GENERAL ASSEMBLY TODAY

Sunday Worship Schedule: Matins 9:00 am & Divine Liturgy at 10:00 a.m.

To Our Visitors and Guests

We welcome you to worship with us today, whether you are an Orthodox Christian or this is your first visit to an

Orthodox Church, we are pleased to have you with us. Although Holy Communion and other Sacraments are offered

only to baptized and chrismated (confirmed) Orthodox Christians in good standing with the Church, all are invited to

receive the Antidoron (blessed bread) from the priest at the conclusion of the Divine Liturgy. The Antidoron is not a

sacrament, but it is reminiscent of the agape feast that followed worship in the ancient Christian Church. After the

Divine Liturgy this morning please join us in the Church Hall for fellowship and refreshments. Please complete a

Visitor’s Card before you leave today and drop it in the offering tray, or give it to one of the parishioners after the

service, or mail it to the Church Office.

The Sunday Epistle Reading

O Lord, save your people and bless your inheritance.

Verse: To you, O Lord, I have cried, O my God.

The reading is from St. Paul's Letter to the Ephesians (2:4-10)

Brethren, 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.

Σῶσον, Κύριε τὸν λαὸν σου καὶ εὐλόγησον τὴν κληρονομίαν σου.

Στίχ. Πρὸς σἐ, Κύριε, κεκράξομαι ὁ Θεός μου.

Πρὸς Ἐφεσίους :4-10 )

Ἀδελφοί, ὁ θεός, πλούσιος ὢν ἐν ἐλέει, διὰ τὴν πολλὴν ἀγάπην αὐτοῦ ἣν

ἠγάπησεν ἡμᾶς, καὶ ὄντας ἡμᾶς νεκροὺς τοῖς παραπτώμασιν συνεζωοποίησεν

τῷ Χριστῷ - χάριτί ἐστε σεσωσμένοι - καὶ συνήγειρεν, καὶ συνεκάθισεν ἐν τοῖς

ἐπουρανίοις ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ· ἵνα ἐνδείξηται ἐν τοῖς αἰῶσιν τοῖς ἐπερχομένοις

τὸν ὑπερβάλλοντα πλοῦτον τῆς χάριτος αὐτοῦ ἐν χρηστότητι ἐφʼ ἡμᾶς ἐν

Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ· τῇ γὰρ χάριτί ἐστε σεσῳσμένοι διὰ τῆς πίστεως, καὶ τοῦτο οὐκ

ἐξ ὑμῶν· θεοῦ τὸ δῶρον· οὐκ ἐξ ἔργων, ἵνα μή τις καυχήσηται. Αὐτοῦ γάρ

ἐσμεν ποίημα, κτισθέντες ἐν Χριστῷ Ἰησοῦ ἐπὶ ἔργοις ἀγαθοῖς, οἷς

προητοίμασεν ὁ θεός, ἵνα ἐν αὐτοῖς περιπατήσωμεν.

The Sunday Gospel Reading.

The Gospel According to Luke 16:19-31

The Lord said, "There was a rich man, who was clothed in purple and fine linen and who feasted

sumptuously every day. And at his gate lay a poor man named Lazaros, full of sores, who desired to

be fed with what fell from the rich man's table; moreover the dogs came and licked his sores. The poor

man died and was carried by the angels to Abraham's bosom. The rich man also died and was buried;

and in Hades, being in torment, he lifted up his eyes, and saw Abraham far off and Lazaros in his

bosom. And he called out, 'Father Abraham, have mercy upon me, and send Lazaros to dip the end of his finger in

water and cool my tongue; for I am in anguish in this flame.' But Abraham said, 'Son, remember that you in your

lifetime received your good things, and Lazaros in like manner evil things; but now he is comforted here, and you

are in anguish. And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm has been fixed, in order that those who would

pass from here to you may not be able, and none may cross from there to us.' And he said, 'Then I beg you, father, to

send him to my father's house, for I have five brothers, so that he may warn them, lest they also come into this place

of torment.' But Abraham said, 'They have Moses, and the prophets; let them hear them.' And he said, 'No, father

Abraham; but if some one goes to them from the dead, they will repent.' He said to them, 'If they do not hear Moses

and the prophets, neither will they be convinced if some one should rise from the dead.'"

Ἐκ τοῦ Κατὰ Λουκᾶν Εὐαγγελίου τὸ Ἀνάγνωσμα (16:19-31)

Εἶπεν ὁ Κύριος· ῎Ανθρωπος δέ τις ἦν πλούσιος, καὶ ἐνεδιδύσκετο πορφύραν καὶ βύσσον εὐφραινόμενος καθ᾿ ἡμέραν

λαμπρῶς. πτωχὸς δέ τις ἦν ὀνόματι Λάζαρος, ὃς ἐβέβλητο πρὸς τὸν πυλῶνα αὐτοῦ ἡλκωμένος καὶ ἐπιθυμῶν

χορτασθῆναι ἀπὸ τῶν ψιχίων τῶν πιπτόντων ἀπὸ τῆς τραπέζης τοῦ πλουσίου· ἀλλὰ καὶ οἱ κύνες ἐρχόμενοι ἀπέλειχον

τὰ ἕλκη αὐτοῦ. ἐγένετο δὲ ἀποθανεῖν τὸν πτωχὸν καὶ ἀπενεχθῆναι αὐτὸν ὑπὸ τῶν ἀγγέλων εἰς τὸν κόλπον ᾿Αβραάμ·

ἀπέθανε δὲ καὶ ὁ πλούσιος καὶ ἐτάφη. καὶ ἐν τῷ ᾅδῃ ἐπάρας τοὺς ὀφθαλμοὺς αὐτοῦ, ὑπάρχων ἐν βασάνοις, ὁρᾷ τὸν

᾿Αβραὰμ ἀπὸ μακρόθεν καὶ Λάζαρον ἐν τοῖς κόλποις αὐτοῦ. καὶ αὐτὸς φωνήσας εἶπε· πάτερ ᾿Αβραάμ, ἐλέησόν με καὶ

πέμψον Λάζαρον ἵνα βάψῃ τὸ ἄκρον τοῦ δακτύλου αὐτοῦ ὕδατος καὶ καταψύξῃ τὴν γλῶσσάν μου, ὅτι ὀδυνῶμαι ἐν τῇ

φλογὶ ταύτῃ. εἶπε δὲ ᾿Αβραάμ· τέκνον, μνήσθητι ὅτι ἀπέλαβες σὺ τὰ ἀγαθά σου ἐν τῇ ζωῇ σου, καὶ Λάζαρος ὁμοίως τὰ

κακά· νῦν δὲ ὧδε παρακαλεῖται, σὺ δὲ ὀδυνᾶσαι· καὶ ἐπὶ πᾶσι τούτοις μεταξὺ ἡμῶν καὶ ὑμῶν χάσμα μέγα ἐστήρικται,

ὅπως οἱ θέλοντες διαβῆναι ἔνθεν πρὸς ὑμᾶς μὴ δύνωνται, μηδὲ οἱ ἐκεῖθεν πρὸς ἡμᾶς διαπερῶσιν. εἶπε δέ· ἐρωτῶ οὖν

σε, πάτερ, ἵνα πέμψῃς αὐτὸν εἰς τὸν οἶκον τοῦ πατρός μου· ἔχω γὰρ πέντε ἀδελφούς· ὅπως διαμαρτύρηται αὐτοῖς, ἵνα

μὴ καὶ αὐτοὶ ἔλθωσιν εἰς τὸν τόπον τοῦτον τῆς βασάνου. λέγει αὐτῷ ᾿Αβραάμ· ἔχουσι Μωϋσέα καὶ τοὺς προφήτας·

ἀκουσάτωσαν αὐτῶν. ὁ δὲ εἶπεν· οὐχί, πάτερ ᾿Αβραάμ, ἀλλ᾿ ἐάν τις ἀπὸ νεκρῶν πορευθῇ πρὸς αὐτούς,

μετανοήσουσιν. εἶπε δὲ αὐτῷ· εἰ Μωϋσέως καὶ τῶν προφητῶν οὐκ ἀκούουσιν, οὐδὲ ἐάν τις ἐκ νεκρῶν ἀναστῇ

πεισθήσονται.

Please remember, in order to vote at the General Assembly Meeting on November 4, 2018 and the December Election for Parish Council Members, you need to be a Steward in good standing.

Simple Stewardship Considerations for St Barbara

Father Stavroforos has set a goal of 160 Stewardship Families for calendar year 2018. As of now we have 152 Stewardship Families which is 95% of the goal. (Note: Stewardship operates on a calendar year basis and not on a rolling 12-month cycle. We need everyone’s contribution to meet our bills.)

We are in the final quarter of the year and so close to meeting or exceeding our goal. We need everyone’s support to reach and exceed the goal. Please sign up now if you haven’t and encourage your family and friends to join us as well. Also, since we’re approaching year-end please complete your pledge in a timely manner. St Paul in His Second Letter to the Corinthians (9:6-11) wrote “Brethren, he who sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and he who sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. … for God loves a cheerful giver. … You will be enriched in every way for great generosity, which through us will produce thanksgiving to God.” Here are some interesting facts to also consider.

DID YOU KNOW?

1. Did you know it costs about $860 per day to operate St Barbara based on our $314,000 2018 budget? The Mortgage and any capital expenditures are extra. The 2018 Building Fund budget of $165,160 is about $425 per day.

2. Did you know it costs about $1925 per Steward Family to operate St Barbara based on the total $314, 000 2018 budget and the 160 Stewards goal? The Mortgage and any capital expenditures are extra. The 2018 Building Fund budget of $165,160 is about $1050 per steward.

3. Did you know we’ve had to divert the Festival proceeds to meet operating expenses? They could be best used to meet our mortgage.

4. Did you know we need a minimum of $1,100 per stewardship family to meet the net budgeted 2018 Stewardship fund raising budget goal of $176,000?

5. Did you know that the average pledge plus non-pledged stewardship contributions in 2018 to date is around $800+ per stewardship family? This is more than a $300 per Stewardship Family shortfall.

6. Did you know that the average Stewardship / pledge contribution is about 1% (one per cent) of estimated St Barbara’s Stewards’ Family income? This compares with the 10% of your income that the Bible suggests we should be giving.

7. Did you know that if EVERYONE raised their 2018 Stewardship contribution to 2% or more of their income we could meet the 2018 operating budget? Many Stewards already do, where are you?

8. Did you know that we could be very close to meeting ALL our operating and mortgage needs if we ALL gave at least 3+% each of our income to support our Church and its ministries?

9. Did you know we have no deep pocket Parishioners who fund any budget shortfall?

10. Did you know we DO NOT get any funds from the Archdiocese, Metropolis or government entity (as in Greece)? In fact, we are assessed approximately $20,000 per year to support the Archdiocese.

THANK YOU

2018 Stewards through November 1, 2018 Our calendar year 2018 Stewardship Drive continues. At this point we have 152 Stewards or 95% of the 160 goal. Thank you to all who have pledged and contributed. Are you included as a Steward? Please give thoughtful and prayerful consideration to completing and returning your Stewardship Fund form and make your contribution as soon as possible. Also can you please increase your contribution. Stewardship is the primary funding source of our operating obligations and Church’s Ministries. Your Church needs your support.

THANK YOU.
