To grow together in faith by seeing God working & touching the lives of others, And become a warmer & more loving community touched by Christ s love. Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep (Roman 12, 15) AT THE DIVINE LITURGY Antiphon Prayer: O Christ God, in all Eternity, who by His birth from a Virgin, have come on earth in His human nature to enlightened to the whole Creation. Steady our footsteps in the way of Your Commandments, and grant us to know and love You, by the intercession of Your All-Pure Mother and Ever-Virgin Mary and all your Saints. For You are our Light and our Redemption, O Christ God, and to You we render glory and to Your Eternal Father and Your All-holy, Good and Life-giving Spirit, now and always and forever and ever. صالة األنديفونة: يا من بميالده من البتول ظهر على األرض إنسانا فأنار الخليقة كل ها وط د أيها المسيح اإلله األزلي خطواتنا في سبيل وصاياك واهدنا إلى معرفت ك ومحب تك بشفاعة والدت ك الكاملة الطهارة الدائمة البتولي ة مريم وجميع قديسيك. ألنك أنت نورنا وفداؤنا أيها المسيح اإلله وإليك نرفع المجد وإلى أبيك األزلي وروحك القد وس الصالح والمحيي اآلن وكل أوان وإلى دهر الداهرين. Troparion of the Resurrection (6 th Tone): The angelic powers were around Your tomb, and the guards became as dead; and Mary stood at the tomb, seeking Your spotless body. Then You despoiled Hades without being tried by it and You met the Virgin, O Bestower of life. O Lord, who rose from the dead, glory to You! نشيد القيامة )باللحن السادس(: طالبة جسد ك الطاهر. فسلبت إن القوات المالئكية ظهرت على قبر ك الجحيم ولم تنل ك بأذى والقيت البتول واهبا الحياة. والح ار س صاروا كاألموات فيا من قام من بي ن ومريم وقفت عند القبر األموات يا رب المجد Troparion of the Preparation (4 th Tone): Bethlehem, make ready, for Eden has been opened for all; Ephrata, be alert, for the Tree of Life has blossomed forth from the Virgin in the cave. Her womb has become a spiritual paradise wherein the divine Fruit was planted and if we eat of it, we shall live and not die like Adam. Christ is coming forth to bring back to life the likeness that had been lost in the beginning. النشيد للتقدمة )باللحن ال اربع(: استعد ي يا بي ت لحم فق د انفت حت عدن للجميع. تأ هبي يا إف ارثا فإن عود الحياة قد نب ت في المغارة من البتول وبطنها ظهر فردوسا عقليا فيه ال غرسة اإللهية التي إذا أكلنا منها نحيا وال نمو ت مثل آدم. المسيح يولد ليقيم الصورة التي سقطت قديما. Troparion of the Ancestors of Christ (2 nd Tone): Faith can accomplish great things. Through it, the Three Holy Children men rejoice in the flames as if they had been in refreshing water, and Daniel in the midst of lions is like a shepherd among his sheep. Through their intercession, O Christ God, save our souls لك. نشيد اآلباء )باللحن الثاني(: ما أعظم مفاعيل على ماء ال ارحة. ودانيال النبي بات يرعى األسود كالغنم. فبتض رعا ت هم أيها المسيح اإليمان الباهرة فبه كان الثالثة الفتية القديسون يبتهجون في ينبوع اللهيب كأنهم نفوسنا. اإلله خل ص

Kondakion of the Preparation for Nativity (3rd Tone): Today the Virgin is on her way to the cave where she will give birth to the Eternal Word of God in an ineffable manner.

2 Kondakion of the Preparation for Nativity (3rd Tone): Today the Virgin is on her way to the cave where she will give birth to the Eternal Word of God in an ineffable manner. Rejoice therefore, O Universe, when you hear this news, and glorify with the angels and the Shepherds, Him who shall appear as a new child, being God from all eternity. (See separate sheet) قنداق تقدمة الميالد )باللحن الثالث(: اليوم العذ ارء تأتي إلى المغارة / لتلد الكلمة الذي قبل الدهور. / والدة يعجز بيانها. / فاطربي أيتها المسكونة إذا سمعت / ومج دي مع المالئكة والرعاة / من شاء أن يظهر طفال جديد ا وهو اإلله الذي قبل الدهور. Epistle (p. 447): Prokimenon: Blessed are You, O Lord, God of our fathers, And your name is worthy of praise and glorious forever. Stichon: For You are just in all You have done to us; And all your works are true and your ways right. Reading from the Epistle of St. Paul to the Hebrews (11:9-10; 32-40) Brethren, by faith, Abraham lived in the Land of the Promise as in a foreign land, dwelling in tents with Isaac and Jacob, the co-heirs of the same promise, for he was looking for the city with fixed foundations, of which city the architect and builder is God. And what more shall I say? For time will fail me if I tell of Gideon, Barac, Samson, Japheth, David and Samuel and the prophets, who by faith conquered kingdoms, wrought justice, obtained the fulfillment of promises, stopped the mouths of lions, quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge of sword, recovered strength from weakness, became valiant in battle, routed foreign armies. Women had their dead restored to them though resurrection. Others were tortured, refusing to yield for their release in order to obtain a better resurrection. Others again suffered mockery and blows, even chains and jailings. They were stoned, cut to pieces, put to the question, killed by the sword. They went about in sheepskins and goatskins, destitute, distressed, afflicted (of whom the world was not worthy), wandering in deserts, mountains, caves and holes in the ground. And none of these, despite the positive witnessing of faith, received what was promised, for God has something better in store for us, so that they were not to reach their final perfection without us. Alleluia (Tone 4): O God, our ears have heard, our fathers have declared to us the deeds You did in their days, in the days of old. Stichon: The just cried out, and the Lord heard them, and He delivered them from all their trials. الرسالة )ص 501 ) المقدمة: مبارك أنت أيها الرب إله آبائنا ومسبح وممج د اسم ك إلى الدهور ص نعت بنا وأعمال ك ك لها ص دق وطرق ك است قامة ألنك عادل في جميع ما فصل من رسالة القديس بولس الرسول إلى العب ارنين )11: 10-9 و 40-32( ارهيم إلى أر ض الميعا د نزوله في بال د غربة وسكن في أخبية مع إسحق ويعقوب الوار ث ين معه للموع د يا إخوة باإليمان نزل إ ب نفس ه ألنه كان ينتظر المدين ة ذا ت األسس التي هللا صانعها وبا ر ئها. وماذا أقول أيضا إ بي الوق ت إن أخبرت عن نه يضيق ج د عون وبارق وشمشون ويفتاح وداود وصموئيل واألنبياء الذي ن باإليما ن قهروا الممالك وعم لوا البر ونالوا الموعد وس دوا أفواه أشداء في القتال وكسروا معسك ارت األجانب األسود. وأطفأوا قوة النار ون ج وا من حد السيف وتق ووا من ضعف وصاروا ليحصلوا على قيام ة أفضل. واسترجعت نساء أمواتهن بالقيامة وآخرون قد عذ بوا بتوتير األعضاء والضرب ولم يقبلوا النجاة والم عز ح نوا ماتوا بحد السيف ساحوا في جلو د الغن م الهزء وال سياط والقيود أيضا والسجن. ر جموا نش روا امت وآخرون قد ذاقوا العالم مستحقا لهم تائهين في الب ارري والجبا ل والمغاور وكهوف األرض. فهؤال ء ك لهم مع و زين مضايقين مجهودين. ولم يك ن بمعزل عن ا. قد سب ق فنظر لنا شيئا أفضل لكي ال يكملوا المشهود لهم باإليمان لم ينالوا الموعد ألن هللا هللويا: - أللهم بآذا ننا قد سمعنا وآباؤنا أخبروا بالعمل الذي عملته في أيامه م في األيا م القديمة ع لهم ومن جميع مضايقهم نج اهم. استم الصديقون صرخوا والرب Gospel (Mt 1: 1-25): Genealogy of Christ The book of the origin of Jesus Christ, the Son of David, the son of Abraham. Abraham begot Isaac, Isaac begot Jacob, Jacob begot Judah and his brethren. Judah begot Perez and Zarah whose mother was Thamar. Perez begot Hezron, Hezron begot Ram. And Ram begot Amminadab, Amminadab begot Nahshon, Nahshon begot Salma. Salma begot Boaz of Rahab. Boaz begot Obed of Ruth, Obed begot Jesse, Jesse begot David the King. And David the King begot Solomon of the former wife of Uriah. Soloman begot Rehoboam, Rehoboam begot Abijah, Abijah begot Asa. And Asa begot Jehoshaphat, Jehoshaphat begot Joram, Joram begot Azariah. And Azariah begot Jotham, Jotham begot Ahaz, Ahaz begot Ezechiah. And Ezehchiah begot Manasseh, Manasseh begot Amon, Amon begot Josiah. And Josiah begot Jeconiah and his brethren at the time of deportation to Babylon. And after the deportation to Babylon, Jeconiah begot Shealtiel, Shealtiel begot Zerubbabel. And Zerubbabel begot Abiud, Abiud begot Eliakim, Eliakim begot Azor. And Azor begot Zadok, Zadok begot Achim, Achim begot Eliud. And Eliud begot Eleazar, Eleazar begot Matthan, Matthan begot Jacob. And Jacob begot Joseph, the husband of Mary, and of her was born Jesus, Who is called Christ. So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations. And from David to the deportation to Babylon fourteen generations; and from the deportation to Babylon to Christ, fourteen generations. Now the origin of Christ was like this. When Mary His mother had been betrothed to Joseph, she was found, before they came together, to be with child by the Holy Spirit. But Joseph her husband, being a just man and not wishing to expose her to reproach, was thinking of putting her away privately. But while he was considering these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, Do not be afraid, Joseph, son of David, to take to you Mary your wife, for that which is begotten in her is of the Holy Spirit. And she shall bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name Jesus; for He shall save His people from -

3 their sins. Now all this came to pass that what was spoken by the Lord through the prophet might be fulfilled, Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son; and they shall call his name Emmanuel; which is interpreted, God with us. So Joseph, arising from sleep, did as the angel of the Lord had commanded him, and took Mary to be his wife. And he did not know her till she brought forth her firstborn son. And he called His name Jesus. النجيل )متى 25-1:1(: ن سب السيد المسيح كتاب ميالد يسوع المسيح ابن داود ابن إب ارهيم. فإب ارهيم ولد إسحق وإسحق ولد يعقوب ويعقوب ولد يهوذا وإخوته. ويهوذا ولد فارص و از ارح من تامار وفارص ولد حصرون وحصرون ولد أ ارم. وأ ارم ولد عميناداب وعميناداب ولد نحشون ونحشون ولد سلمون وسلمون ولد بوعز من ارحاب وبوعز ولد عوبيد من ارعوت وعوبيد ولد يس ى ويس ى ولد داود الملك. وداود الملك ولد سليمان من التي كانت ألوري ا. وسليمان ولد رحب عام ورحب عام ولد أبي ا وأب يا ولد آسا. وآسا ولد يوشافاط ويوشافاط ولد يو ارم ويو ارم ولد عزي ا. وعزي ا ولد يوآثام ويوآثام ولد آحاز وآحاز ولد حزقي ا وحزقي ا ولد منس ى ومنس ى ولد آمون وآمون ولد يوشي ا ويوشي ا ولد يكنيا وإخوته في جالء بابل. ومن بعد جالء بابل يكنيا ولد شألتيئيل وشألتيئيل ولد ز رب اب ل. وز رباب ل ولد أبيهود وأبيهود ولد ألياقيم وألياقيم ولد عازور. وعازور ولد صادوق وصادوق ولد آكيم وآكيم ولد أليهود. وأليهود ولد ألعازر وأل عازر ولد مت ان ومت ان ولد يعقوب. ويعقوب ولد يوسف رجل مريم التي منها ولد يسوع الذي يدعى المسيح. فكل األجيال من إب ارهي م إلى داود أربعة عشر جيال ومن داود إلى جالء بابل أربعة عشر جيال ومن جال ء بابل إلى المسيح أربعة عشر جيال. أما مولد يسوع المسيح فكان هكذا: لما خطبت مريم أمه ليوسف وج دت من قبل أن يسكنا معا حبلى من الروح القدس. وإذ كان يوسف رجلها صد يقا ولم يرد أن يشهرها عزم على تخلي تها س ار. وفيما هو يفكر في ذلك إذا بمالك الرب قد ت ارءى له في الحلم قائال : يا يوسف ابن داود ال تخف أن تأخذ ام أرتك مريم فإن المولود منها هو من الروح القدس. وستلد ابنا فتسميه يسوع ألنه هو الذي يخلص شعبه من خطاياهم. وكان هذا كل ه ليتم ما قال الرب بالنبي القائل: ها إن العذ ارء تحبل وتل د ابنا ويسم ى عم انوئيل الذي ترجمته هللا معنا. فلما نهض يوسف من النوم فعل كما أمر ه ولدت ابنها البكر فسم اه يسوع. مالك الرب فأخذ ام أرته. ولم يع رفها حتى الطلبات الملحة: Ecumenic Petitions: إلهنا إن نسبك إلى داود وإب ارهيم دليل قاطع على أن ك وأنت ابن هللا أصبحت في الحقيقة 1- أي ها الرب يسوع المسي ح شيء ما عدا الخطيئة. وقد فعلت ذلك طوع ا لخال صنا نظر ا لمح ب تك الال متناهية لبني البشر. هب لنا إنسان ا شبيه ا لنا في كل أن نعترف بإحسان ك ونمج دك بأعمال نا وأقوال نا. إليك نطلب يا رب فاستجب وارحم. 1- Lord Jesus Christ our God, your genealogy leading back to David and Abraham proves that -although Son of God- You really became man, similar to each one of us in everything except sin.

We are refreshing the program this year so that it is more driven by what the teenagers want to learn, want to experience and what we know they need to live godly and fulfilled lives. If you have a teenager, please have them come meet us. We meet on the first and third Sunday of the month. Our next meeting is Sunday, January 6, We invite all teens to join us and find out more about the group and to come together.

They are surrounded by the world who tells them that their faith is not important. SAYA meets on the second Sunday of each month at 10:30 a.m. in the rectory.
