We are blessed that you have chosen to participate in our worship service and pray that you will be both enlightened and inspired. We encourage you to ask questions and please contact our ministry leaders if you would like to volunteer your time and talents. Thank You! Guidelines for Holy Communion The Orthodox Church understands the Eucharist—the Lord’s Supper—to be primarily the paramount expression of Christian unity. The unfortunate reality of our modern day is that the various segments of Christendom are not unified with the historic Orthodox faith. While we fervently pray for this unity, as noted in every service of the Orthodox Church, we must offer a reminder that only baptized and chrismated Orthodox Christians may receive Holy Communion. All guests are invited to receive the blessed bread at the conclusion of our divine services. Elpis Philoptochos News November 11th—Board Meeting November 17th —More than a Meal at 3:00pm Visitation Committee Update: We are still looking for volunteers (men and women) to serve on the Visitation Committee for December 2019! Please contact Kristine Wagner for more details. Hymns of the Day FIRST ANTIPHON Through the intercessions of the Theotokos, Savior, save us!

GREEK PHONETICS: To fedron tis anastaseos kirigma ek tu angelu mathuse e tu Kiriu mathitrie ke tin progonikin apfasin aporripsase tis Apostolis kafhomena elegon eskilefte o thanatos i gerthi Christos o Theos thorumenos to kosmo to mega eleos. ENGLISH TEXT: Having learned the joyful tidings the angels told when they proclaimed the Resurrection, the women followers of the Lord did cast aside the ancient curse laid up on the forefathers. To the apostles, the women cried out with pride: Death has lost its armored might, and Christ God is risen from the dead, granting His great mercy to all the universe! Hymns of the Day APOLYTIKION FOR THE ANNUNCIATION: FOURTH MODE GREEK TEXT: Σήμερον τῆς σωτηρίας ἡμῶν τὸ κεφάλαιον, καὶ τοῦ ἀπ' αἰῶνος μυστηρίου ἡ φανέρωσις· ὁ Υἱὸς τοῦ Θεοῦ, Υἱὸς τῆς Παρθένου γίνεται, καὶ Γαβριὴλ τὴν χάριν εὐαγγελίζεται. Διὸ καὶ ἡμεῖς σὺν αὐτῷ τῇ Θεοτόκῳ βοήσωμεν· Χαῖρε Κεχαριτωμένη, ὁ Κύριος μετὰ σοῦ. GREEK PHONETICS: Simeron tis sotirias imon to kefaleon ke tu ap eonos mistiriu e fanerosis, o Ios to Theou, Ios tis Parthenu ginete ke Gavriil tin harin evangelizete. Thio ke e mis sin afto ti Theotoko voisomen, Haire ke haritomeni o Kirios meta Su. ENGLISH TEXT: Today is the beginning of our salvation and the revelation of the mystery before the Ages. The Son of God becomes the Son of the Virgin, and Gabriel proclaims the great grace. Therefore, with him let us cry out unto the Theotokos, “Rejoice, O highly favored one; the Lord is with you.” KONTAKION: FOURTH MODE (YOU WHO WERE LIFTED) Ὁ καθαρώτατος ναὸς τοῦ Σωτῆρος, ἡ πολυτίμητος παστὰς καὶ Παρθένος, τὸ ἱερὸν θησαύρισμα τῆς δόξης τοῦ Θεοῦ, σήμερον εἰσάγεται, ἐν τῷ οἴκῳ Κυρίου, τὴν χάριν συνεισάγουσα, τὴν ἐν Πνεύματι Θείῳ· ἣν ἀνυμνοῦσιν Ἄγγελοι Θεοῦ· Αὕτη ὑπάρχει σκηνὴ ἐπουράνιος. The Savior's most pure and immaculate temple, the very precious bridal chamber and Virgin, who is the sacred treasure of the glory of God, on this day is introduced into the House of the Lord, and with herself she brings the grace in the divine Spirit. She is extolled by the Angels of God. A heavenly tabernacle is she. Readings of the Day The Epistle: TWENTY-FIRST SUNDAY FR. SIMON: Let us be attentive. Prokeimenon. Fourth Mode. Psalm 103. READER: O Lord, Your works shall be magnified greatly; You made all things in wisdom. Verse: Bless the Lord, O my soul. O Lord my God, You are magnified exceedingly. FR. SIMON: Wisdom. READER: The reading is from Saint Paul's Letter to the Galatians (Gal 2:16-20) FR. SIMON: Let us be attentive. READER: Brethren, you know that a man is not justified by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, in order to be justified by faith in Christ, and not by works of the law, because by works of the law shall no one be justified. But if, in our endeavor to be justified in Christ, we ourselves were found to be sinners, is Christ then an agent of sin? Certainly not! But if I build up again those things which I tore down, then I prove myself a transgressor. For I through the law died to the law, that I might live to God. I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me; and the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. The Gospel: Luke 10:25-37 At that time, a lawyer stood up to put Jesus to the test, saying, "Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?" He said to him, "What is written in the law? How do you read?" And he answered, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself." And he said to him, "You have answered right; do this, and you will live." But he, desiring to justify himself, said to Jesus, "And who is my neighbor?" Jesus replied, "A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and he fell among robbers, who stripped him and beat him, and departed, leaving him half dead. Now by chance a priest was going down that road; and when he saw him he passed by on the other side. So likewise a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side. But a Samaritan, as he journeyed, came to where he was; and when he saw him, he had compassion, and went to him and bound up his wounds, pouring on oil and wine; then he set him on his own beast and brought him to an inn, and took care of him. And the next day he took out two denarii and gave them to the innkeeper, saying, 'Take care of him; and whatever more you spend, I will repay you when I come back.' Which of these three, do you think, proved neighbor to the man who fell among the robbers?" He said, "The one who showed mercy on him." And Jesus said to him, "Go and do likewise."

  • When God Alters Our Fate: Relational Freedom in Romans 5:1–11 and 8:18–39
    start page: 223 Stellenbosch eological Journal 2018, Vol 4, No 2, 223–241 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.17570/stj.2018.v4n2.a11 Online ISSN 2413-9467 | Print ISSN 2413-9459 2018 © Pieter de Waal Neethling Trust When God alters our fate: Relational freedom in Romans 5:1–11 and 8:18–39 Stephan Joubert University of the Free State, Bloemfontein, South Africa [email protected] Abstract Fate played an enormous role in the Ancient Mediterranean world. Fate was personified in numerous ancient deities such as the Keres, the Moirae, and Fortuna. At the same time Stoic views on fate, as a chain of causes, impacted hugely on the ancients’ general view on fate as an inexorable force which cannot be opposed, or whose direction and eventual outcomes cannot be changed. Against the backdrop, Paul’s understanding of the nature of God’s presence, actions and influence in the lives of believers in Romans 5:1–10 and 8:18–39 is discussed. Fate, in the sense of that which has been predetermined and written into the lives of individuals before birth, and which comes into existence in many different, fixed forms, or fate as a chain of causes, is never on Paul’s mind. God’s foreordained plan is not a predetermined, unalterable fate for each and every person over which they have no control or say whatsoever. Rather, God’s πρόθεσις (prothesis) relates to the salvation of all believers. God refuses to surrender his people to their fate, namely death and eternal destruction. He changes fate into destiny for all who believe in Christ.

    Anthropogony, Myth and Gender: Athenian Autochthony as a Case Study Di Yan Faculty of Classics University of Cambridge Murray Edwards College November 2018 This dissertation is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Preface Declaration This dissertation is the result of my own worK and includes nothing which is the outcome of work done in collaboration except as declared in the Preface and specified in the text.

Di Yan November 12, 2018 III Abstract This thesis, with its reflections on previous myth theories, especially structuralism in the 20th century and post-structuralist readings in recent decades, suggests a new approach for understanding GreeK mythology. TaKing Athenian autochthony as a case study, it argues that, instead of regarding GreeK myth as either a narrative system with one universal logic (structuralist reading) or as an ever-changing corpus without a unified concern (post-structuralist reading), it is more plausible to understand various myths as a dynamic system of social conversation, where individual authors and different genres respond to, argue with, or even compete against one another concerning core issues for a compelling explanation and understanding of the world.

  • Gendered Activity and Jesus's Saying Not to Worry
    Gendered Activity and Jesus’s Saying Not to Worry Janelle Peters University of Chicago Abstract The flowers’ activity in the saying of Jesus about anxiety indicates an interest in cloth production across the socio-economic spectrum. I demonstrate that wool-working is a central feature of the multiform tradition of this saying and that spinning in particular was associated with women. I further note that the activity of gazing at flowers was an activity that was connected with the iconography of the goddess Spes, the Roman personification of Hope. These two cues render the entire saying an exhortation toward the feminine. Key Terms Q 12:22b–28; Luke 12:22b–28; Matthew 6:25–30; P. Oxy. 655; Coptic Gospel of Thomas; saying of Jesus; flowers; spinning; carding; clothing; creation; women; Spes 1 Introduction Textile production appears in the history of reception of Jesus’s saying about worry, as Spenser’s lines from The Faerie Queene (1590) on the lily suggest: Yet neither spins, nor cards, ne cares nor frets, But to her mother nature all her care she lets.1 Certainly, the earliest traditions about Jesus’s words on anxiety centre on clothing and its manufacture. This article considers the examples from nature related to clothing that comprise Jesus’s exhortation not to worry found in Q, Luke, Matthew, P. Oxy. 655 (the Greek version of Gos. 1 See Petty-Fitzmaurice (1830, 28). Neotestamentica 50.1 (2016) 35–52 © New Testament Society of Southern Africa 36 J.

  • Butterflies from the Ujung Kulon National Park, Indonesia
    Journal of the Lepidopterists' Society 41(1). 1987. 29-40 BUTTERFLIES FROM THE UJUNG KULON NATIONAL PARK, INDONESIA T. R. NEW! Department of Zoology, La Trobe University, Bundoora, Victoria 3083, Australia' M. B. BUSH Department of Geography, University of Hull, Humberside, United Kingdom AND H. K. SUDARMAN Museum Zoologicum Bogoriensis, Bogor, Indonesia ABSTRACT. Butterflies found on the Ujung Kulon Peninsula (85 spp.) and Pulau Peucang (36 spp.) in 1984 are listed and compared with the fauna of the Krakatau Islands. Many species are limited to particular vegetation types or ecotones, and maintenance of habitat diversity appears vital to ensure continued diversity in the national park. At present, management for grazing by large mammals and limited human access are practical conservation measures for butterflies. Additional key words: Java, surveys, conservation, biogeography. The Ujung Kulon Peninsula and adjacent islands comprise the west­ ernmost region of Java, Indonesia. Since the large-scale inundations by tsunamis associated with the eruption of Krakatau in 1883, this region has been largely free from human activities. It is now a national park to which access is strictly controlled and monitored, and in which scientific work may be undertaken only by permit. Land access is difficult, and most visitors arrive by boat from towns on the NW coast of Java and stay predominantly on Pulau Peucang (Fig. 1). The main purpose of this park, which comprises some 30,000 ha, is to foster the last remaining population of the Javan rhinoceros, Rhinoceros sondaicus sondaicus Desmarest, but the relatively undisturbed forest and other vegetation types render it one of the most significant areas in Java for the conservation of native fauna.

  • APPENDIX a Hesiod, Works and Days, Lines 1-201
    Theogony • 105 APPENDIXA Hesiod, Works and Days, Lines 1-201 The Works and Days is a didactic poem of 828 lines, most of which are concerned with advice and instruction on agriculture, seafaring, and moral and practical conduct. These exhortations are addressed to Hesiod's brother Perses, who is said to have cheated Hesiod out of his fair share of his in­ heritance, and at times to the "kings" whom Perses bribed in his evil plan. All of the poem is of great interest, but only the first 201 lines are con­ cerned with mythical topics. First is the myth of Prometheus and Pandora (47-105), a revised version of the same story told in the Theogony, and sec­ ond is the myth of the Five Races, a history of the devolution of mankind from its original symbiotic bliss to its present miserable condition. Muses of Pieria,° who glorify with song, Come, tell of your father Zeus in song; Thanks to him mortal men are both famous and obscure, known and unknown, by the will of great Zeus. easily he makes one strong, easily he crushes the strong, 5 easily he lowers the high and raises the lowly, easily straightens the crooked and withers the proud, high-thundering Zeus whose home is most high. hear me, see and listen, straighten decrees with justice; and I would tell the truth to Perses. 10 There was not one birth of Eris,° but on earth there are two; who knows the one would praise her, but the other is to be blamed; they have opposite minds.
