Through your generosity, we collected $ plus baby items. This will be used to help moms in need in the greater Cleveland area who come to Zoe House. THE MORE YOU KNOW In the Orthodox Christian world, the Feast of our Lord s Resurrection is referred to as Pascha, the Greek transliteration of the Hebrew word Pesach, meaning Passover. As was foreshadowed by the Passover account of the Old Testament, Jesus becomes the supreme Passover (Paschal) Lamb sacrificed in a New Covenant for the remission of our sins and the salvation of our soul; laying down His life, lying in a tomb, and rising on the Third Day so that we, too, might have a way to escape or pass over from death to life. The word Easter is of Germanic origin and is derived from the name of the pagan female goddess, Eostre: goddess of the spring month of April. Because the celebration of Christ s Resurrection almost exclusively falls during that time frame, the Western world unfortunately began to identify the Paschal Feast by the calendar month; thus inadvertently misconstruing the ultimate Christian Feast with pagan terminology. THANK YOU to everyone who brought non-parishable food items, clothing or donated financially to St. Herman s House of Hospitality. The donations were picked up last week and your selflessness is the true Christian hallmark of the Great Fast! ST. JAMES PRAYER LIST APRIL The prayer of the righteous has great power in its affects (St. James 5:1) Add Joe & Marissa Uhrina (With Child) Add David Gaydos (Health) CHURCH CHUCKLE ON PASCHA This is the Alpha and Omega! This is the beginning and the end, the ineffable beginning and the incomprehensible end. This is the Christ! This is the king! This is Jesus! This is the commander! This is the Lord! This is He Who rose from the dead! This is He Who sits at the right hand of the Father! He bears the Father and is borne by Him! To Him be the glory and the might forever. Amen! (Saint Melito of Sardis)
