4 MESSAGE OF THE ECUMENICAL PATRIARCH

Your Eminence Archbishop Demetrios of America, beloved brother and concelebrant of our Humil- ity in the Holy Spirit, grace be to your Eminence and peace from God.

We readily respond to your respectfully formulated request to address the devout fock of your Holy Archdiocese upon hearing the intention of your Holy Archdiocese to publish a yearbook for 2017. Te theme of the recent Clergy-Laity Congress of the Holy Archdiocese of America convened in Nashville and marking the ecclesiastical path for the following two years is not only timely, but multifaceted: “You are the voice of Christ in a changing world.”

Te fact that the world around us is changing is without a doubt a most ancient reality. Furthermore, the rapid technological development, the facilitation of the circulation of ideas and material goods, as well as the desire for wealth and the subsequent senseless exploitation of natural resources, constitute factors that contribute to the speedy change of social and environmental conditions within the frame- work of which modern man operates.

On the other hand, the One “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty” (Rev. 1:8) is the only stable and unchanging reality throughout the course of human history, the only safe ground, and the rock on which one can and should build his home so that it may remain intact from the whirl- wind of various storms precipitated by either our personal life or by general critical conditions.

For man to turn to Christ, however, to invoke Him, he must know Him for “how are men to call upon him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without a preacher?” (Rom. 10:14). Terefore, in the medley of nations and the pluralism of ideologies and proclamations of the modern world, moreover in the multinational country of the United States of America, it is necessary that we follow the command of the Lord to “go and make disciples of all nations” (see Matt. 28:19).

Certainly, for this mission to succeed, it is necessary that the Christian who will undertake this task fulflls this calling. It is also useful to remind ourselves that the name “Christian” means exactly a person belonging to Christ, as St. Paul also says: “You are not your own; you were bought with a price” (1 Cor. 6:19-20). Tus, according to the standards of that time, Christians are slaves under the absolute mastery of Christ and they therefore must obey His commands entirely. Only then can they be “the light of the world” (Matthew 5:14), “a lamp shining in a dark place” (see 2 Peter 1:19), and bearers of the message of the Gospel in the world. Furthermore, the Lord Himself confrmed to us that “apart from Me you can do nothing” (John 15:5), and He reviled the Pharisees by saying “they preach, but do not practice” (Matt. 23:3).

Terefore, our efort to respond to the command of the Lord to do missionary work in a world that has become unstable due to various calamities, should begin with ourselves, so that, when we are in the position to declare along with St. Paul that “we have the mind of Christ” (1 Cor. 2:16), the Lord shall repeat to us and to His Holy Apostles: “He who hears you hears me, and he who rejects you rejects me” (Luke 10:16).

In conclusion, wishing you strength in these challenges so that you may grow stronger by each passing day, we bless the publication of the Yearbook, bestowing our Patriarchal blessings upon our beloved Archbishop and the devout clergy and the Christ-loving fock of the Holy Archdiocese of America, praying to the Lord of the vineyard that He may render you worthy laborers and “a light to the nations” (Is. 42:6) for the glory of His holy name.

5 MESSAGE OF THE ARCHBISHOP

As the Father has sent me, so I send you. (John 20:21)

Beloved Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

We gladly welcome the 2017 edition of the Yearbook of our Holy Archdiocese as it ofers refection on a year of blessings and leads us in anticipation of the great and won- drous works of God in the year ahead. Among the many blessings of 2016 in the service of our Lord was our 43rd Biennial Clergy-Laity Congress in Nashville, Tennessee. Our time of worship, fellowship, evaluation and planning was guided by the theme of the Congress: “You are the Voice of Christ in a Changing World.”

Tis theme is important to our sacred work as we begin 2017. As you review and use the Yearbook and survey our ministry at all levels of our Holy Archdiocese, it is evident that we are the voice of Christ. Our faith, our worship, and our witness afrm that He is our life and hope. He is the foundation of our work. He is our source of strength. He is our salvation.

Christ sends us as His voice into a world that continues to change. At the beginning of each calendar year we are reminded of this rapid change as we survey the events of the last twelve months. In relation to our Holy Archdiocese, we are called as Orthodox Christians to meet this change with grace and truth. We do this as we commit to the timeless mission of the people of God to live and proclaim the Gospel. We also do this as seen in the breadth and substance of our ministries, and through expanding and adapt- ing our work to meet contemporary needs. We are sent by Christ with a message of hope and life and with the wisdom to navigate a changing and challenging world while sharing His grace in efective ways.

As we greet the new year and welcome this new edition of the Yearbook, may we also afrm our commitment to be the voice of Christ in all that we do. Certainly, we will be His voice through the witness of our worship; but let us also be His voice through the growth and quality of our ministry to families, children, youth, and senior adults. Let us be His voice through the quality of our educational work and our educational resources. Let us be His voice in our outreach efort to reach the unchurched. Let us be His voice in a combination of traditional, unique, and inspiring ways so that others will fnd life and peace in Him.

With paternal love in Christ,

†DEMETRIOS Archbishop of America

6 MESSAGE OF THE ARCHBISHOP

Καθώς ἀπέσταλκέν με ὁ Πατήρ, κἀγώ πέμπω ὑμᾶς. (Ἰωάν. 20:21)

Προσφιλεῖς Ἀδελφοί καί Ἀδελφές ἐν Χριστῷ,

Καλωσορίζουμε μέ χαρά τήν ἔκδοση 2017 τοῦ Ἡμερολογίου τῆς Ἱερᾶς Ἀρχιεπισκοπῆς μας καθώς ἀναλογιζόμεθα τό πλῆρες εὐλογιῶν ἔτος πού πέρασε καί προσδοκοῦμε τά μεγάλα καί θαυμαστά ἔργα τοῦ Θεοῦ στό ἔτος πού ἀκολουθεῖ. Μεταξύ τῶν πολλῶν εὐλογιῶν τοῦ 2016 τῆς ἐν Κυρίῳ διακονίας μας, ἦτο καί ἡ 43η Κληρικολαϊκή Συνέλευση, ἡ ὁποία ἔλαβε χώρα στήν πόλη Nashville, Tennessee. Ἡ προσφορά τῆς λατρείας μας πρός τόν Θεό, ἡ μεταξύ μας ἀδελφοσύνη, τό ἔργο ἀξιολογήσεως καί προγραμματισμοῦ τῶν δράσεών μας, ὅλα κινήθηκαν σύμφωνα μέ τίς ἐπιταγές τοῦ θέματος τῆς Συνελεύσεως: «Εἶσθε ἡ Φωνή τοῦ Χριστοῦ σ’ ἕναν Μεταβαλλόμενο Κόσμο».

Τό θέμα αὐτό εἶναι σημαντικό στό ἱερό ἔργο μας καθώς ἀρχίζει τό ἔτος 2017. Ὅπως φυλλομετροῦμε τίς σελίδες καί χρησιμοποιοῦμε τό Ἡμερολόγιο καί ἐξετάζουμε τήν διακονία μας σέ ὅλα τά ἐπίπεδα τῆς Ἱερᾶς Ἀρχιεπισκοπῆς, διαπιστώνουμε ὅτι πράγματι εἴμεθα ἡ φωνή τοῦ Χριστοῦ. Ἡ πίστη, ἡ λατρεία καί ἡ μαρτυρία μας ἐπιβεβαιώνουν ὅτι Ἐκεῖνος εἶναι ἡ ζωή καί ἡ ἐλπίδα μας. Ἐκεῖνος εἶναι ἡ βάση τοῦ ἔργου μας. Ἐκεῖνος εἶναι ἡ πηγή τῆς δυνάμεώς μας. Ἐκεῖνος εἶναι ἡ σωτηρία μας.

Ὁ Χριστός μᾶς ἀποστέλλει μέ σκοπό νά εἴμεθα ἡ φωνή Του σ’ἕναν κόσμο ὁ ὁποῖος συνεχίζει νά μεταβάλλεται. Στήν ἀρχή ἑκάστου ἡμερολογιακοῦ ἔτους συνειδητοποιοῦμε αὐτή τή ραγδαία ἀλλαγή καθώς ἀναλογιζόμεθα τά γεγονότα τῶν τελευταίων δώδεκα μηνῶν. Καλούμεθα ὡς Ὀρθόδοξοι Χριστιανοί, μέλη τῆς Ἱερᾶς Ἀρχιεπισκοπῆς, νά ἀντιμετωπίσουμε αὐτή τήν ἀλλαγή μέ χάρη καί ἀλήθεια. Καί αὐτό πράττουμε προσηλωμένοι στήν διαχρονική ἀποστολή τῶν ἀνθρώπων τοῦ Θεοῦ νά βιώνουν καί νά κηρύττουν τό Εὐαγγέλιο. Αὐτό ἐπίσης πράττουμε ὅπως γίνεται φανερό στό εὖρος καί στήν οὐσία τῶν διακονιῶν μας, καί στήν ἐπέκταση καί προσαρμογή τοῦ ἔργου μας πρός κάλυψη τῶν συγχρόνων ἀναγκῶν. Ὁ Χριστός μᾶς ἀποστέλλει μέ μήνυμα ἐλπίδος καί ζωῆς καί μέ τήν σοφία νά διαπλέουμε τήν θάλασσα ἑνός μεταβαλλομένου καί προκλητικοῦ κόσμου, ἐνῶ ταυτοχρόνως μετέχουμε τῆς χάριτος τοῦ Θεοῦ, μέ ἀποτελεσματικό τρόπο.

Καθώς χαιρετίζουμε τό νέο ἔτος καί καλοσωρίζουμε τήν παροῦσα νέα ἔκδοση τοῦ Ἡμερολογίου τοῦ 2017, ἄς ἐπιβεβαιώσουμε τήν ἀφοσίωσή μας στό νά εἴμεθα ἡ φωνή τοῦ Χριστοῦ σέ ὅλα ὅσα πράττουμε. Βεβαίως, θά γίνουμε ἡ φωνή τοῦ Χριστοῦ διά τῆς λατρείας μας, ἀλλά ἄς εἴμεθα ἐπίσης ἡ φωνή Του διά τῆς αὐξήσεως και ποιότητος τῆς διακονίας μας πρός τίς οἰκογένειες, τά παιδιά, τούς νέους καί τούς ἡλικιωμένους. Ἄς εἴμεθα ἡ φωνή Του διά τῆς ποιότητος τῶν ἐκπαιδευτικῶν μας ἔργων καί τῶν ἐκπαιδευτικῶν μας πηγῶν. Ἄς εἴμεθα ἡ φωνή Του στήν προσπάθειά μας νά πλησιάσουμε αὐτούς πού ἔχουν ἀπομακρυνθεῖ ἀπό τήν Ἐκκλησία. Ἄς εἴμεθα ἡ φωνή Του συνδυάζοντας παραδοσιακούς, μοναδικούς καί ἐμπνευσμένους τρόπους ἔτσι ὥστε οἱ ἄνθρωποι γύρω μας νά βροῦν τήν ἐν Χριστῷ ζωή καί εἰρήνη.

Μέ πατρική ἐν Χριστῷ ἀγάπη,

+ ὁ Ἀρχιεπίσκοπος Ἀμερικῆς Δημήτριος

The Metropolis of Denver stretches across one-third of the continental United States. The ﬁfty parishes that comprise the Metropolis are distributed among twelve entire states and the western halves of two others. These states span the less-densely populated plains, mountain and great south- western regions between the Midwest and the West Coast. At roughly the geographic center of this vast, 1.3 million square-mile region is the city of Denver, Colorado. The Me- tropolis Center is set upon a hill in the “Mile High City.” The Metropolis Center includes a chapel where visitors come daily to pray, a library and several meeting rooms. The Cen- ter is open daily, Monday through Friday.

(Above) Each January over 750 people participate in the Annual GOYA Basketball Tournament. With His Eminence Metropolitan Isaiah presiding, 22 clergy- men and over 1,100 faithful gathered for Divine Liturgy on Sunday morning of the 2016 tournament weekend in Dallas, Texas.

Eminence, Metropolitan Isaiah, blesses the new church location of St. Spyridon Mission Parish in Loveland, Colorado.

(Above left) Camp Emmanuel Convenes each summer to cultivate the seeds of our Orthodox faith in the hearts of our youth, and to nurture strong Christian friendships and relationships among them. Staff and clergy and campers travel from throughout the Metropolis to participate in this ministry.

Parishioners from the parish of The Holy Trinity in Dallas, Texas process around the church on Holy Friday.

155 GREEK ORTHODOX MILITARY CHAPLAINS

Military Ordinary: His Eminence Metropolitan Isaiah of Denver (303) 333-7794

Military and Veterans Administration Endorsing Agent: Father William J. Bartz (317) 733-3033

The Greek Orthodox chaplain is a priest who provides the Holy Myster- ies to Orthodox Christians and who additionally provides pastoral ministry to people in all walks of life. Some priests serve full-time as chaplains in the armed forces, whereas other parish priests have assumed additional responsibilities as chaplains at Veteran’s Administration hospitals, with local police forces, at prisons, and in hospitals. One of the most signifcant features of chaplaincy activity is ministry to individuals other than Orthodox Christians, and the witness of our Orthodox faith among all Americans.

ARMED FORCES CHAPLAINS Armed Forces chaplains are highly-qualifed priests who (1) integrate the roles of clergy and commissioned offcer, (2) care for Orthodox Christians while providing for the free exercise of religion by all personnel, and (3) understand the realities of military life. VETERANS ADMINISTRATION CHAPLAINS Veterans Administration chaplains are priests serving within VA facilities who are aware of the spiritual and moral dimensions which often arise from the anxieties, problems and fears which accompany illness and disabilities. These chaplains are also sensitive to the variety of religious and cultural backgrounds of the VA patients to whom ministry is provided. POLICE CHAPLAINS Police chaplains minister to members of law enforcement agencies having spiritual, psychological or emotional problems. Specific duties include: crisis intervention, death notifcation, grief counseling, memorial services, victim and witness assistance, confdential pastoral care, stress management, spiritual guidance, marriage and family guidance.

Since 1988, Project Mexico has been involving young people in the alleviation of suffering through building homes for Mexico’s poor in the Tijuana area. Over 11,000 volunteers from across the United States, Canada, and 11 foreign countries, have helped Project Mexico build more than 290 homes for impoverished families in desperate need who often live in dirt floor shacks. In 1996, St. Innocent Orphanage was established as an extension of the Project Mexico ministry, to provide a loving and caring home to orphaned, abandoned, and abused adolescent boys. An award-winning institution, St. Innocent Orphanage is the only facility in Tijuana dedicated to adolescent boys, and one of only four in all of Mexico. Project Mexico & St. Innocent Orphanage has been envisioned, designed, built, and operated by the combined efforts of Orthodox Christians from all jurisdictions. The ministry operates under the blessing of the Assembly of Canonical Orthodox Bishops of North and Central America. There is still a great deal of work to be done!

269 THE CALENDAR OF THE ORTHODOX CHURCH Lewis Patsavos, Ph.D. Professor of Canon Law Holy Cross School of Theology

ORTHODOX EASTER The determination of the date of Easter is governed by a computation based on the vernal equinox and the phase of the moon. According to the ruling of the First Ecumenical Synod in 325, Easter Sunday should fall on the Sunday which follows the frst full moon after the vernal equinox. If the full moon happens to fall on a Sunday, Easter is observed the following Sunday. The day taken to be the invariable date of the vernal equinox is March 21. Herein lies the frst difference in the determination of Easter between the Orthodox Church and the other Christian Churches. The Orthodox Church continues to base its calculations for the date of Easter on the Julian Calendar, which was in use at the time of the First Ecumenical Synod. As such, it does not take into consideration the number of days which have since then accrued due to the progressive inaccuracy of the Julian Calendar. In other words, a difference of 13 days exists between the accepted date for the vernal equinox then and now. In the West, this discrepancy was addressed in the 16th century through the adoption of the Gregorian Calendar, which adjusted the Julian Calendar still in use by all Christians at that time. The other difference in the determination of Easter between the Orthodox and other Christian Churches concerns the date of Passover. Jews originally celebrated Passover on the frst full moon following the vernal equinox. Christians, therefore, celebrated Easter on the frst Sunday after the frst full moon following the vernal equinox. After the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 A.D. and the other tragic events which gave rise to the dispersal of the Jews, Passover sometimes preceded the vernal equinox. This was occasioned by the dependence of the dispersed Jews upon local pagan calendars for the calculation of Passover. As a consequence, most Christians eventually ceased to regulate the observance of Easter by the Jewish Passover. Their purpose, of course, was to preserve the original practice of celebrating Easter following the vernal equinox. The full article on the Orthodox Calendar and suggestions for further reading can be found online at www.goarch.org/ourfaith/ourfaith7070.
