1 Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God. Romans 10:17 the word Sts. Constantine & Helen Greek Orthodox Church Andover, MA June 2018 Here is why you need to know the Truth Message by Fr. Christopher Much of the news and media today peddles information that is distorted, biased and opinionated. And so therefore it s very difficult for people to get the facts and raw truth of what is really going on in the world. Morning Meditations June 13: 10 a.m. June 3 - Senior Recognition (high school and college graduates) June 10 - Sunday School Graduation & Anniversary Brunch In addition, much of the news being reported today is not really important news at all. It is tabloid, shock value stories that seek to simply grab attention and sell advertising. Also, this type of news leaves people feeling sad, depressed and fearful. Meanwhile the truly important news and information of the day is barely being covered at all. And so we the people are being left in the dark, having to seek and search to find the truth. So this is the news and information environment we live in. But there is a solution. The Gospel. The Gospel is called the Good News. It is the True News. The Gospel is the true story of Jesus Christ who came into the world to reveal the very purpose and meaning of our life. So where do we get this "Good News?" We find it every time we open the Bible and read one of the Gospels: Matthew, Mark, Luke or John. We also hear the truth every time we come to Liturgy and worship and listen to the prayers, hymns and Gospel being proclaimed. Beloved, we all need this kind of news! We need to know the truth. It s relevant, its practical, and it affects how we live now, today. The Bible teaches that if you believe in Jesus, "you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free!" (John 8:32). The Gospel sets us free and counteracts the deception of false news and information of the world. VCS 2018 August 13, 14 & 15 Summer Schedule Begins June 17 Metropolis Summer Camp See schedule on page 3 Get news of additional events and announcements via . Go to the church website and sign up to be on our LISTSERV. And it s not just about hearing it once. But continually hearing, reading, listening, and believing in the Gospel truth of Jesus Christ changes us! It gives us greater understanding of who were are and the purpose of our lives. The Gospel fills us with hope, wisdom and knowledge. It comforts us, fulfills us with love and strengthens us. And indeed, this Good news never ends. (1 Corinthians 13:8) Don t be deceived by the world. Learn, believe and follow the positive, uplifting, joyful news of the Gospel of Jesus Christ Amen! ANDOVER GREEK FESTIVAL September 8 & 9 Sts.

Anton James Lolos Telly Papanikolaou The Word Elizabeth Xaros Bigelow, Editor Parish Council Notes Dear Parishioners, In May, Sandy and I had the honor of attending the baptism of the granddaughter of dear friends. What made this a very special event was the fact that the baby s mother grew up in our church, she was married in our church, moved away, and then returned to our church to baptize her children. As Father Chris began the baptism, he said this sacrament is rich in the symbolism and meaning of our Orthodox religion. What struck me as beautiful symbolism was that the baby s mother returned to her home parish for these sacraments. May we all be so fortunate with the children of our parish. Speaking of the youth of our community, I want to congratulate the finalists in this year s Metropolis Oratorical Festival: Junior Division, Soultana Tsaparlis, Erin Trant, and Theo Trant; and, in the Senior Division: Alexandra Trant and Michaelangelo Tsaparlis. We are all proud of them! June will be a very busy month for us at Saints Constantine and Helen. We will have two graduations. On Sunday, June 3, we will recognize and honor our high school and college graduates. On Sunday, June 10, we will have our Sunday School Graduation. Both of these events are always uplifting as we hear where our high schoolers will be going on to college and what they will be studying, and we hear what the younger children learned all year in Sunday School. Sunday, June 10 is going to be very special day for our entire parish family. We will be celebrating the 20 th anniversary of Fr. Chris and Presvytera Katerina at our church! After Divine Liturgy and the Sunday School graduation, the Parish Council and Philoptochos will host a luncheon to celebrate their twenty year ministry and service to our parish community. Please plan to come and celebrate Father and Presvytera. Also, on Father s Day, Sunday, June 17, we will start summer hours. May God be with you and your family, Buzz Stapczynski Parish Council President Well wishes and prayers to Dn. Sal, Angela, Andrew, and Elias on their move to Texas! Dn. Sal served as one of our parish deacons for the past nine years. We thank him for his devotion and service to our Church. 2
