Monday First Things - Teachings of the Holy Fathers 
22/5/23, 06:00 AM
Posted by Fr. Gregory

“The grace of God doesn’t depend on one’s years, but on the way he struggles and on the mercy of the Lord. Experience through praxis is obtained with the years; but grace—and that is why it is called grace, in other words, a gift—depends on God and is given in proportion to the fervency of faith, humility, and good intentions.”

Scripture Reading for the Coming Week  
21/5/23, 06:00 PM
Posted by Fr. Gregory

"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: Acts 17:1-15 & John 11:47-57
Tuesday: Acts 17:19-28 & John 12:19-36
Wednesday: Acts 18:22-28 & John 12:36-47
Thursday: Acts 1:1-12 & Luke 24:36-53
Friday: Acts 19:1-8 & John 14:1-11
Saturday: Acts 20:7-12 & John 14:10-21

Ïîíåäåëüíèê: Äåÿí. 17:1-15 è îò Èîàííà 11:47-57
Âòîðíèê: Äåÿí. 17:19-28 è Èîàííà 12:19-36
Ñðåäà: Äåÿí. 18:22-28 è îò Èîàííà 12:36-47
×åòâåðã: Äåÿí. 1:1-12 è îò Ëóêè 24:36-53
Ïÿòíèöà: Äåÿí. 19:1-8 è îò Èîàííà 14:1-11
Ñóááîòà: Äåÿí. 20:7-12 è îò Èîàííà 14:10-21

Please find below several very nice articles on how to read the scripture from an Orthodox point of view.

Confession & Communion at St. Vladimir’s + Rule to Prepare for Communion 
21/5/23, 06:00 AM
Posted by Fr. Gregory

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!

At the Parish Council meeting on March 11, 2017 a Stewardship Education Team was appointed by the Parish Council consisting of Fr. Gregory, Jack (Alexey) Mitchel, and Leta (Ksenia) Nikulshina. The charge of this team is to provide our parish family with educational information about stewardship. In this regard, we intend to send out an email and post on our parish web site a quarterly communication in preparation for a quarterly parish finance report out.

Please find the quarterly communication at the link below. Please feel free to contact any of us, or any of the Parish Council members, with questions at any time. Or, if you prefer, use the second link below to ask a question or make a comment anonymously.
