Faris, Pastor Monday – Friday 9am – 4:30pm Reverend Raymond Khallouf, Parochial Vicar Subdeacon Michael Maynes EPISTLE Romans 10:1‐13 “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” Brothers and sisters, my heart’s desire and prayer to God for the Israelites is that they may be saved. For I can tesfy about them that they are zealous for God, but their zeal is not based on knowledge. Since they did not know the righteousness of God and sought to establish their own, they did not submit to God’s righteous- ness. Christ is the culminaon of the law so that there may be righteousness for everyone who believes. Moses writes this about the righteousness that is by the law: “The person who does these things will live by them.” But the righteousness that is by faith says: “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heav- en?’” (that is, to bring Christ down) 7 “or ‘Who will descend into the deep?’” that is, to bring Christ up from the dead). But what does it say? “The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart,”[that is, the message concerning faith that we proclaim: If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are jusfied, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. As Scripture says, “Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame.” For there is no difference between Jew and Genle—the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him, for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” GOSPEL Luke 24:36‐48 Jesus Appears to the Disciples While they were sll talking about this, Jesus himself stood among them and said to them, “Peace be with you.” They were startled and frightened, thinking they saw a ghost. He said to them, “Why are you troubled, and why do doubts rise in your minds? Look at my hands and my feet. It is I myself! Touch me and see; a ghost does not have flesh and bones, as you see I have.” When he had said this, he showed them his hands and feet. And while they sll did not believe it because of joy and amazement, he asked them, “Do you have anything here to eat?” They gave him a piece of broiled fish, and he took it and ate it in their presence. He said to them, “This is what I told you while I was sll with you: Everything must be fulfilled that is wrien about me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets and the Psalms.” Then he opened their minds so they could understand the Scriptures. He told them, “This is what is wrien: The Messiah will suffer and rise from the dead on the third day, and repentance for the forgiveness of sins will be preached in his name to all naons, beginning at Jerusalem. You are witnesses of these things.

    THE WAY TO PARADISE Saint Ann Maronite Church Scranton, PA INFORMATION BOOKLET Price and Sumner Avenue Scranton, PA 18504 (570) 344-2129 Page 1 of 27 THE FAITH AND LIFE OF THE CHURCH ARE EMBODIED IN HISTORY HANDED ON BY TEACHING EXPRESSED THROUGH LITURGY AND MEMORIALIZED IN ARCHITECTURE Msgr. Ronald N. Beshara Page 2 of 27 OUR PAST ... Maronite history has its origins in Antioch where the early Christians received their faith from Saint Peter after he fled persecutions in Jerusalem. According to Acts 11:26 the followers of Christ were called Christians for the first time in Antioch. The seat of the Church remained there for 7 years before being transferred to Rome. Prior to 741 there were 7 Syro-Catholic Popes, 5 of them were Syro-Maronites. Antioch was a Hellenistic city while Edessa to the Northeast maintained a Syriac-Aramaic culture followed by the Christians who later were to be called Maronite. Their tradition followed the language, theology and liturgy of Christ and His Apostles thus reflecting their mentality. After divisions and persecutions the Christians gradually migrated to the safety of the mountains in Lebanon. Thus the liturgical roots of the Maronite Church can be traced to Antioch and Edessa. In the 4th century Saint Maron, a friend of Saint John Chrysostom, fought the heresies that beset the Catholic Church at that time, particularly Arianism, Monophysitism and Nestorianism. His monastery became the principal center of pastoral and spiritual care for the area. The monks and followers, then called Maronites, were continually called upon and willing to sacrifice their lives for their religious convictions.

    Epistle of Thegan, chorbishop of Trier, to Hatto (ca. 836) [ed. Ernst Dümmler, MGH Epistolae 5 (Berlin, 1899) 337] Translated by • Courtney M. Booker University of British Columbia ([email protected]) –September 2008– [To be used for teaching purposes only. Please do not cite or reproduce without permission] To the venerable lord and father in Christ, Hatto, most noble duke and councilor, Thegan, a sinner, although a priest, proclaims greetings in the Lord Jesus Christ. When I had considered for a long time what, from my poverty, I might have offered to your serene 5 presence on account of your immense kindness, which, not because my merits were deserving [of it], you deigned to show to me constantly, and in order that I might entrust the memory of my name to your piety, nothing came to mind but that I might send to you some little work of the holy fathers, to which you could devote your reverend attention. Thereupon, I sent you [a copy of?] that book, which holy Alcuin, the supreme scholar, compiled from the various books of Saint Augustine into one [volume], a 10 book which he delivered to the most expert and noble emperor Charles (just as the prologue of that book notes), where can be found, as it is the greatest necessity of human affairs, [works] on the divine nature and essence, on the eternal growth of God the Father, on the eternal nativity of God the Son, on the eternal procession of the Holy Spirit, on the incarnation of Jesus Christ, Son of God, how God is a single trinity and a triple singularity, just as true faith bids [us] to believe, and he who does not believe 15 thus is a stranger from Christ.
