  • The Third Sunday of Easter We Are Witnesses to the Resurrection

    The Third Sunday of Easter We Are Witnesses to the Resurrection

    The Third Sunday of Easter We Are Witnesses to the Resurrection During these weeks after Easter, the Church highlights various aspects of the Easter Mystery for us so that we can grow in our understanding of Jesus’ resurrection and its meaning for our lives. Witnesses to the Resurrection: In today’s first reading, taken from the Acts of the Apostles, the Liturgy describes how the resurrection of Jesus transformed the lives of his first followers. The apostles, who had failed miserably when Jesus was arrested and handed over to be crucified, have now become bold witnesses of his resurrection. They are no longer afraid to proclaim their faith in Jesus because they now believe that he is risen and alive. And so they say to the world: We are witnesses of these things as is the Holy Spirit whom God has given to those who obey him. The apostles have become witnesses to the resurrection, and they testify to the world that Jesus is risen and alive. They testify that God’s power is stronger than the power of death. They testify that God has vanquished the power of sin through Jesus’ death and resurrection. Being a witness to the resurrection is an apt description of what it means to be a Catholic and a Christian today. As followers of Christ, it is our mission to testify to the world that the crucified Christ is risen and alive. It is our mission to testify that the power of Christ’s resurrection is stronger than the power of sin and death.

    The Washing of the Feet During the Evening Mass on Thursday of the Lord’S Supper ______

    The Washing of the Feet during the Evening Mass on Thursday of the Lord’s Supper _______________________________________________________________ On the authority of Pope Francis, the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments [CDWDS] issued a Decree and a Commentary on 6 January 2016 changing the rubric for the Washing of the Feet during the Evening Mass on Thursday of the Lord’s Supper. Here is the English rubric with the edits: The men who have been chosen are Those who have been chosen from amongst the people of God are led by the ministers to seats prepared in a suitable place. Then the Priest (removing the chasuble if necessary) goes to each one, and, with the help of the ministers, pours water over each one’s feet and then dries them. By the action of the Apostolic See, those chosen for the foot washing is open to all members of the People of God – boys and girls, women and men. Those chosen for the foot washing reflect all who make up the People of God, the disciples of the Lord. In the account of the Last Supper in the Gospel of John, the Good News proclaimed during the Holy Thursday Evening Mass, Jesus washes the feet of an unspecified number of disciples. Just as the “beloved disciple” is nameless so that it may be, in fact, every hearer who is the beloved one, the “disciples” are all of us as well. This mandatum , this love command to be of service, to be servants is given to each one of the baptized.
  • 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

    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.

Like the Romance and Germanic peoples, they are related by area and culture, not so much by blood. Today there are thirteen different Slavic groups divided into three blocs, Eastern, Southern and Western. These include the Russians, Poles, Czechs, Ukrainians, Byelorussians, Serbians,Croatians, Macedonians, Slovenians, Bulgarians, Kashubians, Albanians and Slovakians. Although the Lithuanians, Estonians and Latvians are of Baltic tribes, we are including some of their customs as they are similar to those of their Slavic neighbors. Slavic Runes were called "Runitsa", "Cherty y Rezy" ("Strokes and Cuts") and later, "Vlesovitsa".
  • A Walk Through the Mass: a Step-By-Step Explanation

    A Walk Through the Mass: a Step-By-Step Explanation

    A Walk Through the Mass: A Step-by-Step Explanation Catholics know what is going to happen next. One of the basic, distinctive marks of our way of praying is ritual: We do things over and over. When the priest says, “The Lord be with you,” without any thought or hesitation the congregation responds, “And with your Spirit.” The priest says, “Let us pray,” and the congregation stands up. Our daily lives have their rituals also: There are set ways of greeting people, eating, responding to a text. And when we are accustomed to a certain way of doing things we seldom ask why we do it that way. In the Eucharist, too, we have many ritual actions which we perform without asking why. What is the Mass or Liturgy? A good way to describe the Mass is to say that it is Holy Thursday, Good Friday and Easter Sunday made present today in ritual. It is not merely a meal which reminds us of the Last Supper, or a Passion play which helps recall Good Friday, or a Sunrise Service which celebrates the Lord’s Resurrection. The basic “shape” of the ritual of the Mass can be described as a meal. This is not to say it is “just another meal” or that we are ignoring the Mass as sacrifice. Not at all. The point is, the shape of the Mass, even when viewed as sacrifice, is that of a meal. When friends gather for a meal, they sit and talk: Eventually they move to the table, say grace, pass the food and eat and drink, and finally take their leave and go home.
