It is certainly something to celebrate when the Joint Inter- national Commission for Theological Dialogue between the Catholic Church and the Orthodox Church (JIC) recommences its work after a painful six-year hiatus. An added symbolic note accompanied the recommencement of the commission’s work: the dialogue took place in Belgrade. When the Balkans are a place of understanding rather than war, the human race should give thanks to the Lord. It is a special joy to note that Father Ivan Dacko, president of the Institute of Ecumenical Studies at the Ukrainian Catho- lic University, was included this time as one of the participants of the Catholic delegation to Belgrade. I remember well the day in the summer of 1995 when the members of the Kyivan Church Study Group, meeting with Cardinal Cassidy at the Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity, petitioned that the Catholic delegation be composed of representatives of each of the Churches of the Catholic communion. At least now the Catholic Church of Kyiv is adequately represented. For that we can also thank God. The JIC’s work for unity was further blessed by the pope of Rome and the patriarch of Constantinople when they met in the latter’s headquarters at the Phanar in the city that the world refers to as “Istanbul” but we prefer to call by its ancient name, Constantinople. For them, as for the JIC, the item at the top of the ecumenical agenda is finally what it should have been many years ago: a discussion of papal primacy. Now, per- haps, we can see progress being made and some of the focus on the Eastern Catholic Churches can be shifted to its proper place in the larger process. Pope John Paul II, in his 1995 encyclical Ut Unum Sint asked for help in imagining a papacy that would be effective in protecting the unity of the Church but nevertheless recon- 2 Andriy Chirovsky figured in such a way that it would not be a stumbling block for non-Catholic Christians. This invitation was especially aimed at the Orthodox Churches with whom the popes of re- cent times have emphasized that a real if still not entirely perfect communion exists. To be sure, there are certain extreme voices among the Orthodox who claim that the papacy is almost irreparably de- fective if not actually diabolical. However, it is safe to say that most Orthodox leaders do see a need for primacy and many would even add that some form of papal primacy would be good to have in today’s very complicated world. That is why the fact that the JIC is now studying the issue of papal primacy is so important. It is also extremely important that Pope Bene- dict XVI has restated his predecessor’s invitation for people outside the Catholic Church and especially the Orthodox to help re-imagine the exercise of papal primacy. It is no secret that the encyclical of one pope need not be emphasized by the next. Pope John Paul II’s revolutionary request for help in re- envisaging papal primacy could have gone by the wayside but it has not and we should thank God for that, too. Not to be outdone in ideas of seismic proportions, in an interview with the Roman news agency Zenit on 1 December 2006, his All-Holiness Patriarch Bartholomew of Constan- tinople, speaking of the papal visit to the Ecumenical Patriar- chate concluded that day, proffered the requisite words of en- thusiasm and thanks (“Benedict XVI’s visit has incalculable value in this process of reconciliation”), but then made a com- ment in response to a question about the future of Catholic- Orthodox unity: In this respect, I can say that I spoke with His Holiness of something – something that we could do. I presen- ted him with a proposal which I cannot now elaborate on, as we await an official response, but I can say that His Holiness was very interested and that he received it favorably. We hope it can be undertaken as it is di- rected to that ecumenical progress that, as we have af- firmed and written in the common declaration, both of us are determined to pursue. Editorial 3 Bartholomew’s comment immediately bestirred specula- tion as to what was proposed. The most plausible explanation to date seems to be that the bishop of Rome and the archbishop of New Rome will both go to the 2007 meeting of the JIC and participate in person. If that is the case, it would truly be help- ful for dialogue participants to be able to pose questions and to raise points of disagreement speaking directly to the pope

    The Maronite Voice A Publication of the Maronite Eparchies in the USA Volume VIII Issue No. VII July - August 2012 Where In The World Would You Find the Freedom That We Have In This United States of America? Dear Friends: s you know, both myself and Bishop Gregory were in Lebanon Afor approximately three weeks in June to attend the Annual Maronite Bishops’ Synod and various meetings. It was a great experience for both, receiving and sharing ideas with other Maronite Bishops from around the world. On my return, as the plane flew over American soil, I began to reflect on the various countries which we passed over. My heart went out to the people of Syria, Iraq and Jordan in the Middle East where there is persecution and heartache. I realized more and more, in that part of the world where Jesus began His teachings, the people endure much danger and are even losing the faith that has been instilled in them from Apostolic times. This is due to the environment in which they live. Except for Lebanon, there is no freedom, no liberty, no justice for all, as we enjoy in this great country. I begin to ask, do our people appreciate what we have in this great land? Yes, we are not perfect, but we must remind our immigrants and natural citizens alike, that despite our defects, where in the world would you find the freedom that we have in this United States of America? Let us thank God for his goodness to all of us for we are able to live in the land of the " FREE and the HOME of the BRAVE." During this time of the year as we celebrate the Fourth of July, let us thank God for all those who continue to work and sacrifice to make this the greatest country in the world.

Feast of the Resurrection of our Lord, God and Saviour Jesus Christ We call the present Feast ‘Pascha’, which in Hebrew means ‘Passing Over’; for this is the day on which God from the beginning brought the world out of non-existence. On this same day he also made the people of Israel pass over the Red Sea and snatched them from the hands of Pharaoh. Again it was on this day that he came down from heaven and dwelt in the womb of the Virgin. And now he has snatched the whole of humanity from the vaults of Hades and made it pass upwards to heaven and brought it to its ancient dignity of incorruption. But when he descended into Hades he did not raise all, but as many as believed in him were chosen. He freed the souls of the Saints since time began who were forcibly held fast by Hades and made them all ascend to heaven. And so we, rejoicing exceed- ingly, celebrate the Resurrection with splendor as we image joy with which our nature has been en- riched by God’s compassionate mercy. 1 Remember in your prayers: Those who have fallen asleep before us in the hope of resurrection.

  • Complete Teachers Manual
    Teacher Resource Manual GRADE We Respond GOD WITH US 6PUBLICATIONS to God Catechesis is a work of the Church, a sharing in the teaching mission of the Body of Christ. Catechetical material, like iconography or liturgical chant, strives to speak of the Tradition of the Church. The individual's insights, perceptions, and experiences become significant in that they personalize this Tradition and give witness to it in our contemporary world. Accordingly, each text is the work of the Byzantine Catholic Churches in the United States which participate in ECDD, the catechetical arm of the bishops of Eastern Catholic Associates. We Respond to God is the work of Rev Fred Saato, a priest of the Melkite Greek Catholic Eparchy of Newton and Barbara Frazicr, M.S in Ed. with the help of Marie Yaroshak Nester, M.Ed, in English, B.S. in Secondary Education. The work was reviewed and approved by all the hierarchs of the participating eparchies, their directors of religious education, catechetical stalls, and a review board drawn from the clergy and laity of these eparchies. Therefore, it represents the common faith and vision of their communities. This project is being funded in part by the USCCB Committee on Home Missions, the Greek Catholic Union, the Koch Foundation, the John Victor Machuga Foundation, and the Providence Association for the Ukrainian Catholics in the United States.

  • The Ordination of a Married Man Into the Priesthood of the Melkite
    United States The ordination of a married man into the priesthood of the Melkite Church in the United States has triggered some far-ranging discussions of Eastern traditions and ecumenical prospects. By WILLIAM BOLE t was Christmas eve. Bishop John Elya, spiritual leader of the Melkite Catholics in the United States, and a night owl, had just returned to Ihis residence in Newton, Massachusetts, after celebrating midnight Mass. Instead of turning in, the prelate turned on his computer and logged onto the Internet. "To all my friends in Cyber- space, those who wrote to me recently (as recently as tonight) and those who wrote to me in the past. Grace and peace be unto you from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ whose Birthday we celebrate," announced Bishop Elya, a Syrian-born cleric with silver hair and a goatee. Typing out his greetings, and his wish that the Internet might offer a new tool of Melkite evangelization, the bish- op mentioned one other thing in the form of a postscript: The good news of the week is the ordination of Protodeacon Andre St. Germain to holy priesthood by the laying of my humble hand, on Father Andre St. Germain (with beard) acting in his role as a deacon several Saturday, December 21, at St. Basil years ago.

    Sunday, July 28, 2019 Christ is among us! He is and always will be! ا ! آ ون! ا، 28 ز 2019 Seventh Sunday after Pentecost Saints of the Day Commemoration of the holy Apostles and Deacons Prochoros, Nicanor, Timon, and Parmenas Saints Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon and Parmenas, Apostles of the Seventy were among the first deacons in the Church of Christ. In the Acts of the Holy Apostles (6:1-6) it is said that the twelve Apostles chose seven men: Stephen, Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas and Nicholas, full of the Holy Spirit and wisdom, and appointed them to serve as deacons. They are commemorated together today, although they died at various times and in various places. At first, St. Prochorus accompanied the holy Apostle Peter, who made him bishop in the city of Nicomedia. After the Dor- mition of the Most Holy Theotokos, Pro- chorus was a companion and coworker of the holy Apostle John the Theologian and was banished with him to the island of Patmos. There he wrote down the Book of Revelation concerning the final fate of the world. Upon returning to Nicomedia, St. Prochorus converted pagans to Christ in the city of Antioch, where he suffered martyrdom. 1 SUNDAY PICNIC IN CORONADO!

They went to Jeru- salem and withdrew to the monastery of Saint Gerasimos. Clothed in the holy monastic habit, they spent forty years in the desert in austerities and ascetical exercises. Saint John re- mained in the desert until the end of his life. On the contrary, Saint Simeon went to Emesa. There he feigned madness, which merits for him the surname of "a Fool-for-Christ's-Sake." He was only recognized after his death. Each one related a characteris- tic of his life that the others had not known about. All these accounts have served for the faithful's edification and usefulness. Born around the year 522, he died in peace around the end of the Sixth century. 1 SUNDAY PICNIC IN CORONADO!
