Troparion:
Your voice resounds throughout the world
which has accepted the lessons so well
taught by you. You have gotten explanation
to divine truths. You have clarified the
nature of created things. You made a rule
of life for men. By your royal priesthood,
O venerable father Basil, intercede with
Christ to save our souls.
Troparion:
O Jesus, enthroned on high together with
Your eternal Father and Divine Spirit, You
condescended to be born on earth of a
maiden and virgin mother. And on the eighth
day, You were circumcised. Glory be to
Your most noble decision; glory be to Your
plan of salvation; glory be to Your
condescension, O Lord; You alone love
mankind.
Troparion:
At Your baptism in the Jordan, O Lord,
worship of the Trinity was revealed, for the
Father's voice bore witness to You, calling
You His beloved Son, and the Spirit in the
form of a dove confirmed the truth of these
words. O Christ God, Who appeared and
enlightened the world, glory be to You!.

The Naming of Our Lord Jesus Christ - St. Basil the
Great, Theophany
- The Naming of Our Lord Jesus Christ
On the 8th day after His birth, Jesus was circumcised
and named according to the precepts of the Jewish law
prescribed in Genesis 12; 10, and Leviticus 12; 3 as a sign
of God's covenant with Abraham. After this ritual, he is
given the name 'Yeshua-Jesus'-He who rescues-delivers
-Yahweh saves.'. In Scripture, the name also indicates a
function. Jesus is the Savior of the world. The Lord
underwent this ritual to fulfill the precepts of the Jewish
law, and that He truly assumed human flesh.
The ritual of circumcision would give way to Baptism
which it prefigured (Colossians 2; 11-12). When we are
baptized and are part of the New Covenant-the Church. At
baptism we are given a name to remind us that we have
entered the New Covenant with God. The name 'Christian'
is a sign of mankind's entrance into a New Covenant with
God.
St. Basil the Great 329-379
St. Basil was born in 329 in Cappadocia in Asia Minor
(modern Turkey) to virtuous, wealthy parents, St. Basil the
Elder and St. Emelia. Basil visited various monasteries in
Egypt, Palestine, and Syria to learn about the monastic life.
Basil sold his possessions and divided the proceeds among
the poor and with a small group of friends he established a
monastic community not far from his family's estate at
Anesi in the province of Pontus. They lived and prayed
together as a community. He established the Long Rules
and Short Rules, of monastic life based on the Evangelical
Counsels. He established many monastic communities and
used his inheritance to help the poor and established
hospitals called 'Basiliades'. Basil's idea of monasticism
would become a school of Christian perfection and would
later be adopted by St. Benedict in the West.
Basil would be ordained priest, and in 370 he was
consecrated bishop of Caesaria in Cappadocia, directing his
work to unity of the Church, fighting the Arian heresy
which denied the divinity of Christ, and strengthening the
Christian spirit in the faithful. He achieved this by
composing a treatise on the divinity of the Holy Spirit,
introduced strict discipline among his clergy, organized
charitable institutions and revived liturgical worship. He
died on January 1, 379, and his imprint on the Church
remains to this day. Justly, he was named 'the Great'.
The Holy Theophany of Our Lord God
and Savior Jesus Christ
'The earth, O Word of God, has been made holy by Your
holy birth; the heavens with the stars proclaimed Your
glory. Now water's nature is blessed by Your bodily
baptism and earthborn's race has returned again to its
former higher estate.'
"God is light and in Him there is no darkness
at all." (1 John 1; 5) The feast of the Theophany
- the revelation of God-is sometimes called the 'Feast of

Lights', and is connected with the Nativity. Jesus Christ,
the Son of God is the Light of the world and the 'Sun of
Righteousness' is God made flesh, revealed to the world.
The Theophany is the baptism of Jesus and the revelation of
the Trinity. 'He who covers Himself with light as a
garment…today is covered by the streams of the Jordan.'
Jesus had no need for cleansing, but He does so in order to
regenerate us. One of the ancient names for baptism was
'Photismos', or 'Enlightenment'. Jesus Christ is the Light
and brought us the light of the knowledge of God, through
the sacramental mystery of Baptism which washes away
our sins and makes us members of the Church.
In our Ukrainian Christian tradition, the waters are
solemnly blessed in a solemn elaborate ceremony after the
Divine Liturgy, either in the church or on the bank of a lake
or river. The faithful bring the blessed water home, bless
their homes and farms and livestock with it, and later ask
the priest to come and bless the home. The faithful partake
of during the Schedrij Vechir-Abundant-Generous
Eve-Supper. The blessing of the waters liturgically and
ritually celebrate Jesus' Baptism, and reminds us of
our baptism. Also we are reminded of the baptism or
Rus'-Ukraine by Grand Prince Volodymyr the Great. The
River Dnipro in which the people of Kyiv were baptized
became the 'Ukrainian Jordan'.
I would like to thank all the Ladies of Our Lady of
Perpetual Help for all their hard work this year. They have
made improvements to our church for us from the new
flooring, cushions and kneelers to the most recent
donation of the new beautiful Christmas tree for the
Blessed Mother and the new American and Ukrainian flags.
They also clean the altar every week and strive to keep our
parish moving.
This month, they hosted a Christmas Party for our
Parish, which 90 people attended. They raised $650 from
a raffle of which $500 was donated towards our church
heating bill and $100 to feed the poor. They constantly
work for our church and all of us.
We are looking for new members to join the Sodality,
so if you are interested, please contact our church office for
more information.
