they had on and run to, church on their way back home,they would change again. It is not known exactly what the real bone of contention was, except that Manche seemed to have been spending a lot of time going to church rather than working in the fields, thus angering her mother.

  • World Youth Day 2013 Testimony
    World Youth Day 2013 Testimony Whenever something big and God-related happens to me I seem to feel some kind of resistance because obviously there is a negative force that doesn’t want us to experience God’s awesomeness. For me, it happens in my work life: it seems like I just get so caught up in it I forget to do some of the most important things, like going to church and spending daily time with God in prayer. This is what happened to me before I jetted-off on that plane to Brazil. I remember it so clearly. The last Sunday before I left I was at work and another work dilemma came up and I knew I had two choices - abandon my team and head to the 7pm mass - after all, my finish time was 6:30pm - or help out my team who were very short staffed. Standing at work, I thought “I have no choice.” Jesus would definitely not want me to abandon my work team during their time of need but at the same time, my spirit desperately needed the nourishment from Sunday mass. So getting on the plane heading to Brazil, I was actually quite tired and in a way lacking a sense of why I was going because I just didn’t get that time to build up any excitement. I also made sure I didn’t have any expectations because as we all know this can only lead to a let-down. So when people asked me what I was expecting I told them I had no idea and I didn’t want to know either.
