(PALM) SUNDAY - the Journey of Our Lord Jesus Christ Into Jerusalem - the Feast of the Annuciation April 14 – April 20, 2019 WILLOW (PALM) SUNDAY - The Journey of our Lord Jesus Christ into Jerusalem - The Feast of the Annuciation FIRST ANTIPHON: I love the Lord, because He hears the voice of my supplication. Through the prayers of the Mother of God, O Saviour, save us. Because He has inclined His ear to me, I will call upon Him all my days. Through the prayers ... The pangs of death encircled me; the dangers of Hades caught me. Through the prayers ... I met with anguish and pain, I called upon the name of the Lord. Through the prayers ... Glory be to the Father, ... Only Begotten Son ... (P. 23) THIRD ANTIPHON: Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good, for His mercy endures forever. TROPAR (Tone 1): Before Your passion, Christ our God, You gave proof of the resurrection of all by raising Lazarus from the dead. Like the children we too, bear banners of victory and cry out to You, the conqueror of death: “Hosanna in the highest! Blessed is He Who comes in the name of the Lord.” Let the house of Israel say that He is good, and His mercy endures forever. Before Your passion ... Let the house of Aaron say that He is good, and His mercy endures forever. Before Your passion ... Let all those who fear the Lord say that He is good, and His mercy endures forever. Before Your passion ... WISDOM: Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord; We blessed You from the house of the Lord. The Lord is God and He has appeared to us. Before Your passion.... TROPAR (Tone 4): Buried with you in baptism, Christ our God, we have been made worthy of immortal life by Your resurrection. In praise we cry out: “Hosanna in the highest! Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!” Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit; now and for ever and ever. Amen! KONDAK (Tone 6): Seated on Your Throne in heaven, Christ our God, You received the praise of the angels, and riding the colt on earth, the shouts of the children. They cried out: “Blessed are You who came to restore Adam!” PROKIMEN (Tone 4): Blessed is He who comes in the name of the lord, the Lord is God and has appeared to us. Verse: Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good, for his mercy endures forever. EPISTLE: A reading from the Epistle of St. Paul to the Philippians (4:4-9) ALLELUIA VERSES: Sing to the Lord a new song, for He has done wondrous deeds. All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation by our God. GOSPEL: St.John 12:1-18 INSTEAD OF “It is truly right...”: O my soul, extol the Lord, who sat on a donkey. God the Lord has appeared to us; let us celebrate the feast, and let us rejoice and extol Christ. With palms and branches in hand, let us raise our voices to him in praise, saying: Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord our Saviour. COMMUNION HYMN: Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord, the Lord is God and appeared to us. Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!

  • Holy Week at Home
    Holy Week at Home Saint John’s Lutheran Church 587 Springfield Ave. Summit, NJ 07901 908.273.3846 | www.stjohnssummit.org Palm Sunday at Home Palm Sunday is the beginning of Holy Week. This is Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem. As he enters the city, people cut branches from the trees and laid them on the path before Jesus. They also took off their coats and laid them along the road too. Jesus rode not a big white horse but on a lowly donkey. He came to Jerusalem as the Messiah and our king, but as a humble king. As he rode into the city, all the people—even children—shouted “Hosanna in the highest! Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord!” Hosanna means “Lord, save us” but it also has a second meaning of praise. We are like the crowd—we praise Jesus, our King, and we ask Jesus, our Lord, to save us. Normally on Palm Sunday we all get palm branches and join in parading around the church. This year is different. We cannot join as a crowd in church, we cannot hand out palm branches, and we cannot form a procession. But we can still observe Palm Sunday! Here are a few ideas to observe Palm Sunday at home: • Collect Branches: In scripture it says the people cut branches, it doesn’t actually say palm branches. There is a long tradition of Christians cutting branches from trees and bushes near their own homes for Palm Sunday. In fact, until fairly recent times, many Christians around the world had no way to have palm branches shipped to them.

  • Paschal Troparion
    Paschal troparion From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search "Christ anesti" redirects here. For the greeting, see Paschal greeting. The Paschal troparion or Christos anesti (Greek: Χριστὸς ἀνέστη) is the characteristic hymn for the celebration of Pascha (Easter) in the Eastern Orthodox Church and those Eastern Catholic Churches which follow the Byzantine Rite. Like most troparia it is a brief stanza often used as a refrain between the verses of a Psalm, but is also used on its own. Its authorship is unknown. It is nominally sung in Tone Five, but often is sung in special melodies not connected with the Octoechos. It is often chanted thrice (three times in succession). [edit] Usage The troparion is first sung during the Paschal Vigil at the end of the procession around the church which takes place at the beginning of Matins. When all are gathered before the church's closed front door, the clergy and faithful take turns chanting the troparion, and then it is used as a refrain to a selection of verses from Psalms 67 and 117 (this is the Septuagint numbering; the KJV numbering is 68 and 118): Let God arise, let His enemies be scattered; let those who hate Him flee from before His face (Ps. 67:1) As smoke vanishes, so let them vanish; as wax melts before the fire (Ps. 67:2a) So the sinners will perish before the face of God; but let the righteous be glad (Ps. 67:2b) This is the day which the Lord hath made, let us rejoice and be glad in it.

Curly and pussy willow branches grace the gathering space as a sign of a new springtime; violets and purples reflect our yearning for conversion; the Cross in our sanctuary beckons us to follow. Our Mass is simpler and serene. Liturgy is really a conversation between God and his people. The Word is spoken and dwells among us. Our music and prayer inspires us, challenges us, reassures us, places before us the demands of discipleship, and caresses us with love as God speaks tenderly, yet boldly and we respond as we come to faith. We pay attention more devoutly; perhaps together we will listen and be converted again...reformed as God’s Holy People. We begin quietly and call out as we have for centuries, confident in the mercy of God, with the ancient Greek, “Kyrie eleison, Christe eleison”.
