O Death, where is thy sting?!Death is the touchstone of our attitude to life.

People who are afraid of death are afraid of life.

It is impossible not to be afraid of life with all

its complexity and dangers if one is afraid of

death. This means that to solve the problem of

death is not a luxury. If we are afraid of death

we will never be prepared to take ultimate risks;

we will spend our life in a cowardly, careful

and timid manner. It is only if we can face

death, make sense of it, determine its place and

our place in regard to it that we will be able to

live in a fearless way and to the fulness of our

ability. Too often we wait until the end of our

life to face death, whereas we would have lived

quite differently if only we had faced death at

the outset.

According to St. John Climacus, one of theessential steps in the transformation of our

fallen nature and the acquisition of the virtues is

"meleti thanatou", or the remembrance of death.

In fact, Step 6 of hisLadder of Divine Ascentis

dedicated to this very practice. On October 3rd

the Church guides us to read this specific

chapter from beginning to end, because at the

end is the tale of the Blessed Hesychius the

Horebite whom we celebrate today. St. John

thought his tale to be the perfect seal on th

beneficial chapter dedicated to the remembran

of death, and below I offer the ending portion

this chapter to see why:

Some inquire and wonder: Why, when t

remembrance of death is so beneficial to us, h

God hidden from us the knowledge of the ho

of death? not knowing that in this way G

wonderfully accomplishes our salvation. For

one who foreknew his death would at on

proceed to baptism or the monastic life; b

everyone would spend all his days in iniquiti

and only on the day of his death, would

approach baptism and repentance. From lo

habit, he would become confirmed in vice, a

would remain utterly incorrigible. And I cann

be silent about the story of Hesychius tHorebite. He passed his life in comple

negligence, without paying the least attention

his soul. Then he became extremely ill, and f

an hour he expired. And when he came

himself, he begged us all to leave h

immediately. And he built up the door of h

cell, and he stayed in it for twelve years witho

ever uttering a word to anyone, and witho

eating anything but bread and water. An

always remaining motionless, he was so rapt in spirit at what he had seen in his ecstasy, that he never changed this manner of

Rejoice, unfading rose. Rejoice, the only one who budded forth the unfadingapple. Rejoice, birth-giver of the aromatic balm of the King of all. Rejoice, OBride unwedded, the world's salvation."The Akathist Hymn is a profound,devotional poem, which sings the praises of the Holy Mother and Ever-VirginMary. It is one of the most beloved services in the Orthodox Church. It wascomposed in the imperial city of Constantinople, "the city of the Virgin," by St.Romanos the Melodist, who reposed in the year 556. The Akathist Hymn hasproven so popular in the liturgical life of the Church that many other hymnshave been written following its format. These include Akathists to Our LordJesus Christ, to the Cross, and to many Saints. The Akathist hymn consists ofpraises directed to the Mother of God, beginning with the salutation of theArchangel Gabriel: "Rejoice." As the hymn is chanted all of the events relatedto our Lord's Incarnation pass before us for our contemplation. The ArchangelGabriel marvels at the Divine self-emptying and the renewal of creation whichwill occur when Christ comes to dwell in the Virgin's womb. The unborn John the Baptist prophetically rejoices.

shepherds recognize Christ as a blameless Lamb, and rejoice that in the Virgin "the thiof earth join chorus with the heavens." The pagan Magi following the light of the spraise Her for revealing the light of the world. The word "akathistos" means "not sittini.e., standing; normally all participants stand while it is being prayed.

The hymn is comprised of 24 stanzas, arranged in an acrostic following the Gralphabet. The stanzas alternate between long and short. Each short stanza is writtenprose and ends with the singing of "Alleluia." Each longer stanza ends with the refr"Rejoice, O Bride Unwedded." The first part of the hymn is about the Annunciation toVirgin Mary by the Angel. It describes Marys surprise at the news, her visit to her moand Josephs doubts as to her innocence. The second part is about the birth of Christ,worship of the Shepherds and Magi, the flight to Egypt and the visit to Saint Simeon inTemple. In the third part the hymn directs our attention to the renewal of the worldChrists coming, and the amazement of the Angels and the wise men at the sight of

Incarnation of Gods Son. The fourth and the last part is once more a lyric and rhetorappraisal of Virgin Mary, whom the poet adorns with the most beautiful of adjectiasking her to accept his poetical offering and to intercede for the salvation of human rfrom the earthly sin. Orthodox Christian Observance of the Akathist Hymn On the four Fridays of Great Lent during the service of the Small Compline the Akathist Hymobserved in the following order: The chanting of the nine Odes or Canon. The chantingthe Kontakion with censing ("Ti Ipermacho" -"O Champion General...").

Youth Team ReportWell, weve had a long, hard, unrelenting winter, and we have needed to cancel a few youth events, but hope sprineternal, and the energy and enthusiasm of our parish youth and teachers has not waned as we wait for the snow to mand the first buds of spring to appear!

This month, we would like to introduce our Grade 3-4 class, taught by Loredana Jerghiutaand Kris Brekke.

Our class curriculum teaches the children abo

the Church as a whole, exploring t

Sacraments, Feast days, the Prayers of t

Church and the Divine Liturgy. With the cont

of the lessons we also have a reading from t

Bible and getting the children more and mo

familiarized with the Old Testament and tNew Testament.

Our class recently was visited by Mrs. Calli Kelly and got their Orthodox Mission Coin Boxes. We

learned once again about the missionaries of the Orthodox Christian Mission Center (OCMC) and

those who leave their homes to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ and the truth and hope of the

Orthodox faith with the over one billion people who have yet to receive it. The class got so motivated

that they decided to take some initiatives. Please give them the proper support they need to grow their

ministry.

Please keep the children and their mission work in your prayers.

Our 5thand 6thgrade class is taught by Catherine Weilerand Terri Mettler. A goal of our Church School curriculum this yis to enhance our students knowledge of the Holy Scriptures from a young age and build upon that familiarity through grades. In this class:

We have been studying stories from the Old Testament and how they relate to the coming and love of Christ for

all of us. We first review the story we discussed the prior week and then watch a cartoon DVD/movie about the

days story. We discuss what we learned from the story and the explanation in the Orthodox Study Bible. On

occasions, we read verses that relate to the story.

Youth Team Report-continued -

GOYA was finally able to take advantage ofthe Minnesota winter to go snow-tubing at

Ironwood Springs. The hills were fast andbumpy, and the best rides seemed to be had intandem. The entire group chained together for the final run of the afternoon a snake of tubes and bundled friensquealing with delightand just a touch of apprehension!

GOYAs Faith Night reflected on the theme of discrimination, the societal influences we experience to that eversus the Christian message that God loves and welcomes us equally: For there is no distinction between Jew Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him. (Romans 10:12). We considered pendlegislation in Arizona, whether this was discriminatory in effect or an attempt to recognize and support individreligious freedom in society. We agreed that this issue offers another challenge to consider how the teachings of faith fit within the context of current affairs.

GOYA has started to raise money for their mission trip with YOCAMA in June to visit and serve members of Navajo nation in New Mexico. We have a beautiful diptych icon of the Theotokos and Christ which we are raffloff on March 9th, Orthodoxy Sunday. Just ask any of the GOYAns or their leaders for a ticket if you would likedonate to our cause.

And please be sure to come over to coffee hour on March 9th to hear our youth sing a hymn, read an essay,expound on a chosen theme regarding our faith at our parishs St. John Chrysostom Oratorical Festival.

We are completing the Triodion period, with Forgiveness Sunday just ahead, followed by our Lenten journeyPascha. We wish our parish family and friends a spiritually rewarding passage as we prepare with peace and joythe Resurrection of our Lord. Kali sarakosti.

Philoxenia House NewsI am feeling a little out of step writing this article, because we are combining March and April which means that I writing this with the feeling that 2013 is long gone. Before too much time slips away, I have to share two vimportant events that took place in 2013 in regards to the financial support of this ministry.

First, I am pleased to announce that once again this year the Philoxenia House was awarded $15,000 by the GeoEisenberg Foundation. This support is vital for this ministry to continue, and we are very thankful and pleasSecond I am happy to announce that our small friends in Illinois who go by Together We Care were able to ra$1,225 for the Philoxenia House Ministry. This is the third year that these children were able to raise over $1,200case you missed the story of Together We Care in the Philoxenia House newsletter this year, the following is a bintroduction to the group and their mission.

Together We CareReferring to themselves as Together We Care a group of children from St. Demetrios Orthodox Church in ElmhuIllinois, driven by the influence of the beloved and late Fr. Jim Tsoulos, gave up one Christmas gift each to ramoney for the Philoxenia House Ministry. The mission was to come together, as they always have during holidays, but skip out on the grab bag. The parents now had the opportunity to talk to the kids about the importmessage of giving and explain that the money raised will help support housing facilities for sick patients and thfamilies at the Philoxenia House. On the second year, the children have decided to give up two gifts. Two of children, Niko and Demetri Eliopoulos even started giving up birthday presents to help the cause. What a wondething they have done. The children and their parents are hoping for a field trip someday to visit the Philoxenia HouBravo not only to the children, but to their wonderful parents who are helping to create in the children caring, givhearts. I am sure that Fr. Tsoulos is smiling with pride.

Philoptochos SocietyDear brothers and sisters in Christ,

Our meetings continue to be the fist Tuesday of the month at 6pm in the Church library. The dates of the next tmeetings are Tuesdays March 4th and April 1st at 6pm in the Church library. Philoptochos is the philanthropic armour Church; we work together in helping others. Most women parishioners in our parish are Philoptochos membOur board include the following members: President Calli Kelly, Vice President Kristine Brekke, Treasurer LoredJerghiuta, Secretaries Effie Psimos and Angie Rustad, Board members Penny Kolas and Anna Ryabova and our Spitual Advisor Father Mark Munoz. Please see any of us in regard to mission work within our parish.

Recent donations that we collected have been $278 from our loukoumathes sale (for our budget) and $540 in a tpassing for St Basil Academy. Thank you to all who helped us with the sale and who gave generously to the tray paing.

March: On Sunday March 2nd we will host a Cheesefare Luncheon in which the proceeds go to Hellenic ColleHoly Cross School of Theology. We will be serving Tyropitas and Spanokopitas with a salad and cheesecake for dserts. There will be mac and cheese for the children who request it. The cost is $8 adults and $4 children. Please j

us in supporting a good donation to the college.

Also in March, if you have not done so already please give your Philoptochos dues to our treasurer Loredana Jerghta. Dues are free will donations with the minimum due to give at $21 (which goes to the National and Regional lels). If possible, any dues over $30 would be great. Thank you.

April: Philoptochos will host the Palm Sunday dinner on April 13th following Divine Liturgy in which the procego directly to our chapter to distribute to the many charities that we support. This will be a fish plaki dinner with saand dessert for $12 adults and $6 children. Again please join us in raising money for those in need. Thank you.

Also in April, volunteers are needed to dye the red eggs for the Pascha Resurrection service. The egg dying will tplace in the Church kitchen after the Thursday morning service on April 17th.

In the upcoming weeks; I will send out emails to our Society members for help in the various ministries and fundraers that we are involved in. There will be more details in these emails.

In closing, I leave you, a loving dialog between our Lord Jesus Christ and His close friend and disciple, Martwhose brother Lazarus has died. This discussion is in the Gospel reading (John 11:1-45) for Lazarus Saturday whis on April 12th this year. There is much spiritual insight that can be gleaned from the entire Gospel reading and athe icon of Lazarus being raised from the dead. Personally, I love that here (John 11:21-27) Jesus Christ shares truth of who He is to Martha and leads her in a proclamation of faith towards Him. In this, I see their love and cfor each other, very much like when Jesus asked His disciples Who do you say that I am? and Peter responded whis affirmation that Jesus is the Messiah, You are the Christ. in Mark 8:29. Enjoythis Gospel reading that holds the spiritual love and beauty in the words shared be-

tween Jesus Christ and His dear friend, the Myrrhbearer, Saint Martha.

Martha said to Jesus, Lord, if You have been here, my brother would not have

died. But even now I know that whatever You ask of God, God will give You. Jesus

said to her, Your brother will rise again. Martha said to Him, I know that he will

rise again in the resurrection at the last day. Jesus said to her, I am the resurrec-

tion and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live. And who-

ever lives and believes in Me shall never die. Do you believe this? She said to Him,

Yes, Lord, I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who is to come into the

world. -Jesus Christ and Martha in John 11:21-27

With sisterly love in CHRIST+

OUTREACH

Parish Potluck!We enjoyed our 4th Annual Parish Ethnic Potluck this past month -- an opportunity to celebrate the rich cultudiversity of our church family, united in faith. Over 30 dishes were shared, providing a taste of Norway, Sp

Germany, Poland, Russia, Romania, Greece, Mexico, and America. To add to the feast and fellowship, we enjoyegame of guess who, where each of us submitted a fact about ourselves that might not be known to others. Can guess which of our parishioners can ride a unicycle? Who rescued sea turtles in Costa Rica? Who has a Black BeltTae Kwan Do? Who was a rodeo judge? Who was a munchkin in the Wizard of Oz? Who could polka and squdance like there was no tomorrow? If you missed the Potluck, ask around at Coffee Hour and see if you can learn answers!

OUTREACHNew Member Highlight

Oleg Pecherskii and Anna Ryaboya

Imagine taking your critically ill baby to a foreign country where you dont know the language but where there

chance he could be helped. Thats what Anna Ryabova and her husband Oleg Pecherskii did a few years ago wh

they left Russia and brought young Roman and his older brother Sergei to America. They had to leave so mbehind, including their jobs -Annas as a stock analyst and Olegs as a computer programmer -but if they did

come, Roman might not survive.

But wait this story has a happy ending! Mayo has saved Roman and our Parish has stepped in to make them think

Rochester as their home. Indeed, Anna states that they are happy at last.

Their journey began several years ago when Roman was born with defective kidneys. The Russian doctors said t

had no way to treat him. The Germans and the Swiss told them the same thing. But Oleg would not stop searching.

promised Anna that Roman would live and that he would do everything to see that he does. He found Mayo,

Mayo said yes. Not only did it offer hope, it also paid their way here.

Their life became even more dramatic when, in a marathon day involving four surgeries, the Mayo doctors gave th

back their son. Four surgeries, in one day? Yes, the surgeons removed one of Olegs kidneys and gave it to a wom

in Wisconsin. Then they removed a kidney from her son and gave it to Roman who took to it like it was his own. Tall happened on Annas birthday and she says it was the best present she ever had.

They decided to return home to Russia because they missed their family and also their pets. But they got the sa

story -the Russian doctors would not take him as a patient. So they came back to Rochester where medical help

available if they need it. They hope to soon take their place in American society.

Roman is thriving. And so is his brother Sergei who learned English quickly in his schools ESL program. He is n

in the 6thgrade at Willow Creek Middle School where math is his favorite subject. His favorite activity? -play

with his little brother. Holy Anargyroi is an important part of their story too. Anna says, I think our history shouldnot about us. It's a story about people in the Church. And these people are so friendly -we've gotten a lot of warm

and loveThis is the best.
