SUMMARY:Orthros & Divine Liturgy - Sunday of the Pharisee and Publican
DESCRIPTION:THE EPISTLE \n(For Sunday of the Pharisee and Publican) \nMy soul doth magnify the Lord\, and my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Savior. \nFor He hath regarded the humility of His servant.* \nThe Reading from the Second Epistle of St. Paul to St. Timothy. (3:10-15) \nTimothy my son\, you have observed my teaching\, my conduct\, my aim in life\, my faith\, my patience\, my love\, my steadfastness\, my persecutions\, and my sufferings; and what befell me at Antioch\, at Iconium\, and at Lystra. What persecutions I endured; yet from them all\, the Lord rescued me. Indeed all who desire to live a godly life in Christ Jesus will be persecuted\, while evil men and impostors will go on from bad to worse\, deceivers and deceived. But as for you\, continue in what you have learned and have firmly believed\, knowing from whom you learned it and how from childhood you have been acquainted with the sacred writings which are able to instruct you for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. \n* The Prokeimenon is for the Presentation\, in recognition of the Leave-taking of the Feast. \nTHE GOSPEL \n(For Sunday of the Pharisee and Publican) \nThe Reading from the Holy Gospel according to St. Luke. (18:10-14) \nThe Lord spoke this parable: “Two men went up into the temple to pray\, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself\, ‘God\, I thank Thee that I am not like other men\, extortionists\, unjust\, adulterers\, or even like this tax collector. I fast twice a week; I give tithes of all that I get.’ But the tax collector\, standing far off\, would not even lift up his eyes to Heaven\, but beat his breast\, saying\, ‘God\, be merciful to me a sinner!’ I tell you\, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled\, but he who humbles himself will be exalted.”

SUMMARY:Orthros & Divine Liturgy - The presentation of our Lord and Savior in the Temple
DESCRIPTION:THE EPISTLE \nMy soul doth magnify the Lord\, and my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Savior. \nFor He hath regarded the humility of His servant. \nThe Reading from the Epistle of St. Paul to the Hebrews. (7:7-17) \nBrethren\, it is beyond dispute that the inferior is blessed by the superior. Here tithes are received by mortal men; there\, by one of whom it is testified that he lives. One might even say that Levi himself\, who receives tithes\, paid tithes through Abraham\, for he was still in the loins of his ancestor when Melchizedek met him. Now if perfection had been attainable through the Levitical priesthood (for under it the people received the law)\, what further need would there have been for another priest to arise after the order of Melchizedek\, rather than one named after the order of Aaron? For when there is a change in the priesthood\, there is necessarily a change in the law as well. For the one of whom these things are spoken belonged to another tribe\, from which no one has ever served at the altar. For it is evident that our Lord was descended from Judah\, and in connection with that tribe Moses said nothing about priests. This becomes even more evident when another priest arises in the likeness of Melchizedek\, who has become a priest\, not according to a legal requirement concerning bodily descent but by the power of an indestructible life. For it is witnessed of him\, “Thou art a priest forever\, after the order of Melchizedek.” \nTHE GOSPEL \nThe Reading from the Holy Gospel according to St. Luke. (2:22-40) \nIn those days\, the parents of Jesus brought Him up to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord (as it is written in the law of the Lord\, “Every male that opens the womb shall be called holy to the Lord”)\, and to offer a sacrifice according to what is said in the law of the Lord\, “a pair of turtledoves\, or two young pigeons.” Now there was a man in Jerusalem\, whose name was Simeon\, and this man was righteous and devout\, looking for the consolation of Israel\, and the Holy Spirit was upon him. And it had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he should not see death before he had seen the Lord’s Christ. And inspired by the Spirit he came into the Temple; and when the parents brought in the child Jesus\, to do for him according to the custom of the law\, he took Him up in his arms and blessed God and said\, “Lord\, now lettest thou Thy servant depart in peace\, according to Thy word; for mine eyes have seen Thy salvation\, which Thou hast prepared in the presence of all peoples\, a light for revelation to the Gentiles\, and for glory to Thy people Israel.” And His father and his mother marveled at what was said about Him; and Simeon blessed them and said to Mary His mother\, “Behold\, this child is set for the fall and rising of many in Israel\, and for a sign that is spoken against (and a sword will pierce through your own soul also)\, that thoughts out of many hearts may be revealed.” And there was a prophetess\, Anna\, the daughter of Phanuel\, of the tribe of Asher; she was of a great age\, having lived with her husband seven years from her virginity\, and as a widow until she was eighty-four. She did not depart from the temple\, worshiping with fasting and prayer night and day. And coming up at that very hour she gave thanks to God\, and spoke of Him to all who were looking for the redemption of Jerusalem. And when they had performed everything according to the law of the Lord\, they returned into Galilee\, to their own city\, Nazareth. And the child grew and became strong\, filled with wisdom; and the favor of God was upon Him.

SUMMARY:Orthros and Divine Liturgy - 15th Sunday of Luke
DESCRIPTION:KONTAKION OF THE PRESENTATION OF CHRIST IN TONE ONE \nThou\, O Christ God\, Who by Thy Birth\, didst sanctify the Virgin’s womb\, and\, as is meet\, didst bless Simeon’s arms\, and didst also come to save us; preserve Thy fold in wars\, and confirm them whom Thou didst love\, for Thou alone art the Lover of mankind. \n\nTHE EPISTLE \n(For the Thirty-second Sunday after Pentecost) \nO Lord\, save Thy people and bless Thine inheritance. \nTo Thee\, O Lord\, have I cried\, O my God. \nThe Reading from the First Epistle of St. Paul to St. Timothy. (4:9-15) \nTimothy\, my son\, the saying is sure and worthy of full acceptance. For to this end we toil and strive\, because we have our hope set on the living God\, Who is the Savior of all men\, especially of those who believe. Command and teach these things. Let no one despise your youth\, but set the believers an example in speech and conduct\, in love\, in faith\, in purity. Until I come\, attend to the public reading of scripture\, to preaching\, to teaching. Do not neglect the gift you have\, which was given you by prophetic utterance when the council of elders laid their hands upon you. Practice these duties; devote yourself to them\, so that all may see your progress. \n\nTHE GOSPEL \n(For the Fifteenth Sunday of Luke—“Zacchaeus”) \nThe reading from the Holy Gospel according to St. Luke. (19:1-10) \nAt that time\, Jesus entered Jericho and was passing through. And there was a man named Zacchaeus; he was a chief tax collector\, and rich. And he sought to see Who Jesus was\, but could not\, on account of the crowd\, because he was small of stature. So he ran on ahead and climbed up into a sycamore tree to see Jesus\, for He was to pass that way. And when Jesus came to the place\, He looked up and said to him\, “Zacchaeus\, make haste and come down; for I must stay at your house today.” So he made haste and came down\, and received Him joyfully. And when they saw it they all murmured\, “He has gone in to be the guest of a man who is a sinner.” And Zacchaeus stood and said to the Lord\, “Behold\, Lord\, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have defrauded anyone of anything\, I restore it fourfold.” And Jesus said to him\, “Today salvation has come to this house\, since he also is a son of Abraham; for the Son of man came to seek and to save the lost.”

SUMMARY:Orthros and Divine Liturgy - 12th Sunday of Luke
DESCRIPTION:KONTAKION OF THE PRESENTATION OF CHRIST IN TONE ONE \nThou\, O Christ God\, Who by Thy Birth\, didst sanctify the Virgin’s womb\, and\, as is meet\, didst bless Simeon’s arms\, and didst also come to save us; preserve Thy fold in wars\, and confirm them whom Thou didst love\, for Thou alone art the Lover of mankind. \n\nTHE EPISTLE \n(For the Twenty-ninth Sunday after Pentecost) \nThou\, O Lord\, shalt preserve us and keep us from this generation. \nSave me\, O Lord\, for the godly man hath disappeared. \nThe Reading from the Epistle of St. Paul to the Colossians. (3:4-11) \nBrethren\, when Christ\, Who is our life\, appears\, then you also will appear with him in glory.  Put to death therefore what is earthly in you: fornication\, impurity\, passion\, evil desire\, and covetousness\, which is idolatry.  On account of these\, the wrath of God is coming upon the sons of disobedience.  In these you once walked\, when you lived in them.  But now put them all away: anger\, wrath\, malice\, slander\, and foul talk from your mouth.  Do not lie to one another\, seeing that you have put off the old nature with its practices and have put on the new nature\, which is being renewed in knowledge after the image of its Creator.  Here there cannot be Greek and Jew\, circumcised and uncircumcised\, barbarian\, Scythian\, slave\, free man\, but Christ is all\, and in all. \n\n\n\nTHE GOSPEL \n(For the Twelfth Sunday of Luke—“Ten Lepers”) \nThe reading from the Holy Gospel according to St. Luke. (17:12-19) \nAt that time\, as Jesus entered a village\, He was met by ten lepers\, who stood at a distance and lifted up their voices and said\, “Jesus\, Master\, have mercy on us.”  When He saw them He said to them\, “Go and show yourselves to the priests.”  And as they went they were cleansed.  Then one of them\, when he saw that he was healed\, turned back\, praising God with a loud voice; and he fell on his face at Jesus’ feet\, giving Him thanks.  Now he was a Samaritan.  Then Jesus said\, “Were not ten cleansed?  Where are the nine?  Was no one found to return and give praise to God except this foreigner?”  And He said to him\, “Rise and go your way; your faith has made you well.”

SUMMARY:Orthros and Divine Liturgy - Sunday after Epiphany
DESCRIPTION:KONTAKION OF THE THEOPHANY OF CHRIST IN TONE FOUR \n(**The original melody**) \nOn this day Thou hast appeared * unto the whole world\, * and Thy light\, O Sovereign Lord\, * is signed on us who sing Thy praise * and chant with knowledge: Thou hast now come\, * Thou hast appeared\, O Thou Light unapproachable. \n\nTHE EPISTLE \n(For the Sunday after Theophany of Christ) \nLet Thy mercy\, O Lord\, be upon us. Rejoice in the Lord\, O ye righteous. \nThe Reading from the Epistle of St. Paul to the Ephesians. (4:7-13) \nBrethren\, grace was given to each of us according to the measure of Christ’s gift.  Therefore\, it is said\, “When He ascended on high He led a host of captives\, and He gave gifts to men.”  (In saying\, “He ascended\,” what does it mean but that He had also descended into the lower parts of the earth?  He who descended is He who also ascended far above all the heavens\, that He might fill all things.)  And His gifts were that some should be apostles\, some prophets\, some evangelists\, some pastors and teachers\, to equip the saints for the work of ministry\, for building up the body of Christ\, until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God\, to mature manhood\, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ. \n\nTHE GOSPEL \n(For the Sunday after Theophany of Christ) \nThe reading from the Holy Gospel according to St. Matthew. (4:12-17) \nAt that time\, when Jesus heard that John had been arrested\, he withdrew into Galilee; and leaving Nazareth he went and dwelt in Capernaum by the sea\, in the territory of Zebulon and Naphtali\, so that what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah might be fulfilled: “The land of Zebulon and the land of Naphtali\, toward the sea\, across the Jordan\, Galilee of the Gentiles—the people who sat in darkness have seen a great light\, and for those who sat in the region and shadow of death light has dawned.” From that time Jesus began to preach\, saying\, “Repent\, for the kingdom of Heaven is at hand.”

SUMMARY:Feast of the Holy Theophany - Blessing of the water following the morning festal Divine Liturgy!
DESCRIPTION:KONTAKION OF THE FOREFEAST OF THEOPHANY IN TONE FOUR \n(**On this day Thou hast appeared**) \nIn the running waters of * the Jordan River\, * on this day the Lord of all * crieth to John: Be not afraid * and hesitate not to baptize Me\, * for I am come to save Adam\, the first-formed man. \n\nTHE EPISTLE \n(For the Sunday before the Theophany of Christ) \nO Lord\, save Thy people and bless Thine inheritance. Unto Thee\, O Lord\, will I cry\, O my God. \nThe Reading from the Second Epistle of St. Paul to St. Timothy. (4:5-8) \nMy child Timothy\, be watchful in all things\, suffer hardship\, do the work of an evangelist\, fulfill your ministry. For\, I am already being poured out as a libation\, and the season of my departure is at hand. I have fought the good fight\, I have finished the course\, and I have guarded the faith. Henceforth there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness\, which the Lord\, the righteous Judge\, will reward me at that day\, and not to me only\, but also to all those who have loved His appearing. \n\nTHE GOSPEL \n(For the Sunday before the Theophany of Christ) \nThe reading from the Holy Gospel according to St. Mark. (1:1-8) \nThe beginning of the Gospel of Jesus Christ\, the Son of God. As it is written in Isaiah the prophet\, “Behold\, I send my messenger before thy face\, who shall prepare thy way; the voice of one crying in the wilderness: Prepare the way of the Lord\, make his paths straight.” John the Baptizer appeared in the wilderness\, preaching a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. And there went out to him all the country of Judea\, and all the people of Jerusalem; and they were baptized by him in the river Jordan\, confessing their sins. Now John was clothed with camel’s hair\, and had a leather girdle around his waist\, and ate locusts and wild honey. And he preached\, saying\, “After me comes He Who is mightier than I\, the strap of Whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and untie. I have baptized you with water; but He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.”

SUMMARY:Divine Liturgy and Prayer for the new year - Feast of St. Basil the Great & Circumcision of the Lord
DESCRIPTION:THE EPISTLE \nMy mouth shall speak of wisdom; and the meditation of my heart shall be of understanding. \nHear this\, all ye people. \nThe reading from the Epistle of St. Paul to the Colossians. (2:8-12) \nBrethren\, see to it that no one makes a prey of you by philosophy and empty deceit\, according to human tradition\, according to the elemental spirits of the universe\, and not according to Christ. For in Him the whole fullness of the Godhead dwells bodily\, and you have come to fullness of life in Him\, Who is the head of all rule and authority. In Him also you were circumcised with a circumcision made without hands\, by putting off the body of flesh in the circumcision of Christ; and you were buried with Him in baptism\, in which you were also raised with Him through faith in the working of God\, Who raised Him from the dead. \n\nTHE GOSPEL \nThe reading from the Holy Gospel according to St. Luke. (2:20-21\, 40-52) \nAnd it came to pass that the shepherds returned\, glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen\, as it had been told them. And at the end of eight days\, when He was circumcised\, He was called Jesus\, the name given by the angel before He was conceived in the womb. And the child grew and became strong\, filled with wisdom; and the favor of God was upon Him. Now His parents went to Jerusalem every year at the feast of the Passover. And when He was twelve years old\, they went up according to custom; and when the feast was ended\, as they were returning\, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem. His parents did not know it\, but supposing Him to be in the company they went a day’s journey\, and they sought Him among their kinsfolk and acquaintances; and when they did not find Him\, they returned to Jerusalem\, seeking Him. After three days they found Him in the temple\, sitting among the teachers\, listening to them and asking them questions; and all who heard Him were amazed at His understanding and His answers. And when they saw Him they were astonished; and His mother said to Him\, “Son\, why hast Thou treated us so? Behold\, Thy father and I have been looking for Thee anxiously.” And Jesus said to them\, “How is it that you sought Me? Did you not know that I must be in My Father’s house?” And they did not understand the saying which He spoke to them. And He went down with them and came to Nazareth\, and was obedient to them; and His mother kept all these things in her heart.

SUMMARY:Orthros & Divine Liturgy – Sunday After Nativity
DESCRIPTION:THE EPISTLE \n(For the Sunday after Nativity of Christ) \nGod is wondrous in His saints. Bless God in the congregations. \nThe Reading from the Epistle of St. Paul to the Galatians. (1:11-19) \nBrethren\, I would have you know that the Gospel\, which was preached by me\, is not man’s gospel.  For I did not receive it from man\, nor was I taught it\, but it came through a revelation of Jesus Christ.  For you have heard of my former life in Judaism\, how I persecuted the Church of God violently and tried to destroy it; and I advanced in Judaism beyond many of my own age among my people; so extremely zealous was I for the traditions of my fathers.  But when He who had set me apart before I was born\, and had called me through His grace\, was pleased to reveal His Son to me\, in order that I might preach Him among the Gentiles\, I did not confer with flesh and blood\, nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me\, but I went away into Arabia; and again I returned to Damascus.  Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to visit Cephas\, and remained with him fifteen days.  But I saw none of the other apostles except James the Lord’s brother. \nTHE GOSPEL \n(For the Sunday after Nativity of Christ) \nThe Reading from the Holy Gospel according to St. Matthew. (2:13-23) \nWhen the wise men had departed\, behold\, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said\, “Rise\, take the Child and His mother\, and flee to Egypt\, and remain there until I tell you; for Herod is about to search for the Child\, to destroy Him.”  And he rose and took the Child and His mother by night\, and departed to Egypt\, and remained there until the death of Herod.  This was to fulfill what the Lord had spoken by the prophet\, “Out of Egypt have I called My Son.”  Then Herod\, when he saw that he had been tricked by the wise men\, was in a furious rage\, and he sent and killed all the male children in Bethlehem and in all that region\, who were two years old or under\, according to the time which he had ascertained from the wise men.  Then was fulfilled what was spoken by the prophet Jeremiah: “A voice was heard in Ramah\, wailing and loud lamentation\, Rachel weeping for her children; she refused to be consoled\, because they were no more.”  But when Herod died\, behold\, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt\, saying\, “Rise\, take the Child and His mother\, and go to the land of Israel\, for those who sought the Child’s life are dead.”  And he rose and took the Child and His mother\, and went to the land of Israel.  But when he heard that Archelaus reigned over Judea in place of his father Herod\, he was afraid to go there\, and being warned in a dream he withdrew to the district of Galilee.  And he went and dwelt in a city called Nazareth\, that what was spoken by the prophets might be fulfilled\, “He shall be called a Nazarene.”

SUMMARY:Orthros & Divine Liturgy – Sunday Before Nativity
DESCRIPTION:THE EPISTLE \n(For the Sunday before the Nativity) \nBlessed are Thou\, O Lord\, the God of our fathers. \nFor Thou art justified in all that Thou hast done for us. \nThe Reading from the Epistle of St. Paul to the Hebrews. (11:9-10\, 32-40) \nBrethren\, by faith Abraham sojourned in the land of promise\, as in a foreign land\, living in tents with Isaac and Jacob\, heirs with him of the same promise. For he looked forward to the city which has foundations\, whose builder and maker is God. And what more shall I say? For time would fail me to tell of Gideon\, Barak\, Samson\, Jephthah\, of David and Samuel and the prophets—who through faith conquered kingdoms\, enforced justice\, received promises\, stopped the mouths of lions\, quenched raging fire\, escaped the edge of the sword\, won strength out of weakness\, became mighty in war\, and put foreign armies to flight. Women received their dead by resurrection. Some were tortured\, refusing to accept release\, so that they might rise again to a better life. Others suffered mocking and scourging\, and even chains and imprisonment. They were stoned\, they were sawn in two\, they were killed with the sword; they went about in skins of sheep and goats\, destitute\, afflicted\, ill-treated—of whom the world was not worthy—wandering over deserts and mountains\, and in dens and caves of the earth. And all these\, though well attested by their faith\, did not receive what was promised\, since God had foreseen something better for us\, that apart from us they should not be made perfect. \n\nTHE GOSPEL \n(For the Sunday before the Nativity: “The Genealogy”) \nThe Reading from the Holy Gospel according to St. Matthew. (1:1-25) \nThe book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ\, the son of David\, the son of Abraham.  Abraham was the father of Isaac\, and Isaac the father of Jacob\, and Jacob the father of Judah and his brothers\, and Judah the father of Perez and Zerah by Tamar\, and Perez the father of Hezron\, and Hezron the father of Aram\, and Aram the father of Amminadab\, and Amminadab the father of Nahshon\, and Nahshon the father of Salmon\, and Salmon the father of Boaz by Rahab\, and Boaz the father of Obed by Ruth\, and Obed the father of Jesse\, and Jesse the father of David the king.  And David was the father of Solomon by the wife of Uriah\, and Solomon the father of Rehoboam\, and Rehoboam the father of Abijah\, and Abijah the father of Asa\, and Asa the father of Jehoshaphat\, and Jehoshaphat the father of Joram\, and Joram the father of Uzziah\, and Uzziah the father of Jotham\, and Jotham the father of Ahaz\, and Ahaz the father of Hezekiah\, and Hezekiah the father of Manasseh\, and Manasseh the father of Amon\, and Amon the father of Josiah\, and Josiah the father of Jechoniah and his brothers\, at the time of the deportation to Babylon.  And after the deportation to Babylon: Jechoniah was the father of Shealtiel\, and Shealtiel the father of Zerubbabel\, and Zerubbabel the father of Abiud\, and Abiud the father of Eliakim\, and Eliakim the father of Azor\, and Azor the father of Zadok\, and Zadok the father of Achim\, and Achim the father of Eliud\, and Eliud the father of Eleazar\, and Eleazar the father of Matthan\, and Matthan the father of Jacob\, and Jacob the father of Joseph the husband of Mary\, of whom Jesus was born\, Who is called Christ.  So all the generations from Abraham to David were fourteen generations\, and from David to the deportation to Babylon fourteen generations\, and from the deportation to Babylon to the Christ were fourteen generations.  Now the birth of Jesus Christ took place in this way.  When His mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph\, before they came together she was found to be with child of the Holy Spirit; and her husband Joseph\, being a just man and unwilling to put her to shame\, resolved to divorce her quietly.  But as he considered this\, behold\, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream\, saying\, “Joseph\, son of David\, do not fear to take Mary your wife\, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit; she will bear a son\, and you shall call His Name Jesus\, for He will save His people from their sins.”  All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had spoken by the prophet: “Behold\, a virgin shall conceive and bear a son\, and His Name shall be called Emmanuel” (which means\, God with us).  When Joseph woke from sleep\, he did as the angel of the Lord had commanded him; he took his wife\, but knew her not until she had borne a son; and he called His Name Jesus.

SUMMARY:Orthros & Divine Liturgy – Eleventh Sunday of Luke
DESCRIPTION:THE EPISTLE \n(For St. Eleutherios) \nPrecious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saint. \nWhat shall we render unto the Lord for all that He hath rendered unto us? \nThe Reading from the Second Epistle of St. Paul to St. Timothy. (1:8-18) \nTimothy\, my son\, do not be ashamed then of testifying to our Lord\, nor of me his prisoner\, but share in suffering for the gospel in the power of God\, Who saved us and called us with a holy calling\, not in virtue of our works but in virtue of his own purpose and the grace which he gave us in Christ Jesus ages ago\, and now has manifested through the appearing of our Savior Christ Jesus\, Who abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel. For this gospel I was appointed a preacher and apostle and teacher\, and therefore I suffer as I do. But I am not ashamed\, for I know Whom I have believed\, and I am sure that He is able to guard until that Day what has been entrusted to me. Follow the pattern of the sound words which you have heard from me\, in the faith and love which are in Christ Jesus; guard the truth that has been entrusted to you by the Holy Spirit Who dwells within us. You are aware that all who are in Asia turned away from me\, and among them Phygelos and Hermogenes. May the Lord grant mercy to the household of Onesiphoros\, for he often refreshed me; he was not ashamed of my chains\, but when he arrived in Rome he searched for me eagerly and found me. May the Lord grant him to find mercy from the Lord on that Day and you well know all the service he rendered at Ephesus. \n\nTHE GOSPEL \n(For the Holy Forefathers) \nThe Reading from the Holy Gospel according to St. Luke. (14:16-24) \nThe Lord spoke this parable: “A man once gave a great banquet\, and invited many; and at the time for the banquet he sent his servant to say to those who had been invited\, ‘Come; for all is now ready.’  But\, one by one\, they all began to make excuses.  The first said to him\, ‘I have bought a field\, and I must go out and see it; I pray you\, have me excused.’  And another said\, ‘I have bought five yoke of oxen\, and I go to examine them; I pray you\, have me excused.’  And another said\, ‘I have married a wife\, and therefore I cannot come.’  So the servant came and reported this to his master.  Then the householder in anger said to his servant\, ‘Go out quickly to the streets and lanes of the city\, and bring in the poor and maimed and blind and lame.’  And the servant said\, ‘Sir\, what you commanded has been done\, and still there is room.’  And the master said to the servant\, ‘Go out to the highways and hedges\, and compel people to come in\, that my house may be filled.  For I tell you\, none of those men who were invited shall taste my banquet.’  For many are called\, but few are chosen.”

SUMMARY:Orthros & Divine Liturgy – Tenth Sunday of Luke
DESCRIPTION:THE EPISTLE \n(For the Twenty-fourth Sunday after Pentecost) \nThe Lord will give strength to His people. \nAscribe to the Lord\, O sons of God\, ascribe to the Lord honor and glory. \nThe Reading from the Epistle of St. Paul to the Ephesians. (2:14-22) \nBrethren\, Christ is our peace\, Who has made us both one\, and has broken down the dividing wall of hostility\, by abolishing in His flesh the law of commandments and ordinances\, that He might create in Himself one new man in place of the two\, so making peace\, and might reconcile us both to God in one body through the Cross\, thereby bringing the hostility to an end.  And He came and preached peace to you\, who were far off\, and peace to those who were near; for through Him we both have access in one Spirit to the Father.  So then you are no longer strangers and sojourners\, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God\, built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets\, Christ Jesus Himself being the cornerstone\, in Whom the whole structure is joined together and grows into a holy temple in the Lord; in Whom you also are built into it for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit. \nTHE GOSPEL \n(For the Tenth Sunday of Luke) \nThe Reading from the Holy Gospel according to St. Luke. (13:10-17) \nAt that time\, Jesus was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath. And there was a woman who had had a spirit of infirmity for eighteen years; she was bent over and could not fully straighten herself. And when Jesus saw her\, He called her and said to her\, “Woman\, you are freed from your infirmity.” And He laid His hands upon her\, and immediately she was made straight\, and she praised God. But the ruler of the synagogue\, indignant because Jesus had healed on the Sabbath\, said to the people\, “There are six days on which work ought to be done; come on those days and be healed\, and not on the Sabbath day.” Then the Lord answered him\, “You hypocrite! Does not each of you on the Sabbath untie his ox or his ass from the manger\, and lead it away to water it? And ought not this woman\, a daughter of Abraham\, whom Satan bound for eighteen years\, be loosed from this bond on the Sabbath day?” As Jesus said this\, all His adversaries were put to shame; and all the people rejoiced at all the glorious things that were done by Him.

SUMMARY:Orthros and Divine Liturgy - Feast of Saint Nicholas the Wonderworker
DESCRIPTION:THE EPISTLE \nPrecious in the sight of the Lord is the death of His saints. \nWhat shall I render to the Lord for all that He has given me? \nThe Reading from the Epistle of St. Paul to the Hebrews. (13:17-21) \nBrethren\, obey your leaders and submit to them; for they are keeping watch over your souls\, as men who will have to give account.  Let them do this joyfully\, and not sadly\, for that would be of no advantage to you.  Pray for us\, for we are sure that we have a clear conscience\, desiring to act honorably in all things.  I urge you the more earnestly to do this in order that I may be restored to you the sooner.  Now may the God of peace Who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus\, the great shepherd of the sheep\, by the blood of the eternal covenant\, equip you with everything good that you may do His will\, working in you that which is pleasing in His sight\, through Jesus Christ; to Whom be glory forever and ever. Amen. \n\nTHE GOSPEL \nThe Reading from the Holy Gospel according to St. Luke. (6:17-23) \nAt that time\, Jesus stood on a level place\, with a great crowd of His Disciples and a great multitude of people from all Judea and Jerusalem and the seacoast of Tyre and Sidon\, who came to hear Him and to be healed of their diseases; and those who were troubled with unclean spirits were cured.  And all the crowd sought to touch Him\, for power came forth from Him and healed them all.  And Jesus lifted up His eyes on His Disciples\, and said: “Blessed are you poor\, for yours is the kingdom of God.  Blessed are you that hunger now\, for you shall be satisfied.  Blessed are you that weep now\, for you shall laugh.  Blessed are you when men hate you\, and when they exclude you and revile you\, and cast out your name as evil\, on account of the Son of man!  Rejoice in that day\, and leap for joy\, for behold\, your reward is great in Heaven.”

SUMMARY:Orthros & Divine Liturgy – Fourteenth Sunday of Luke
DESCRIPTION:THE EPISTLE \n(For the Twenty-third Sunday after Pentecost) \nO Lord\, save Thy people and bless Thine inheritance. \nTo Thee\, O Lord\, have I cried\, O my God. \nThe Reading from the Epistle of St. Paul to the Ephesians. (2:4-10) \nBrethren\, God\, Who is rich in mercy\, out of the great love with which He loved us\, even when we were dead through our trespasses\, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved)\, and raised us up with Him\, and made us sit with Him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus\, that in the coming ages He might show the immeasurable riches of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.  For by grace you have been saved through faith; and this is not your own doing\, it is the gift of God—not because of works\, lest any man should boast.  For\, we are His workmanship\, created in Christ Jesus for good works\, which God prepared beforehand\, that we should walk in them. \n\nTHE GOSPEL \n(For the Fourteenth Sunday of Luke) \nThe Reading from the Holy Gospel according to St. Luke. (18:35-43) \nAt that time\, when Jesus drew near to Jericho\, a blind man was sitting by the roadside begging; and hearing a multitude going by\, he inquired what this meant. They told him\, “Jesus of Nazareth is passing by.” And he cried\, “Jesus\, Son of David\, have mercy on me!” And those who were in front rebuked him\, telling him to be silent; but he cried out all the more\, “Son of David\, have mercy on me!” And Jesus stopped\, and commanded him to be brought to him; and when he came near\, Jesus asked him\, “What do you want me to do for you?” He said\, “Lord\, let me receive my sight.” And Jesus said to him\, “Receive your sight; your faith has made you well.” And immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus\, glorifying God; and all the people\, when they saw it\, gave praise to God.

SUMMARY:Orthros & Divine Liturgy - Thirteenth Sunday of Luke
DESCRIPTION:THE EPISTLE\n(For the Twenty-Second Sunday after Pentecost)\nThou\, O Lord\, shalt preserve us and keep us from this generation.\nSave me\, O Lord\, for the godly man hath disappeared.\nThe Reading from the Epistle of St. Paul to the Galatians. (6:11-18)\nBrethren\, see with what large letters I am writing to you with my own hand. It is those who want to make a good showing in the flesh that would compel you to be circumcised and only in order that they may not be persecuted for the cross of Christ. For even those who receive circumcision do not themselves keep the Law\, but they desire to have you circumcised that they may glory in your flesh. But far be it from me to glory except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ\, by which the world has been crucified to me and I to the world. For neither circumcision counts for anything\, nor uncircumcision\, but a new creation. Peace and mercy be upon all\, who walk by this rule\, upon the Israel of God. Henceforth let no man trouble me; for I bear on my body the marks of Jesus. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit\, brethren. Amen. \nTHE GOSPEL\n(For the Thirteenth Sunday of Luke)\nThe Reading from the Holy Gospel according to St. Luke. (18:18-27)\nAt that time\, a man came testing Jesus and asking\, “Good Teacher\, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?” And Jesus said to him\, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good but God alone. You know the commandments: ‘Do not commit adultery. Do not kill. Do not steal. Do not bear false witness. Honor your father and mother.’” And the man said\, “All these I have observed from my youth.” And when Jesus heard it\, he said to him\, “One thing you still lack. Sell all that you have and distribute to the poor\, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come\, follow Me.” But when the man heard this he became sad\, for he was very rich. Jesus\, seeing him sad\, said\, “How hard it is for those who have riches to enter the kingdom of God! For it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.” Those who heard it said\, “Then who can be saved?” Jesus said\, “What is impossible with men is possible with God.”

SUMMARY:Orthros & Divine Liturgy - Ninth Sunday of Luke
DESCRIPTION:THE EPISTLE\n(For the Twenty-First Sunday after Pentecost)\nO Lord\, how magnified are Thy works. In wisdom hast Thou made them all.\nBless the Lord\, O my soul.\nThe Reading from the Epistle of St. Paul to the Galatians. (2:16-20)\nBrethren\, you know that a man is not justified by works of the Law but through faith in Jesus Christ. Even we have believed in Christ Jesus\, in order to be justified by faith in Christ\, and not by works of the Law\, because by works of the Law shall no one be justified. But if\, in our endeavor to be justified in Christ\, we ourselves were found to be sinners\, is Christ then an agent of sin? Certainly not! But if I build up again those things which I tore down\, then I prove myself a transgressor. For I through the Law died to the Law\, that I might live to God. I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live\, but Christ Who lives in me; and the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God\, Who loved me and gave Himself for me. \n\nTHE GOSPEL\n(For the Ninth Sunday of Luke)\nThe Reading from the Holy Gospel according to St. Luke. (12:16-21)\nThe Lord spoke this parable: “The land of a rich man brought forth plentifully; and he thought to himself\, ‘What shall I do\, for I have nowhere to store my crops?’ And he said\, ‘I will do this: I will pull down my barns\, and build larger ones; and there I will store all my grain and my goods. And I will say to my soul\, Soul\, you have ample goods laid up for many years; take your ease\, eat\, drink\, be merry.’ But God said to him\, ‘Fool! This night your soul is required of you; and the things you have prepared\, whose will they be?’ So is he who lays up treasure for himself\, and is not rich toward God.” As He said this\, Jesus called out\, “He who has ears to hear\, let him hear.”
