 We have now entered into the period of the Nativity Fast. Many wonder why we approach Christmas with a fast; why so somber when this is a season for parties, presents, festal meals and celebration? Fr Thomas Hopko, describes this period as “The Winter Pascha” and explains that: “The Lord’s birth and baptism are directly […]

The Liturgy of the Presanctified Gifts

26/02/2017 By Joanna-stGab-author

As we already have seen, the Eucharistic Divine Liturgy is not celebrated in the Orthodox Church on Lenten weekdays. In order for the faithful to sustain their Lenten effort by participation in Holy Communion, the Liturgy of the Presanctified Gifts is served. The service is an ancient one in the Orthodox Church. We officially hear […]

Great Lent : The time of preparation for the Resurrection of Christ

25/02/2017 By Joanna-stGab-author

The season of Great Lent is the time of preparation for the feast of the Resurrection of Christ. It is the living symbol of man’s entire life which is to be fulfilled in his own resurrection from the dead with Christ. It is a time of renewed devotion: of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving. It is […]

The Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost!

14/02/2016 By St. Gabriel Admin

Luke 19:1-10 Then Jesus entered and passed through Jericho. 2 Now behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus who was a chief tax collector, and he was rich. 3 And he sought to see who Jesus was, but could not because of the crowd, for he was of short stature. 4 So he ran ahead and climbed up […]

The Feast of the Annunciation

09/04/2015 By St. Gabriel Admin

But assuredly the greatest feast which falls during this period of the year is the feast that celebrates the Annunciation of her divine motherhood made by the Angel Gabriel to the Mother of God, the most holy Virgin Mary. One sentence from the chant at matins sums up the whole significance of this feast: ‘Today […]

Palm Sunday: Metropolitan Anthony

09/04/2015 By St. Gabriel Admin

PALM SUNDAY By Metropolitan Anthony of Sourozh Today Christ enters the path not only of His sufferings but of that dreadful loneliness which enshrouds Him during all the days of Passion week. The loneliness begins with a misunderstanding; the people expect that the Lord’s entry into Jerusalem will be the triumphant procession of a political […]
