October 29 2017[1] Saint Rafka Maronite Catholics of the East in the Upstate! 1215 S. Highway 14, Greer, SC 29650 864.469.9119 saintrafka.org [email protected] Saint Rafka Maronite Church is a Catholic Parish of the Antiochene Syriac Maronite Church, Eparchy of Saint Maron of Brooklyn, NY, Most Rev. Gregory John Mansour, Bishop, 109 Remsen Street, Brooklyn, NY, 11201, 718.237.9913. [email protected] Rev. Bartholomew Leon, October 29, 2017 Administrator, [email protected] Pastor’s Advisory Council Ramiz Askar, Marlene Saad Secretary Richard Sleiman, Chairman Paul Sleiman, Linda Wickett, 7th Sunday of Holy Cross Jack Yacu Christ the King Finance Committee George Azan, Joseph Chebeir, Chairman This is the last Sunday of the liturgical Tony Sleiman, Paula Howard-Casby cycle of the year. What is it that first attracts our attention is the Gospel of this Administration last Sunday of the year? It is of the Richard, Wickett, Financial Secretary awesome Last Judgment in Matthew’s Gospel! Interestingly, here, the end of the Joseph Chebeir, Scott Herr, liturgical cycle on this Sunday, Administrative Assistants to the Pastor corresponds and parallels in the Gospel with the end of the world. From one perspective this projection seems a deliberate attempt by the Church to awaken in her children the fear of God. Yet from another perspective the emphasis of the Church on this Sunday – and in a Continued next page more positive way – goes out to show that the final victory, at the end, will be the Triumph of Compassion, and of the Compassionate Ones: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven (Mt.5: 3- 10). This lesson is also reflected in the exhortation of Saint Paul to his fellow – persecuted – Roman Christians: “Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep .. If your enemy is hungry feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink.. do not be conquered by evil but conquer evil with good.” (See also Matthew 5:3-10). Here the final triumph is shown as the triumph of goodness over evil. Clearly we are being called to become the human channels of God’s goodness through compassion – even when justice might demand otherwise. For it is when we forgive that we also receive our forgiveness; and when we turn a compassionate face towards our fellow human beings – even when persecuted – God’s wonderful and loving image becomes imprinted and sealed into our human nature – his redeemed creation. The end-victory, therefore, is the Victory of Love – as our crosses of human torments are fused and transformed – through acts of loving-forgiveness and compassion, with the balm tree of the healing Cross of our Lord – that Victorious Cross of Light and of eternal Joy.

Abouna’s Dear Parishioners and Friends, A busy but productive week at Saint Rafka! I took a “staycation” from hospital work to get a number of things accomplished at the church office. Since the end of the liturgical year is upon up, I figured it was a good time to clear the desk and start the new year with a clean desk top! In spite of a lot of calls back to the hospital and other events, I did a lot of work. I was quite proud of myself! Not everything got accomplished, but the major work was done. As for resting, that will come at another time! I want to thank the members of Knights of Columbus Council 15519 who prepared the Pancake Breakfast last weekend. They cooked a great meal and it was nice to enjoy the meal with the members of the community. Thanks to all who supported our Knights. They are a great blessing to our community. Please continue to pray for all those who are sick in our community and for those who are acting as caregivers. May God give the sick the ability to suffer with dignity and be healed. May He give strength and patience to those who care for them. Pray for our Patriarch who is in the United States making a pastoral visit to our people and an official visit as a head of state to Washington, DC. May his visit among us be fruitful to the people of Lebanon and the Middle East. Have a great weekend! See you in Church! November 1 Salaam! All Saint’s Day Ab.

  • Los Viajes Del Caballero Inglés John Breval a España Y Portugal: Novedades Arqueológicas Y Epigráficas De 1726
    Los viajes del caballero inglés John Breval a España y Portugal: novedades arqueológicas y epigráficas de 1726 ALICIA M.ª CANTO* Amicus Plato, sed magis amica veritas (Arist., Nicom. I, 4; Cerv., Quixot., 2.51) RESUMENLa accidentada vida del caballero John D. Breval (c. 1680-1738), clasicista del Tri- nity College de Cambridge, conocido literato inglés y preceptor de nobles en el «Grand Tour», incluyó una etapa como militar y hombre de confianza del Duque de Marlborough. Como militar y preceptor, viajó al sur de Portugal y España en tres ocasiones, entre 1708 y 1716. A su paso por muchas ciudades del Alentejo y Andalucía tomó múltiples notas sobre sus anti- güedades y copió 49 inscripciones romanas, la mayor parte de las cuales por autopsia. En 1726, al publicar en Londres sus Remarks on several parts of Europe (dedicado al futuro conde de Cholmondeley), incluyó al final sus notas ibéricas, acompañadas de un nutrido aparato de textos antiguos y bibliografía de su época. En este trabajo presentamos, además de algu- nas novedades biográficas sobre el autor, la traducción al español de los citados capítulos, acompañada de nuestro estudio crítico. Los epígrafes y los detalles sobre ellos que transmite Breval resultan ser un valioso testimonio para nuevas lecturas, consideración de falsos como auténticos, etc. Nuestra investigación sirve, pues, para devolver a John D. Breval su buen cré- dito como transmisor de inscripciones romanas (damnatus por Theodor Mommsen y Emil Hübner en el CIL II), y junto con él también el del gran humanista portugués Andrés de Resende, muchas veces tachado de falsario, a nuestro juicio injustamente.

The articles of this .issue do not quite cover all the points of interest which have occurred during the last year, consequently a brief foreword is required. First of all we are bound to express our great debt of gratitude to Very Reverend Father Guilly for his deep interest in our welfare. Father Guilly was once a boy in a Jesuit College and later had the happiness of instructing the young in another. He has therefore, apart from a theoretical understanding of school problems, practical experience gained at each side of the master's desk. This understanding and experience he has put at the disposal of the College. Last year, Fathers fresh from England came to join the staff.
