I embrace you as if you were already there and unite myself wholly to you. Never permit me to be separated from you. Amen. OUR MOTHER OF PERPETUAL HELP SOCIETY Our Mother of Perpetual Help Society (OMPHS) was organized 30 years ago by then Pastor Father Teodore Humanitzki and parishioner Mary Felack. The goal of OMPHS as written in the original by-laws is “The Society is to maintain contact and remember the parishioners of St. Nicholas Church who are sick or homebound.” Since 1990, members of OMPHS have worked diligently to meet this goal. Activities of OMPHS provided to the sick, home bound and nursing home residents include: in-person visits when conditions allow; sending cards for birthdays, special holidays and simply to let our parishioners know they are in our prayers and thoughts; making phone calls; celebrating with a small party for 90th and 100th birthdays for all parishioners; annually sponsoring a Liturgy, and when possible, a birthday luncheon for all members of the parish who are at least 90 years old in the calendar year; providing small gifts at Christmas and Easter; Christmas caroling and offering Liturgy during the Christmas Season and at Easter; and any other way of remembering and maintaining contact with sick or home bound parishioners of the St Nicholas parish. Anyone, young or old, wanting to be involved in this ministry is welcome to join to send cards, make phone calls or make in person visits. For more information, please contact Donna Getman at 518 315 7924 or Rose Mary Wargo at 518 951 5295. 1.

Thank you from Joseph’s House & Shelter - … I wanted to thank your community for the consecutive support you have given to our Shelter. I am contacting to you today to not only thank you but to ask if there is any way you can do a drive for personal care items for our families at the Shelter. Our families requested if I can find them items like shampoo, body wash, baby wipes, and deodorant. Without your previous donations of items like these our families would have an extremely tough time keeping up with their hygiene needs. On behalf of myself and Joseph's House we want to thank your parish for all of your help in the past and I look forward to hearing from you soon. 10. BAPTISMS - Holy Mysteries (Sacraments) of Initiation are normally administered on the Sunday nearest to the 40th day after the birth of the child. Father or Deacon will conduct a special baptismal preparation session. This session is for all expectant parents, the Godparents and possibly grand-parents. Parents must be registered and active members of the parish. It is normal that a saint’s name be chosen for the child. ELIGIBILITY FOR GODPARENT - One sponsor must be a practicing Catholic, attend Liturgy regularly, receive the Sacraments and fulfill all obligations and financial support to their parish, attested to by their pastor. We the community of St. Nicholas Ukrainian Catholic Church are of Eastern rite and Byzantine tradition. We are committed to sharing our faith, tradition, and God's Light by embracing & living out God's two greatest commandments: a) love God with all your heart, soul, and mind b) love your neighbor as yourself, Our church embodies the Ukrainian spirit, culture, & heritage while welcoming all races, ethnicities, & nationalities. 1.

Nathaniel Ogden Kidd, B.A., M.Div A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School, Marquette University, in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Milwaukee, Wisconsin December, 2018 ABSTRACT IMAGINING DEMONS IN POST-BYZANTINE JERUSALEM: JOHN OF DAMASCUS AND THE CONSOLIDATION OF CLASSICAL CHRISTIAN DEMONOLOGY The Rev. Nathaniel Ogden Kidd, B.A., M.Div Marquette University, 2018 This dissertation traces the consolidation of a classical Christian framework for demonology in the theological corpus of John of Damascus (c. 675 – c. 750), an eighth century Greek theologian writing in Jerusalem. When the Damascene sat down to write, I argue, there was a great variety of demonological options available to him, both in the depth of the Christian tradition, and in the ambient local imagination. John’s genius lies first in what he chose not to include, but second in his ability to synthesize a minimalistic demonology out of a complex body of material and integrate it into a broader theological system.

  • Issues in Eucharistic Praying in East in West
    Issues in Eucharistic Praying in East in West Essays in Liturgical and Theological Analysis Edited by Maxwell E. Johnson A PUEBLO BOOK Liturgical Press Collegeville, Minnesota www.litpress.org Michael Zheltov XI. The Moment of Eucharistic Consecration in Byzantine Thought The problem of the epiclesis, its meaning, and its importance—or, alternatively, expendability—for the consecration of bread and wine during a Eucharistic prayer has long been a highly polemical issue.1 Despite their differences, scholars and theologians have often taken for granted that it was the Byzantine Church that always believed in a consecratory power of the epiclesis. Indeed, from the fourth century on (i.e., from the very starting point of the development of the Byz- antine liturgy), the Byzantine Eucharistic prayers contained explicit epicleses with strong consecratory statements. In this article I will demonstrate, however, that, while the Byzan- tines undoubtedly were very concerned about the epiclesis read dur- ing their Eucharistic liturgy,2 its mere existence did not always signify the importance it is ascribed in late- and post-Byzantine theological literature. For the Byzantines often pointed to some other elements of the rite as “consecratory,” and were in nowise strangers to the idea of a Eucharistic consecration without an epiclesis. 1. Very useful overviews of the history of the debates and of the prob- lem in general can be found in: Sévérien Salaville, “Épiclèse eucharistique,” in Dictionnaire de théologie catholique, vol. 5, part 1a (Paris: Letouzey et Ané, 1924), 194–300; Cyprian Kern, The Eucharist [original title in Russian: arximan- drit Kiprian, Evxaristiq] (Paris: YMCA-Press, 1947), 245–72; Pantelehvmon ÔRodovpoulo" (mhtropolivth"), ÔO kaqavgiasmo" tw'n dw'rwn th'" qeiva" Eujcaristiva" (Leitourgika; Blatavdwn 3; Thessaloniki, 20002); John McKenna, The Eucharistic Epiclesis: A Detailed History from the Patristics to the Modern Era, 2nd ed.

[ 1 ] ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The staff and directors of the Hagiography Database Project would like to express their appreciation to Dumbarton Oaks which supported the project from 1991-1998, and to the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation which made a generous grant to the project for the years 1994-1997 to supplement Dumbarton Oaks funding. We also thank Owen Dall, president of Chesapeake Comput- ing Inc., for his generous forbearance in allowing Buddy Shea, Stacy Simley, and Kathy Coxe to spend extra time at Dumbarton Oaks in the development of the Hagiography database. Special mention must be made of the effort Buddy Shea put into this project with his congenial manner and strong expertise. Without Buddy the project as we now know it would not exist. GENERAL INTRODUCTION TO THE DATABASE PROJECT Hagiography was one of the most important genres of Byzantine literature, both in terms of quantity of written material and the wide audience that read or listened to these texts. The Dumbarton Oaks Hagiography Database Project is designed to provide Byzantinists and other medievalists with new opportunities of access to this important and underutilized corpus of Greek texts.
