Parish Priest

My Beloved, March is the month of the Annunciation of the Virgin Mary! At the same time, March is always

part of Great Lent. This is no coincidence. Our Church Fathers intentionally placed the Feast of Annunciation 4

days after March 21st (the vernal equinox, which marks the beginning of Spring), and Easter on the first Sunday

after the first full moon of Spring AND after the Jewish Passover (a rule set by the 1st Ecumenical Council of

Nicea in 325 AD). This is because both Annunciation and Easter are related to the rebirth of nature. Rebirth, not

necessarily only of the nature around us, but more importantly, rebirth of our own nature. Yet, this rebirth

inside of us does not happen without effort. It requires imitating Christ in fasting for 40 days. It requires giving

to charity the money we save by eating less. It requires praying more often by attending the Lenten services we

will have Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 6:00 PM during most of March and April. Finally, it requires

confessing our sins. This is not done “directly” to God or to an icon, both of which are non-Orthodox AND

non-Roman Catholic approaches to this Sacrament, but to St. Peter’s successors, the Bishops and their priests, as

our Lord explicitly instructs us in John 20:23 and Matthew 16:19, and James 5:16! Please do not skip Holy

Confession. You are free to confess to any Orthodox priest anywhere! So, please find a confessor/spiritual father

you are comfortable with and take this important and salvific step of opening your heart to him.

On the day of Annunciation, the Virgin Mary agrees to give flesh to the Word of God in the person of the

historical Christ Jesus. On the day of Easter, Jesus Christ becomes the first man who escapes from the snare of

death - He becomes the first-born of Hades! But, was Jesus the first one resurrected according to the Holy Bible?

He was not! There are six resurrections recorded in Scripture prior to Jesus’ – not counting the Holy Men

resurrected in Jerusalem at the time He gave up His Spirit on Holy Friday. What is different with His Holy

Resurrection though, is that all previous resurrections were temporary. That is, those resurrected received their

old bodies and that meant they had to die again later. Jesus, however, did not and will not taste death again. His

body at His Resurrection is not the same body he had while He was teaching. His Holy Body remains physical

but yet exalted, which is represented by a body-sized blue halo on Byzantine icons. This means it is forever

liberated from death. “Death no longer has dominion over Him” (Rom. 6:9). Something He promised will also

happen to our own bodies at the General Resurrection.

With the Annunciation, our Panagia Theotokos, the Most Holy Mother of God, becomes a bridge connecting

heaven and earth. She is helping God descent on earth, so all men can ascent to heaven. On Easter, the Son of

God, who became Son of Man, breaks the bondage of man to eternal death the serpent setup on the Tree of Life.

After His Holy Resurrection, death becomes temporary. After His Holy Resurrection death is only a sleep, a sleep

which will be interrupted by the Archangel’s voice and the trumpet of God on our Lord’s glorious return.

Annunciation and Easter! Two gateways to eternal life with a spring aroma. Two invitations to change our own

nature. Two opportunities to use the time of Great Lent for bodily and spiritual transformation through fasting,

almsgiving, prayer, repentance. Two occasions to attend more church services, to receive Holy Communion

more often and to confess our sins. Blessed Great Lent to all!

With Love in Christ, Your Parish Priest, Fr. Gregory

Kathara Deftera Celebration

& Potluck Dinner

in our Church Hall

Monday, March 2nd

4:00 - 6:00 PM

All families, parishioners and friends are welcome!

There will be activities for the children, fellowship and good food for all!

Please bring a Lenten dish or dessert (such as Halva) to share….

Kathara Deftera is also known as Ash Monday or Clean Monday

It is the first day of Great Lent in the Orthodox Church, which starts 7 weeks before Easter Sunday.

It is called "clean," because we leave behind all sinful attitudes and non-fasting foods.

It is a day for all children, because in the old country schools were traditionally closed, so

children could go to the parks and countryside to fly kites.

It is also a day for adults, because they traditionally organize picnics with Lenten food.

But all and all, it is an opportunity to be with friends and relatives, and to remember one’s own

childhood by helping the young ones with their kites!

WE HOPE TO SEE ALL OF YOU TO CELEBRATE THIS IMPORTANT DAY TOGETHER!

KALA KOULOUMA! (This is the traditional wish shared on that day!)

PLANNED GIVING is a gesture that comes from the heart!

Leave a legacy! As you plan your financial future, please remember your parish. There are several types of

planned donations to consider. Here are a few of them to consider. In all cases, please consult your financial

advisor for more information.

Charitable Bequests: Once you secure the well-being of your family, you may choose to include in your will a

significant donation to your church.

Gifts of Life Insurance: Using a life insurance policy makes it possible to make a major gift while protecting the

inheritance of one’s heir(s).

Gifts of Listed Securities: The gift of publicly listed securities, bonds, mutual fund units or other similar securities

is one of the most fiscally advantageous ways to make a substantial donation to a charitable organization

because the donor will avoid paying tax on capital gains. The gift of shares or other securities will give rise to a

tax credit. It is more advantageous to transfer the securities directly rather than to donate the proceeds collected

from selling the securities. This type of donation is advisable to those who wish to make a substantial donation

without encroaching on their liquid assets, or to those who own shares or other securities which have

significantly increased in value since their acquisition.

Charitable Annuities: A charitable gift annuity consists of a donation of money or other assets to a charitable

organization in exchange for guaranteed earnings for life or for a determined period of time

Sacraments & Services

When planning a baptism or wedding, please check church availability

BEFORE booking your reception hall. Thank you!

Planning Memorials

When planning for a memorial, please contact the Church Office at 603-623-2045.

There is a particular altar wine and incense we use. Please call for details!

What is Christian Stewardship? Christian

Stewardship is:

* learning how to be a responsible and

concerned caretaker of Christ’s Church

* learning how to enjoy Church life and be

happy in Church work, for in Her dwells the

fullness of the Spirit of God

* our active commitment to use all our time,

talent and treasure for the benefit of humankind

in grateful acknowledgment of Christ’s

redeeming love

* caring for the needs of others

* offering one’s self to God as He offered

Himself to us

* what a person does after saying “I believe…”

as proof of that belief

* devotion and service to God and His Church

as persons, as families, as diocese & metropolis,

as national Church and as Church universal.

As Christian Stewards we are called to give back

to God from the “first fruits” of our labor.

We support our parish and its ministries in a

deliberate way and not with only what is left

over after everything else has been taken care of!
