More detailed information will be available soon, but you can sign up now at the link below. Join us for a short procession (1-2 miles walking at most). During the procession we will stop at some logical place (town square, etc.) and hold a short concert and/or serve a short moleben. 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. Don’t miss this great opportunity to bring our faith to our neighbors! Sign up for Saline today!

Monday First Things - Teachings of the Holy Fathers 
24/10/22, 06:00 AM
Posted by Fr. Gregory

Laziness is not a small vice and it is numbered among the mortal sins, and therefore we must force ourselves to fulfill our duties and ask God for help and not rely on our own strength. Seeing our good intentions, He will give strength and power and will help us overcome the paralyzing laziness; but without our effort and good intention, God does not help. During time of infirmity and weakness, let these take the place of our idleness: pain of heart, remorse, and humility.

Scripture Reading for the Coming Week 
23/10/22, 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: Philippians 2:12-16 & Luke 7:36-50
Tuesday: Philippians 2:16-23 & Luke 8:1-3
Wednesday: Philippians 2:24-30 & Luke 8:22-25
Thursday: Philippians 3:1-8 & Luke 9:7-11
Friday: Philippians 3:8-19 & Luke 9:12-18
Saturday: II Corinthians 1:8-11 & Luke 6:1-10

Ïîíåäåëüíèê: Ôèë. 2:12-16 è îò Ëóêè 7:36-50
Âòîðíèê: Ôèë. 2:16-23 è îò Ëóêè 8:1-3
Ñðåäà: Ôèë. 2:24-30 è îò Ëóêè 8:22-25
×åòâåðã: Ôèë. 3:1-8 è îò Ëóêè 9:7-11
Ïÿòíèöà: Ôèë. 3:8-19 è îò Ëóêè 9:12-18
Ñóááîòà: II Êîð. 1:8-11 è îò Ëóêè 6:1-10

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 
23/10/22, 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!
