4 Pastoral Message Dear Parishioners of our Beloved Assumption, Greetings in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! The period of the Great and Holy Lent is now upon us, and soon we will pass from the time of preparation and penitence into a time of joy and feasting (but we ll leave our feasting until April). Holy Lent brings us many beautiful liturgical services filled with some of the most beautiful and moving hymns and prayers. During March, 3 such services will be celebrated: the Great Compline on Mondays, the Divine Liturgy of the Presanctified Gifts on Wednesdays, and the Salutations to the Theotokos on Fridays. Each of these services is so unique and differs so greatly from the normal Sunday Divine Liturgy, that they present us with opportunities to experience our faith in ways that may stimulate spiritual growth. If we feel stalled or that our faith has fallen into a routine, come and participate in the beauty of the Lenten cycle (by the way, routine can be good or bad - brushing your teeth properly is a good routine, not brushing bad). During this time, many of our faithful will increase their fasting and praying in their own homes, but it is also important that we come to the Lord s House and pray together as a community. Great Lent is filled with opportunity for spiritual growth. It takes all the necessary elements and blends them into the perfect combination to allow for a complete transformation of the soul in a short 48 day period. Begin with fasting and prayer, add the liturgy of the Church and finish with Holy Confession and the celebration of the Resurrection of the Lord - this is the map for spiritual health. Follow it year after year to eternity. In His Service, Rev. Father Jon Boukis Proistamenos Attract, Serve, Illuminate

13 Great and Holy Lent The Liturgical services of the Church are filled with beautiful hymns whose imagery can truly move you. This is especially true during the services of Great and Holy Lent! Don t let another year pass by without experiencing the Great Compline on the Mondays of Lent; the Divine Liturgy of the Presanctified Gifts on the Wednesdays of Lent and the Salutations to the Theotokos on the Fridays of Great Lent. Make this the year that you attend all the services as you fast and pray in preparation for the Crucifixion and Resurrection of the Lord!!! Fasting without Prayer is like driving a car without gasoline Fasting allows each of us to create within us a controlled need for the Lord...it is preparing the ground for planting. We must sow into our fasting the seeds of prayer. During Great Lent, pray the Prayer of St. Ephrem...then reflect on its meaning. Allow this powerful prayer of the Lenten Season to reside in your heart, which fasting has softened! Lenten Prayer of St. Ephrem the Syrian O Lord and Master of my life! Take from me the spirit of sloth, faint-heartedness, lust of power, and idle talk. But give rather the spirit of chastity, humility, patience, and love to Thy servant. Yea, Lord and King! Grant me to see my own errors and not to judge my brother, for Thou art blessed unto ages of ages. Amen.
