1 Ninth Sunday of Pentecost Saint Maron Church 350 Martyrs July 30, 2017 The Old Testament contains many passages of God selecting and anointing someone for a special role. Moses is chosen through life circumstance as an infant and through a divine call in the form of the Burning Bush. Isaiah is shown a vision of heaven, and given direction from God seated on a heavenly throne. Saul and David are visited by the prophet Samuel each in turn, and told that God has chosen them as king. Solomon is chosen because of the sin of his father. Jacob is called through a vision to his mother, and the gluttony of his brother. Abraham received a divine call to leave his homeland. God called Noah because Noah alone was faithful. God selected holy men and women as judges, including the prophetess Deborah. The New Testament recounts the call of Mary, visited by the angel Gabriel; Zechariah visited in the temple; the 12 Apostles, selected by Jesus from all walks of life; and Paul, called on the road to Damascus while on a mission to arrest and kill the followers of Jesus. Many of these calls involved miraculous encounters. Yet, this week we celebrate the memory of martyrs. So many of the martyrs come to us nameless, after having lived Christian lives and, often unexpectedly, faced death for their faith. The martyrs were called at the end of their lives to give witness to the one for whom they have lived their lives. In most cases they received no miraculous call, but simply answered the call of faith- that they would rise again, and the call of love- that Jesus was worth living and dying for. We await a miraculous call as an excuse to ignore the call of faith and love. Yet, Christian history is written in the lives and deaths of those who answered this simple call. I want to live and die, not as a member of some group, or a worker in some career, or by some earthly trait or hobby, but rather as one who believes and loves, because Jesus revealed Himself to me, and loved me to the point of shedding his blood.

We learn of the martyrdom of the 350 Monks in a letter from the monks to Pope Hormisdas in the year 517. They described the suffering and attacks they are enduring, particularly from the Antiochian Patriarchs Severus and Peter who opposed the teachings of the Council of Chalcedon. They described that they were mocked for their support of the Council and were suffering afflictions. The described how the Emperor Anastasius had sent an army that had marched through the district of Apamea closing monasteries and expelling the monks. Some monks had been beaten and others had been thrown into prison. While on their way to St. Simon Stylite, the Maronites had been ambushed and 350 monks were killed, even though some of them had taken refuge at the altar. The monastery was burned. The letter was signed by Alexander, priest and archimandrite and over 200 other signatures followed, of other archimandrites, priests and deacons. We pray that like the 350 Martyrs we are always obedient to the teachings of the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church. We welcome all those who are attending Liturgy for the first time at St. Maron this weekend, vacationers, or those from another parish. Please know you are always welcome at St. Maron Church! IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT: PLEASE READ If you are in need of any special document or letter written by one of the priests, you must call THREE WEEKS IN ADVANCE SO A MEETING CAN BE SCHEDULED. Please do not wait until the last minute when traveling abroad to request an important letter. Thank you

Brothers and sisters, We are ambassadors for Christ, since God is making his appeal through us; we entreat you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God. As we work together with him, we urge you also not to accept the grace of God in vain. For he says, At an acceptable time I have listened to you, and on a day of salvation I have helped you. See, now is the acceptable time; see, now is the day of salvation! We are putting no obstacle in anyone s way, so that no fault may be found with our ministry, but as servants of God we have commended ourselves in every way: through great endurance, in afflictions, hardships, calamities, beatings, imprisonments, riots, labors, sleepless nights, hunger; by purity, knowledge, patience, kindness, holiness of spirit, genuine love, truthful speech, and the power of God; with the weapons of righteousness for the right hand and for the left; in honor and dishonor, in ill repute and good repute. We are treated as impostors, and yet are true; as unknown, and yet are well known; as dying, and see we are alive; as punished, and yet not killed; as sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, and yet possessing everything. Praise be to God always! إنجيل القد يس لوقا 4:14-21 From the Holy Gospel according to Saint Luke قال يوحنا الرسول: ع اد ي س وع ب ق و ة الر وح إ لى الج ل يل وذ اع خ ب ر ه في ك ل الج و ار. وكان ي ع ل م في م ج ام ع ه م والج م يع ي م ج د ون ه. وج اء ي س وع إ لى الن اص ر ة ح ي ث ن ش أ ود خ ل إ لى الم ج م ع ك ع اد ت ه ي و م الس ب ت وق ام ل ي ق ر أ. و د ف ع إ ل يه ك ت اب الن ب ي آش ع يا. وف ت ح ي س وع الك ت اب ف و ج د الم و ض ع الم ك ت وب ف يه: "ر وح الر ب عل ي ول هذ ا م س ح ني أل ب ش ر الم س اك ين وأ ر س ل ن ي أل ن اد ي ب إ ط الق األ س ر ى وع و د ة الب ص ر إ لى الع م ي ان وأ ط ل ق الم ق ه ور ين أ حر ار ا وأ ن اد ي ب س ن ة م ق ب ول ة ل د ى الر ب." ث م ط و ى الك ت اب وأ ع اد ه إ لى الخ اد م و ج ل س. وك ان ت ع ي ون ج م يع ال ذ ين في الم ج م ع ش اخ ص ة إ ل ي ه. فب د أ ي ق ول ل ه م:»أ لي و م ت م ت هذ ه الك ت اب ة ال تي ت ل ي ت على م س ام ع ك م«. حقا واألمان لج ميع ك م The evangelist writes, Then Jesus, filled with the power of the Spirit, returned to Galilee, and a report about him spread through all the surrounding country. He began to teach in their synagogues and was praised by everyone. When he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, he went to the synagogue on the sabbath day, as was his custom. He stood up to read, and the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was given to him. He unrolled the scroll and found the place where it was written: The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to bring good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim release to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to let the oppressed go free, to proclaim the year of the Lord s favor. And he rolled up the scroll, gave it back to the attendant, and sat down. The eyes of all in the synagogue were fixed on him. Then he began to say to them, Today this scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing. This is the Truth! Peace be with you.
