ХРИСТОС ВОСКРЕС із мертвих, смертю смерть подолав і тим, що в гробах, ЖИТТЯ ДАPУВАВ! Christ is risen from the dead, trampling death by death and to those in the tombs He granted life. continued from cover page The Myrrh-bearing Women had seen that the stone was in fact already rolled away. They ran inside to find an angel sitting there pointing to the empty shroud that had once been wrapped around Jesus Christ. The angel had said to them, Do not be afraid! You have come looking for Jesus Christ. Why do you look among the dead? HE is risen! Go! Go and tell His disciples the good news! Just as the Myrrhbearing Women were instructed to go and spread the new of the Risen Lord, we too are called to do the same. As Christians we are called to be followers of Christ as well as evangelists, spreading the story of the Risen Lord. As we continue to rejoice in the Resurrection and recall the words of His Beatitude, our Major Archbishop Sviatoslav....this is called evangelization, that is, we want to be ourselves, to be a truly living Church of Christ, which aims to bring the Good News to every person that is sent to us by the Lord God. We should take from this statement and learn that every person we may encounter, we encounter for a reason. We are then to bring the Good News of the Resurrection to them. So here is a challenge to everyone. In the next few months and through the summer, do your best to evangelize. Spread the word to a stranger, a sibling, a children, a grandchild, or even your next door neighbor! Talk to them about the Good News. Bring them to church one day. Be the first to witness the empty tomb and go share the news of the Risen Lord!! A Reminder: All are reminded that it is our tradition to stand in prayer during the Easter season. There are two postures for prayer during the period from Easter to Pentecost standing or sitting. May Devotions - The month of May is devoted to the Blessed Virgin Mother Mary. A Moleben service will be offered on Wednesdays in May, at 7:00 p.m. with the exception of May 14th where the Moleben service is at 6:00 pm. Come to Church, join us in honouring her, whom God first honoured by choosing her to be the Mother of His Son.
