  • Cycle of Services in the Eastern Orthodox Church Compiled by Archimandrite Nektarios Serfes
    Cycle of Services in the Eastern Orthodox Church Compiled By Archimandrite Nektarios Serfes Introduction by Father Nektarios Serfes: Nothing is so spiritually uplifting, and so rewarding then prayer before God in the Church. The Orthodox Church has a cycle of services, and all of us should make every means to attend these services. It’s not really how long are these services, but what we put into them that is spiritually rewarding. When the Church calls us to prayer, we should rush with great Christian love to go to these services, and give our Lord God due honor and worship, at the same time we should think about our spiritual relationship with our God, and our path to our salvation. During these cycle of services we begin to realize how much our Lord God loves us, and wants us to be a part of His Kingdom. We can participate in His Kingdom in prayer, and we can behold His great spiritual beauty as we gaze around the Church and behold Him, as well as the opening arms of the Mother of God, the saints, the prophets, the apostles, and the martyrs all surrounding us with their prayers and intercession on our behalf, what a blessing! Then again preparations before the Divine Liturgy are spiritually necessary, and that is if when we will go to Holy Communion, we should consider speaking to our priest about going to Holy Confession. We also should fast from certain foods anticipation of receiving the Body and Blood of Christ, i.e. at the least, fast from meats on Wednesday and Friday, and all foods and liquids the morning of the liturgy unless these are deemed necessary for medical reasons.

  • Dictionary of Religious Terms
    IMPORTANT INFORMATION – Please Read! his lexicon began as a personal project to assist me in my efforts to learn more about my faith. All too often in my T readings I was coming across unfamiliar words, frequently in languages other than English. I began compiling a “small” list of terms and explanations to use as a reference. Since I was putting this together for my own use I usually copied explanations word for word, occasionally making a few modifications. As the list grew I began having trouble filling in some gaps. I turned to some friends for help. They in turn suggested this lexicon would be a good resource for the members of the Typikon and Ustav lists @yahoogroups.com and that list members maybe willing to help fill the gaps and sort out some other trouble spots. So, I present to you my lexicon. Here are some details: This draft version, as of 19 December 2001, contains 418 entries; Terms are given in transliterated Greek, Greek, Old Slavonic, Ukrainian, and English, followed by definitions/explanations; The terms are sorted alphabetically by “English”; The Greek transliteration is inconsistent as my sources use different systems; This document was created with MS Word 97 and converted to pdf with Adobe Acrobat 5.0 (can be opened with Acrobat Reader 4.0); Times New Roman is used for all texts except the Old Slavonic entries for which I used a font called IZHITSA; My sources are listed at the end of the lexicon; Permission has not been obtained from the authors so I ask that this lexicon remain for private use only.

  • University Microfilms International
    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in “sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. For any illustrations that cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by xerography, photographic prints can be purchased at additional cost and tipped into your xerographic copy.

  • Sunday Orthros ORDINARY Translation by Fr
    Sunday Orthros ORDINARY Translation by Fr. Nomikos Michael Vaporis (unless otherwise indicated) This book contains the parts of the Sunday Resurrectional Orthros service that normally do not change from week to week. The parts of the service that change according to the tone of the week in the eight-tone cycle, the gospel reading of the week in the eleven-gospel cycle, the festal seasons of the year and the saints and feasts of the day, are to be found elsewhere and inserted into this book. The pages of this book are printed on yellow paper to distinguish them from the pages that are to be inserted. The Sunday Resurrectional hymns based upon the tone of the week or the gospel of the week and the Katavasiae that are used at different times of the year, are in a book called the Anastasimatarion. The hymns for the saints and feasts are found in the complete Menaion. Hymns for the Lenten period are in the Triodion, and those for Pascha through All Saints Sunday are in the Pentecostarion. It is important to remember that the order of the Orthros service is affected by the particular day upon which it is being celebrated. Orthros services also differ depending on the day of the week, Lent, and certain feasts. In addition, parts of the Orthros service are regularly shortened for reasons of time. Therefore, this book focuses on the late standard practice of a regular Sunday Orthros service in the Greek Orthodox Church of the American Archdiocese.

  • After Nine Hundred Years
    $4-50 t AFTER NINE HUNDRED YEARS Yves Cougar, O.P. The traditional date of the beginning of the Oriental Schism is 1054, wheri the Papal Legate placed on the altar of Santa Sophia the Bull of Excommuni- cation of Michael Cerularius, the Pa- triarch of Constantinople. In this book, Fr, Congar shows that the seeds of this formal break were sown many cen- turies before when the creation of By- zantium as a Second Rome, the Crown- ing of Charlemagne as Roman Emperor, and the knife-thrust of Islam divided East and West politically. Further, in the course of the centuries, East and West had developed each its own cul- tural and intellectual milieu: divergent ways of thinking, a vastly different un- derstanding of the nature of The Church and an ever growing distrust and dis- dain. The painful experience of the Crusades further aggravated the wound- ed feelings of the East, so that there 1 grew up an "Estrangement* a com- plex of suspicion, distrust and separa- tism between the two parts of Christen- dom. It is in the acceptance of this Estrangement that Fr. Congar finds the essence of the Schism. The first steps toward the reconciliation so ardently desired by Pope John XXIII in the Ecu- menical Council he has announced must be taken in humble charity and continued on backfldp 3 1148 00458293?

  • Glossary of Theological Terms
    Glossary of Theological, Ethical and Liturgical Terms A a posteriori A term designating that kind of knowledge that issues from experience. See a priori. a priori Kant used the term a priori to designate all principles and judgments whose validity is not dependent in any way on sense impressions. Space, for instance, cannot be apprehended through the senses and being a necessary condition of experience it must be a priori. The opposite term is a posteriori: a term that logicians have applied to inductive reasoning (see Induction and Deduction) and in philosophy generally to the data of the mind that originate in the external world and are accepted as coming to it through the senses. a quo A phrase used by the medieval schoolmen to designate the principle or assumption or presupposition that is taken as the starting point of an argument, contradistinguished from the ad quem, its end or goal. Aaronic Benediction The familiar blessing that begins, "The Lord bless you and keep you." It is given the name "Aaronic" because it is the blessing God commanded Moses to give to his brother Aaron to speak to the people (Num. 6:24-26). abba (Aramaic, "Father") An address to God used by Jesus. The Aramaic word is found in Mark 14.36, Romans 8.15, and Galatians 4.6; it is a term both of a child's respectful relation to its father and of a confidential relation to an esteemed person. Abbess Feminine form of abbot, dating back to 6th cent. An abbess is elected by a community of nuns as its superior.
