  • SAINT LUKE the EVANGELIST GREEK ORTHODOX CHURCH September 21, 2014
    SAINT LUKE THE EVANGELIST GREEK ORTHODOX CHURCH september 21, 2014 the sunday after the exaltation of the precious Cross Saint Quadratus, Apostle of the Seventy preached the Word of God at Athens and at Magnesia (eastern peninsula of Thessaly), and was Bishop of Athens. His biographer called him “a morn- ing star” among the clouds of paganism. He converted many pagans to the true faith in Christ the Savior, and his preaching aroused the hatred of the pagans. Once, an angry mob fell upon the saint to pelt him with stones. Preserved by God, St Quadratus remained alive, and they threw him into prison, where he died of starvation. His holy body was buried in Magnesia. In the year 126, St Quadratus wrote an Apologia in defence of Christianity. Presented to the emperor Hadrian (117-138), the Apologia affected the persecution of Christians, since the em- peror issued a decree saying that no one should be convicted without just cause. This Apologia was known to the historian Eusebius in the fourth century. At the present time, only part of this Apologia survives, quoted by Eusebius: “The deeds of our Savior were always witnessed, because they were true. His healings and raising people from the dead were visible not only when they were healed and raised, but always. They lived not only during the existence of the Savior upon the earth, but they also remained alive long after His departure. Some, indeed, have survived to our own time.” In July of 1274, the Byzantine Emperor Michael VIII accepted a union with the Roman Church at Lyons, France.

  • The Church and the Ministry in the Early Centuries
    The Church and the Ministry in the Early Centuries Author(s): Lindsay, Thomas Martin (1843-1914) Publisher: Grand Rapids, MI: Christian Classics Ethereal Library Description: Scholars can only reconstruct what the lives of the first Christians were like with the limited evidence available to them. In 1902, this Scottish theologian set out to do just that, and published a series of lectures he had given on the sub- ject. Drawing from biblical and other ancient texts, Lindsay paints a picture of first century churches, their leaders, and their missionaries. In particular, he traces the development of the ministry itself and how it evolved into the priesthood of the Catholic Church. As well as investigating how Roman religious customs influenced the early Church's hierarchy, he briefly sketches some of the first Christian controversies concerning the roles of church leaders.

After the Ascension, St. Quadratus preached the Word of God at Athens and at Magnesia (eastern peninsula of Thessaly), and eventually became the Bishop of Athens.

  • BQOK REVIEWS RELIGIONS Or the FAR EAST
    BQOK REVIEWS RELIGIONS or THE FAR EAST. By George C. Ring, SJ. Milwaukee: Bruce Publishing Co., 1950. Pp. 350. $6.00. It is generally conceded that the average American's knowledge of the short course of events which comprise the history of his own nation, except for a few famous names and dates which have been dinned into his conscious­ ness, is woefully vague and leaves much to be desired. And when it comes to the cultural, religious, or historical background of nations more physically removed in space, especially of those which have been traditionally con­ sidered primitive, occult, and inferior, such as the nations of the Orient, a state of ignorance is approached which may well be called abysmal. Here again, a few key names such as Confucius, Buddha, and Mohammed may be known, or terms such as Nirvana or Zen may be recalled, but even in cul­ tured and educated circles it would be difficult to find anyone able to develop these themes with accuracy, intelligence, or understanding. Father Ring has done just that. At a time when oriental nations are intruding themselves upon our international consciousness, he has brought forth a brief but accurate and highly readable account of their corporate vicissitudes with divinity, and the external manifestations of this in their national existence. The word "brief" is used with regard to this book only in a relative sense; it is brief in relation to the vastness of its subject matter. And on this ac­ count it must be said that second only to Father Ring's precise, scholarly research is to be placed his power to endow necessary catalogues of persons, places, and dates with vivid and sustained interest.

  • The Eleventh Sunday a Er Pentecost
    s The Eleventh Sunday aer Pentecost August 8, 2021 11 am Welcome to St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church The Tree of Life is Growing Here We are called to offer sanctuary in the city, to grow in God’s love, to seek the renewal of the world Welcome to this service of Holy Communion. We rejoice in this opportunity to gather together for worship and fellowship. If you are with us in the church, we are delighted you are here. At this service, masks are optional for those who are fully vaccinated. As we move to this new phase, we continue to hold as one of our highest values a climate of mutual trust and respect. There are many reasons why some may choose to remain masked, regardless of vaccination status. Welcoming one another in good faith, as God has made us welcome, is one of the hallmarks of our tradition and one of the practices that will lead us into the future. If you are joining us virtually, know that we are grateful for your presence and continue to seek ways to make this an inclusive experience for you. When the time comes for communion, we invite you to trust, with us, that for generations the church has assured us that when we are absent from the table, the sincere desire to receive communion conveys all the benets of the sacrament itself. A prayer for you to say at the time of communion is included in the leaet. As we gather for worship together in our dierent locations, we are making dierent choices of how to participate.
