“I shall tell you this as well: the burden of obedience is considered to be an epitome of the rest of the virtues, just as the Cross is of the Lord’s Passion. And just as the thief entered paradise through the cross, we, too, enter the kingdom through obedience as through a cross. Thus, it is obvious that the disobedient are outside the kingdom.”
Monastic Wisdom: The Letters of Elder Joseph the Hesychast

"This is the cause of all evils: the ignorance of the Scriptures. We go into battle without arms, and how ought we to come off safe?" -St. John Chrysostom, Homily IX on Colossians.
In order to help increase the general knowledge of scripture in our parish family we present here for your edification the scripture readings for the coming week. At least one Gospel Reading and one Epistle reading are assigned for each day of the year (although during Great Lent the readings are from the Old Testament). Hearing or reading only those readings appointed for Sunday merely scratches the surface of the great spiritual wealth that the scriptures provide us. Some of the readings are easily understandable – others are less so. As Orthodox Christians we do not make private interpretation of scripture, but rather consult the fathers of the Church for their explanations to aid us in our understanding. Those wishing to have access to such explanations are asked to contact Fr. Gregory or inquire in the kiosk for further reading in this regard. Bibles may also be acquired in the kiosk.
Monday: Philippians 1:1-17 & Luke 4:37-44
Tuesday: Philippians 1:8-14 & Luke 5:12-16
Wednesday: Philippians 1:12-20 & Luke 5:33-39
Thursday: Philippians 1:20-27 & Luke 6:12-19
Friday: Philippians 1:27-2:4 & Luke 6:17-23
Saturday: I Corinthians 15:58-16:3 & Luke 5:17-26

Confession and Communion are the two sacraments we most often partake of as Orthodox Christians and thus it behooves us to learn about these, how to prepare for these, and how to best take advantage of the Grace that our Lord freely gives us in these sacraments. At St. Vladimir’s we have created a special web site for this purpose with much information in this regard. Please find the web site listed below and please contact Fr. Gregory with questions!

Our Head Reader, Ken (Peter) Doll, will offer a class on Saturdays at 5:00 p.m. beginning on October 14 (NEW START DATE), to teach new readers how to read the Hours and the Epistle. Not just HOW to read, but also how to find WHAT is the right thing to read. This class is targeted at the next generation of readers (men and women age 16+), but all are welcome. The class will be in English. Those who would like to learn to read Church Slavonic should alert Ken to this. That will be a separate process, but we do have the ability to train you to read Church Slavonic. Once this class has concluded a second class will be offered (winter or spring), providing a deeper dive into the Liturgics of the Church, teaching students how to compile all the Divine Services, and how to read the appropriate things at Vespers, Matins, and all the Divine Service. To learn more please contact Ken at church or email: headreader@stvladimiraami.org.
