Під Твою милість і Твій покров прибігаємо
Початок вшанування Богородиці Діви Марії сягає
початку людського роду. Щоправда тоді лише уявляли,
що колись буде така особа, через яку прийде Месія на
землю. Ми є свідками і учасниками Спасительної цієї
місії.
Отож, коли після упадку прародичів, упадку
людства, були сказані слова Господом Богом: “Я
покладу ворожнечу між Тобою і жінкою і між Твоїм
потомством та її потомством”, тоді ті слова сказані до
змія-диявола, спокусника Єви й Адама, вже тоді давали
надію цілому людству на спасіння, що
здійснилося через найсвятішу жінку – пречисту Діву
Марію, Богородицю, переможницю змія-диявола у всіх
людських душах, котрі повірять в Її сина Ісуса Христа
як свого Спасителя.
Спасаюча дія жінки над всіма жінками, не
завершилась лише із народженням Месії і допомогою в
Його служінні, але мало продовження ще й після
Голгофи. Бачивши Ісус Матір і біля Неї учня, що
стояв, – а його ж любив Він, – мовить до Матері:
«Жінко, ось син Твій». А тоді й до учня мовить: «Ось
матір твоя». І від тієї хвилі учень узяв її до себе.
Йо. 19, 25-27
Ці слова нашого Спасителя були звернені до “учня”.
Ми є також учнями Христа, отож звернені й до нас.
Вони закликають кожного християнина стати сином/
дочкою Матері Божої. Марія опікувалася учнями і була
з ними. Так і ми можемо прибігати до
How to follow Christ Today - conclusion
The foundation of these virtues and following Christ is
constant, prayerful union with God. We cannot reach the
perfect summit of union with God the Father in this life as
Christ did. It is a profound mystery that we cannot fully
comprehend. But we better understand something of its
meaning because on our imitation of Christ at prayer we are
laying the foundation for everything else in our spiritual
life. Unlike us, Christ was sinless and did not have to pray
for the grace and mercy which we all desperately need. Yet
He prayed in order to teach us that without conscious
awareness of God's presence and without constant
admission of our need for divine help, in a word, without
mental prayer we cannot live up to the humanly impossible
demands of God's will and certainly cannot become
Christ-like in our lives.
We also pray vocally which consists of prayers from the
Scriptures such as the Psalms, or the official liturgical
prayers of the Church such as the Divine Liturgy and
Divine Office of Vespers and Matins. Vocal prayers are the
prayers of the Church and someone else yet, we still have
to spiritually prepare ourselves. We pray to the Holy
Spirit to guide, inspire and illuminate us. Mental prayer
is spontaneous, we talk to God as our own mind animated
by the Holy Spirit, is moved to speak with Him.
Vocal prayer is useful and necessary. Regarding the
Saints in Chapter 2 on Dialogue of Prayer, St. Catherine of
Sienna writes; "There are persons who pay (Cont. on pg. 3)

attention to nothing except completing the Psalms and
saying many Pater Nostras-Our Father. When they have
finished their appointed tale, they think of nothing more to
do, but seem to place devout attention and affection in
merely vocal prayer. If you ask me whether the souls
should abandon vocal prayer, I say no. But the soul should
gradually advance to mental prayer."
St. Alphonsus Liguori compared the practice of vocal
with mental prayer by contrasting their respective influence
on a person's soul. "By experience we see that many
persons who recite a great number of vocal prayers, the
Office and the Rosary, fall into sin and may even live in sin.
But a person who practices mental prayer scarcely ever falls
into grave sin, or if he does, have the misfortune of
committing mortal sin. He will either give up mental
prayer or repent of his sin. Meditation and sin cannot stand
together."
The variety of forms which mental prayer can take is
almost infinite. It can be meditation or a planned reflection
on some mystery of the faith, or examination of the
conscience as a periodic inventory of our service of God,
or aspirations which are momentary acts of patience,
humility, or love according to the circumstances of divine
providence and inspiration. The goal of our prayer besides
communicating with God is to discern His will. "Thy will
be done." This is what Jesus Christ did during His stay on
earth. He always prayed, and this is how we are to
imitate Him.

who died last month, New Star, our eparchial
newspaper, will publish your prayerful wishes.
For those making a donation of $100.00,
a 3” x 5” space will include your message. A business card

In this manner, people are given a chance to become
part of the healing process that accompanies the physical
death of someone important to their lives. As members of
the Christian family, of which Bishop Richard was father,
our emotional, spiritual and physical support is a welcome
sign of care and concern.
Thank you.

Молитва до Пресвятої Богородиці
Пресвята Богородице, у цій хвилині відновлюю своє
бажання бути під Твоїм Покровом і благаю Тебе:
Матінко моя Небесна, заопікуйся мною, моєю сім’єю і
моєю церковною громадою.
Як, тоді перед хрестом на Голгофі Ти стала матір’ю
для учня, так і сьогодні я хочу стати твоїм сином/
дочкою. У Твої руки віддаю душу мою і тіло, – все моє
життя. Віддаю моїх рідних, моїх братів і сестер у
Христі. Прошу Тебе, добра Небесна Мати, будь нашою
Ненькою та Заступницею!
Охороняй завжди мене і моїх ближніх сильним
Твоїм Покровом у всіх небезпеках душі і тіла.
Заступайся за нас перед Всевишнім та Своїми святими
молитвами зменшуй Його Святий Гнів з причини
наших гріхів! Вимоли ласку навернення і святого життя
кожному з нас.
Я добре знаю, що Ти, Царице Неба, завжди успішно
допомагаєш усім тим, хто з довірою віддається під Твій
Святий Покров і твердо вірю, що під Твоїм Святим
Покровом легше зможу уникати всіх небезпек для душі
і тіла, та виконувати Божу Волю, а після смерті
осягнути вічне щастя на Небі.
Амінь.
Prayer to the Blessed Virgin
O Mary, my Queen and my Mother! I give myself
entirely to you. I consecrate to you, this day, my eyes, my
ears, my mouth, my heart, my whole being without reserve.
And since, good Mother, I am your own, keep me and
guard me as your property and possession.
