SECOND SUNDAY AFTER PENTECOST
EPISTLE: Rom 2,10-16 & GOSPEL: Mt 4,18-23
Brethren: There will be glory, honor, and peace for everyone
who does good, Jew first and then Greek. There is no partiality
with God. All who sin outside the law will also perish without
reference to it, and all who sin under the lawwill be judged in
accordance with it. For it is not those who hear the law who are
just in the sight of God; rather, those who observe the law will be
justified. For when the Gentiles who do not have the law by
nature observe the prescriptions of the law, they are a law for
themselves even though they do not have the law. They show
that the demands of the law are written in their hearts, while their
conscience also bears witness and their conflicting thoughts
accuse or even defend them on the day when, according to my
gospel, God will judge people's hidden works through
Christ Jesus.
GOSPEL: Mt 4,18-23
At that time, as Jesus was walking by the Sea of Galilee, he saw
two brothers, Simon who is called Peter, and his brother Andrew,
casting a net into the sea; they were fishermen. He said to them,
“Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.” At once
they left their nets and followed him. He walked along from there
and saw two other brothers, James, the son of Zebedee, and his
brother John. They were in a boat, with the father Zebedee,
mending their nets. He called them and immediately they left
their boat and their father and followed him. He went around all
of Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the gospel
of the kingdom, and curing every disease and illness among the
people.

2-а НЕДІЛЯ ПО ЗІСЛАННІ СВ. ДУХА
АПОСТОЛ: Рим 2,10-16 & ЄВАНГЕЛІЄ: Мт 4,18-23
Браття, слава ж і честь, мир усякому, то чинить добро:
юдеєві перше, а потім грекові, бо Бог не вважає на особу.
Бо ті, що згрішили поза законом, поза законом і згинуть; а
ті, що згрішили під законом, будуть суджені законом. Бо не
слухачі закону справедливі перед Богом, а виконавці
закону оправдаються. Бо коли погани, що не мають закону,
з природи виконують те, що законне, вони виявляють діло
закону, написане в їхніх серцях, як свідчить їм їхнє
сумління і думки, то засуджуючи їх, то оправдуючи, - в
день, коли Бог, згідно з моєю Євангелією, судитиме тайні
вчинки людей через Ісуса Христа.
ЄВАНГЕЛІЄ: Мт 4,18-23
Того часу, Ісус, йдучи попри Галилейське море, побачив
двох братів: Симона, що звався Петром, і Андрія, його
брата, що закидали сіті у море, бо були рибалки. І до них
мовив: “Ідіть за мною, я вас зроблю рибалками людей.” І ті
негайно пішли за ним. Пройшовши звідтіль далі, побачив
інших двох братів: Якова, сина Заведея, та Івана, його
брата, що в човні з батьком Заведеєм лагодили свої сіті, і їх
покликав. Вони зараз же, кинувши човни і свого батька,
пішли слідом за ним. І ходив Ісус по всій Галилеї,
навчаючи по їхніх синагогах, звіщаючи Добру Новину про
Царство й вигоюючи всяку хворобу й всяку недугу в
народі.

24 years ago, on June 11 in 2002, our beloved Bishop Paul was ordained to the episcopacy at the Cathedral of St. Basil the Great in Edmonton, Canada. The principal consecrator was the late Patriarch, His Beatitude Lubomyr Husar, alongside co-consecrators Metropolitan Michael Bzdel and Bishop Lawrence Huculak.
Today, we are so incredibly grateful to have him leading our community here as the Bishop of Stamford.
Please join us in prayer today as we thank God for Bishop Paul’s dedicated leadership, wisdom, and pastoral heart. May the Lord grant him continued health and strength for many more blessed years!
Многая літа, Владико Павле! 🔹 Many Happy and Blessed Years!

SUNDAY OF ALL SAINTS
EPISTLE: Heb 11:33-40; 12:1-2 & GOSPEL: Mt 10:32-33, 37-38; 19:27-30
Brethren: All saints, who by faith conquered kingdoms, did what was righteous, obtained the promises; they closed the mouths of lions, put out raging fires, escaped the devouring sword; out of weakness they were made powerful, became strong in battle, and turned back foreign invaders. Women received back their dead through resurrection. Some were tortured and would not accept
deliverance, in order to obtain a better resurrection. Others endured mockery, scourging, even chains and imprisonment. They were stoned, sawed in two, put to death at sword’s point; they went about in skins of sheep or goats, needy, afflicted, tormented. The world was not worthy of them. They wandered about in deserts and on mountains, in caves and in crevices in the earth. Yet all these,
though approved because of the faith, did not receive what had been promised. God had foreseen something better for us, so that without us they should not be made perfect. Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us rid ourselves of every burden and sin that clings to us and persevere in running the race that lies before us while keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus, the leader and perfecter of faith. For the sake of the joy that lay before him he endured the cross, despising its shame, and has taken his seat at the right of the throne of God.
GOSPEL: Mt 10:32-33, 37-38; 19:27-30
The Lord said to his disciples: “Everyone who acknowledges me before others I will acknowledge [him] before my heavenly Father. But whoever denies me before others, I will deny before my heavenly Father. Whoever loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me and whoever loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me; and whoever does not take up his cross and follow after me is not worthy of me.” Then Peter said to him in reply, “We have given up everything and followed you. What will there be for us?” Jesus said to them, “Amen, I say to you that you who have followed me, in the new age, when the Son of Man is seated on his throne of glory, will yourselves sit on the twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. And everyone who has given up houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or lands for the sake of my name will receive a hundred times more, and will inherit eternal life. But many who are first will be last, and the last will be first.”
