Rom. 2:10-16
BRETHREN: glory and honor, and peace
to everyone who works what is good, to the
Jew first and also to the Greek. For there is
no partiality with God. For as many as have
sinned without law will also perish without
law, and as many as have sinned in the law
will be judged by the law (for not the hearers
of the law are just in the sight of God, but
the doers of the law will be justified; for
when Gentiles, who do not have the law, by
nature do the things in the law, these, alt-
hough not having the law, are a law to them-
selves, who show the work of the law written
in their hearts, their conscience also bearing
witness, and between themselves their
thoughts accusing or else excusing them) in
the day when God will judge the secrets of
men by Jesus Christ, according to my gospel.
& Heb. 11:33-12:2
Matt. 4:18-23 & Matt. 4:25-5:12
AT THAT TIME: Jesus was walking by
the Sea of Galilee and saw two brothers, Si-
mon called Peter, and Andrew his brother,
casting a net into the sea; for they were fisher-
men. Then He said to them, "Follow Me, and
I will make you fishers of men." They imme-
diately left their nets and followed Him. Go-
ing on from there, He saw two other broth-
ers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his
brother, in the boat with Zebedee their fa-
ther, mending their nets. He called them,

and immediately they left the boat and their
father, and followed Him. And Jesus went
about all Galilee, teaching in their syna-
gogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom,
and healing all kinds of sickness and all kinds
of disease among the people.
AT THAT TIME: Great multitudes fol-
lowed Him from Galilee, and from Decapo-
lis, Jerusalem, Judea, and beyond the Jordan.
And seeing the multitudes, He went up on a
mountain, and when He was seated His disci-
ples came to Him. Then He opened His
mouth and taught them, saying: Blessed are
the poor in spirit, For theirs is the kingdom
of heaven. Blessed are those who mourn, For
they shall be comforted. Blessed are the
meek, For they shall inherit the earth.
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for
righteousness, For they shall be filled. Blessed
are the merciful, For they shall obtain mercy.
Blessed are the pure in heart, For they shall
see God. Blessed are the peacemakers, For
they shall be called sons of God. Blessed are
those who are persecuted for righteousness'
sake, For theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are you when they revile and perse-
cute you, and say all kinds of evil against you
falsely for My sake.
Rejoice and be ex-
ceedingly glad, for
great is your reward
in heaven, for so
they persecuted the
prophets who were
before you.

ANNOUNCEMENTS ….. and all those home-bound or in nursing homes!
Re-opening - slowly: Under the guidance
and direction of His Beatitude, Metropolitan
TIKHON and our Holy Synod, SYNODAL DI-
RECTIVES, we are at Stage 1 in the “opening up”
plan, blessed by His Beatitude, to have Great Ves-
pers & Obednitsa from church with a very small
group. Again this is the first of a multi step process.
Everyone has been sent the whole plan electronical-
ly and just the details are in the June Newsletter.
We will continue “live stream” Vespers and
Obednitsa around our normal service times on the
appropriate days via Zoom meetings only.
Again Thank You for remembering to mail your
weekly contributions and charity donations to our
PO Box since we still have expenses and bills to
pay. If you are in need of assistance in any way
don’t be shy and contact Fr. David so that these
things can be addressed!
The June monthly charity collection is

All Saint of America
Troparion — Tone 8
As the bountiful harvest of Thy sowing of salvation, the lands of North America offer to Thee, O Lord, all the saints who have shone in them. By their prayers keep the Church and our land in abiding peace through the Theotokos, O most Merciful One!
Kontakion — Tone 3
Today the choir of Saints who were pleasing to God in the lands of North America now stands before us in the Church and invisibly prays to God for us. With them the Angels glorify Him, and all the Saints of the Church of Christ keep festival with them; and together they all pray for us to the Pre-eternal God.
