2 Living the Word of Christ Together January 29: Three Holy Hierarchs Pastor: Deacons: Office Administrator: Rectory Phone: Office Phone: Fax: website: The feast originated around the year 1100 in Byzantium to settle a dispute over which of the three bishops was more important (St. Basil, St. John Chrysostom, or St. Gregory). The feast was established reportedly after a monk received a vision and was instructed that all three were of equal status. Father Bruce Riebe Bill Fredrick, Robert Kirschner Michele Wiltshire stjoebyz@sbcglobal.net There are certain characteristics appropriate to the rank of bishop which all three exhibit. All three are dressed in the omophorian, typically wearing the polystarion (multi-crossed) sakkos or phelonion. The alternating light and dark colored cross pattern which compose this vestment reminds the bishop of the many crosses which he takes upon himself in the service of his faithful in the diocese. He serves as the teacher, the maintainer of true doctrines, the disciplinarian, and beloved father for his clergy and faithful. All three figures reverently clasp a book of gospels. Even though these three hierarchs wrote copious volumes of sermons, scripture interpretation, divine liturgies and monastic rules, they are depicted with the Gospel of Jesus Christ, which supersedes any of their writings. This points out the pre-eminence of the bishop s task in the proclamation of the Good News of the Gospel. All three countenances of the bishops also portray them as men of prayer and frequent fasting. Prominent foreheads for each of these saints indicate the profound wisdom each pondered and taught during their lives, indicating that the Holy Spirit was upon them. Each is bearded, indicating maturity in the spiritual life. All three hierarchs are vested in liturgical vestments which underline their role as presider in the celebration of the Eucharist. Let us join together in prayer honoring them with hymns. Friday is a Simple Holyday. The liturgy will be celebrated at 7:00 p.m. (The usual date for this Feast is the 30 th, but because of the first All Souls Saturday, the commemoration is moved ahead one day.)

There will be a Requiem Liturgy starting at 9:00. A number of hymns will be sung in Old Slavonic (the requiem melodies flow better in that language). At the close of the liturgy a Panachida (prayer service for the deceased) will be taken along with the reading of the Hramoty names of our departed family members.

We are one of six parishes sponsoring this event (along with St. Basil, Assumption, St. Michael, St. Columbkille and St. Matthias). Tickets will be available soon.

5 Mulligans and God s Ways Let s say that while playing a friendly game of golf, your tee shot goes into the creek instead of on the green. It s a horrible shot, but a mulligan can wipe the slate clean and all you to try the shot again without having to count the previous bad shot in the score. Simply defined, a mulligan provides a perfect second chance to erase a misstep on the golf course as well as in other areas of life. The parable to the Prodigal Son is a perfect Scriptural example of the gift of a mulligan. Long before the younger son reaches home, his father runs to welcome him and erase the distance between them with an unconditional love reflective of God. Forgiveness and reconciliation come before the one who needs it asks. God always offers us a mulligan and He does it with no strings attached. However, God expects that as we pray forgive us our trespasses as we forgive others who trespass against us, we also will offer mulligans to others our children, our spouse, our friends, and those folks we really do not tolerate very well. May we always remember that a mulligan is God s loving gift to us, and one we need to pass on to someone else because of that love. Second chances and do-overs are a beautiful thing! God s capacity to forgive is greater than our capacity to sin; while our sin reaches far, God s grace reaches farther.
