God willing, Deacon Dmitri Mihaliov will be ordained a priest on Sunday, August 27 for service at our St. Ambrose Mission in Mackinaw City. Ordination is the sacrament of the Holy Church that we probably least often participate in, but it is important that we all participate in this ordination appropriately. We ask all our parishioners to review the ordination instructions here and to address questions to Fr. Gregory or Fr. Colin. Please remember - the Divine Liturgy begins at 9:00 a.m. on Sunday, August 27.

We present here a short educational offering for both children and adults on the upcoming Sunday's principle Gospel reading so that all can better prepare for the Divine Services. Parents are asked to review the children’s portion with their children. It is very important for us to attend the Divine Services on Sundays and whenever else we are able, but in addition it is our spiritual responsibility to educate ourselves and our families in the faith. It is our hope that this mid-week offering will be an aid in this regard. Please contact Fr. Gregory with questions or suggestions.

“So have obedience now to those older than you, and in good time you will also become experienced to benefit those who are younger. There will come a time when you will acquire what you don’t have now and seems difficult for you to accomplish, and you will wonder how you acquired it, since you had already stopped asking for it. These things will happen, as long as you persevere and keep seeking the purification of your soul, and that is enough. Anger will cease, peace will come, you will find dispassion commensurate to your work, and you will find the prayer. Just seek and exert yourself as much as you can. Everything is not achieved all at once; as with the body, you did not become a man from an infant all at once.”

"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: I Corinthians 5:9-6:11 & Matthew 13:54-58
Tuesday: I Corinthians 6:20-7:12 & Matthew 14:1-13
Wednesday: I Corinthians 7:12-24 & Matthew 14:35-15:11
Thursday: I Corinthians 7:24-35 & Matthew 15:12-21
Friday: I Corinthians 7:35-8:7 & Matthew 15:29-31
Saturday: Romans 12:1-3 & Matthew 10:37-11:1
Понедельник: I Кор. 5:9-6:11 и от Матфея 13:54-58
Вторник: I Кор. 6:20-7:12 и от Матфея 14:1-13
Среда: I Кор. 7:12-24 и от Матфея 14:35-15:11
Четверг: I Кор. 7:24-35 и от Матфея 15:12-21
Пятница: I Кор. 7:35-8:7 и от Матфея 15:29-31
Суббота: Рим. 12:1-3 и от Матфея 10:37-11:1
Please find below several very nice articles on how to read the scripture from an Orthodox point of view.
