Monday First Things - Teachings of the Holy Fathers 
11/7/22, 06:00 AM
Posted by Fr. Gregory


You must not grow faint-hearted. Surely you cannot live without temptations: “Who is the man that shall live and not see death?” (Psalms 88:49), i.e., temptations? Temptation is necessary because it brings about patience, and patience – proficiency. If we were not tried, we would remain ignorant and stupid. In times of trouble, let us accuse ourselves and not others.

Scripture Reading for the Coming Week 
10/7/22, 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: Romans 12:4-5,15-21 & Matthew 12:9-13
Tuesday: Romans 14:9-18 & Matthew 12:14-16,22-30
Wednesday: Romans 15:7-16 & Matthew 12:38-45
Thursday: Romans 15:17-29 & Matthew 12:46-13:3
Friday: Romans 16:1-16 & Matthew 13:4-9
Saturday: Romans 8:14-21 & Matthew 9:9-13

Ïîíåäåëüíèê: Ðèì. 12:4-5,15-21 è îò Ìàòôåÿ 12:9-13
Âòîðíèê: Ðèì. 14:9-18 è îò Ìàòôåÿ 12:14-16,22-30
Ñðåäà: Ðèì. 15:7-16 è îò Ìàòôåÿ 12:38-45

Confession & Communion at St. Vladimir’s + Rule to Prepare for Communion 
10/7/22, 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!

Cross Processions Start July 24 
9/7/22, 06:00 AM
Posted by Fr. Gregory

In order to help our friends and neighbors learn about the existence of Orthodox Christianity (many people do not even know we exist!), we will conduct a series of Cross Processions in our local communities. The first will be July 24 after the parish meal. After the short procession (around 1 mile walking at most) we will end at some logical place (town square, etc.) and hold a short concert. We will provide a traditional Orthodox witness to our communities: we will have information about Orthodox Christianity available for those who are interested, and talk to those who would like to learn more. If you would like to take part in the Cross Processions please reach out to Anri Sorel at info@stvladimiraami.org or 734-335-4338. All are welcome!

Brotherhood, Sisterhood, Clergy, Choir – EVERYONE! We all need to chip in an take care of the property the Lord has given to us, just as we all need to work together to execute our beautiful Divine Services. Please mark your calendars now for every second Saturday of the month for an all-parish work day. Every season. Every month. Inside. Outside. Always every second Saturday starting at 10:00 a.m. please plan to join us to pitch in as we make our parish shine as the House of God that it is! Invite friends! Everyone is welcome! And it just isn’t fair to expect that “someone else” will do this. We all own our parish in that the Lord has given us to be here and to the responsibility that He has given us to care for His House.
