WELCOME TO THE ANNUNCIATION GREEK ORTHODOX CATHEDRAL
We are so happy that you are worshipping with us today If you are visiting please fill out a Visitor
Information Card located in the Narthex and give it to a Parish Council member at the candle stand in the
Narthex If you are an Orthodox Christian new to the Columbus area or if you would like to know more
about becoming an Orthodox Christian please introduce yourself to one of the priests who would be most
happy to meet with you and discuss membership in our Cathedral It is our desire that you make the
Annunciation Greek Orthodox Cathedral your spiritual home May God richly bless you and your family
FOR THE RECEPTION OF HOLY COMMUNION
We welcome all Christians not fully united with us It is a consequence of the sad divisions of Christianity that
we cannot extend to all a general invitation to receive Holy Communion Orthodox Christians believe that the
Eucharist is an action of the celebrating community signifying an oneness in faith life and worship Reception
of the Eucharist by Christians not fully united with us would imply a oneness which does not yet exist and for
which we must all pray
TODAY WE COMMEMORATE
The Holy Martyr Thalleleus Mark the Hermit Father Alexis Metropolitan of Moscow Lydia of Philippi
Equal to the Apostles John Joseph and Nikitas the Monks of Chios
WE REMEMBER IN OUR PRAYERS Please pray for your brothers and sisters in Christ at todayrsquos Divine Liturgy and throughout the week

PROKEIMENON
Daniel 32627
Blessed are you O Lord the God of our fathers
Verse For you are just in all you have done
Acts of the Apostles 2016-18 28-36
IN THOSE DAYS Paul had decided to sail past Ephesos
so that he might not have to spend time in Asia for he was
hastening to be at Jerusalem if possible on the day of
Pentecost And from Miletos he sent to Ephesos and called
to him the elders of the church And when they came to
him he said to them Take heed to yourselves and to all
the flock in which the Holy Spirit has made you
overseers to care for the church of God which he obtained
with the blood of his own Son I know that after my
departure fierce wolves will come in among you not
sparing the flock and from among your own selves will
arise men speaking perverse things to draw away the
disciples after them Therefore be alert remembering that
for three years I did not cease night or day to admonish
every one with tears And now I commend you to God and
to the word of his grace which is able to build you up and
to give you the inheritance among all those who are
sanctified I coveted no ones silver or gold or apparel
You yourselves know that these hands ministered to my
necessities and to those who were with me In all things I
have shown you that by so toiling one must help the weak
remembering the words of the Lord Jesus how he said it
is more blessed to give than to receive And when he
had spoken thus he knelt down and prayed with them all
THE EPISTLE READING
The Gospel According to John 171-13
At that time Jesus lifted up his eyes to heaven and said Father the hour has come glorify your Son that the
Son may glorify you since you have given him power over all flesh to give eternal life to all whom you have
given him And this is eternal life that they know you the only true God and Jesus Christ whom you have sent
I glorified you on earth having accomplished the work which you gave me to do and now Father you glorify
me in your own presence with the glory which I had with you before the world was made
I have manifested your name to the men whom you gave me out of the world yours they were and you gave
them to me and they have kept your word Now they know that everything that you have given me is from you
for I have given them the words which you gave me and they have received them and know in truth that I came
from you and they have believed that you did send me I am praying for them I am not praying for the world
but for those whom you have given me for they are mine all mine are yours and yours are mine and I am
glorified in them And now I am no more in the world but they are in the world and I am coming to you Holy
Father keep them in your name which you have given me that they may be one even as we are one While I
was with them I kept them in your name which you have given me I have guarded them and none of them is
lost but the son of perdition that the scripture might be fulfilled But now I am coming to you and these things
I speak in the world that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves
Κατὰ Ἰωάννην 171-13
Τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ ὁ ᾿Ιησοῦς καὶ ἐπῆρε τοὺς ὀφθαλmicroοὺς αὐτοῦ εἰς τὸν οὐρανὸν καὶ εἶπε πάτερ

ὅτι παρὰ σοῦ ἐξῆλθον καὶ ἐπίστευσαν ὅτι σύ microε ἀπέστειλας ᾿Εγὼ περὶ αὐτῶν ἐρωτῶ οὐ περὶ
τοῦ κόσmicroου ἐρωτῶ ἀλλὰ περὶ ὧν δέδωκάς microοι ὅτι σοί εἰσι καὶ τὰ ἐmicroὰ πάντα σά ἐστι καὶ τὰ σὰ

δέδωκάς microοι ἐφύλαξα καὶ οὐδεὶς ἐξ αὐτῶν ἀπώλετο εἰ microὴ ὁ υἱὸς τῆς ἀπωλείας ἵνα ἡ γραφὴ
πληρωθῇ νῦν δὲ πρὸς σὲ ἔρχοmicroαι καὶ ταῦτα λαλῶ ἐν τῷ κόσmicroῳ ἵνα ἔχωσι τὴν χαρὰν τὴν ἐmicroὴν

Blessed are you O Lord the God of our fathers
Verse For you are just in all you have done
Acts of the Apostles 2016-18 28-36
IN THOSE DAYS Paul had decided to sail past Ephesos
so that he might not have to spend time in Asia for he was
hastening to be at Jerusalem if possible on the day of
Pentecost And from Miletos he sent to Ephesos and called
to him the elders of the church And when they came to
him he said to them Take heed to yourselves and to all
the flock in which the Holy Spirit has made you
overseers to care for the church of God which he obtained
with the blood of his own Son I know that after my
departure fierce wolves will come in among you not
sparing the flock and from among your own selves will
arise men speaking perverse things to draw away the
disciples after them Therefore be alert remembering that
for three years I did not cease night or day to admonish
every one with tears And now I commend you to God and
to the word of his grace which is able to build you up and
to give you the inheritance among all those who are
sanctified I coveted no ones silver or gold or apparel
You yourselves know that these hands ministered to my
necessities and to those who were with me In all things I
have shown you that by so toiling one must help the weak
remembering the words of the Lord Jesus how he said it
is more blessed to give than to receive And when he
had spoken thus he knelt down and prayed with them all
THE EPISTLE READING
The Gospel According to John 171-13
At that time Jesus lifted up his eyes to heaven and said Father the hour has come glorify your Son that the
Son may glorify you since you have given him power over all flesh to give eternal life to all whom you have
given him And this is eternal life that they know you the only true God and Jesus Christ whom you have sent
I glorified you on earth having accomplished the work which you gave me to do and now Father you glorify
me in your own presence with the glory which I had with you before the world was made
I have manifested your name to the men whom you gave me out of the world yours they were and you gave
them to me and they have kept your word Now they know that everything that you have given me is from you
for I have given them the words which you gave me and they have received them and know in truth that I came
from you and they have believed that you did send me I am praying for them I am not praying for the world
but for those whom you have given me for they are mine all mine are yours and yours are mine and I am
glorified in them And now I am no more in the world but they are in the world and I am coming to you Holy
Father keep them in your name which you have given me that they may be one even as we are one While I
was with them I kept them in your name which you have given me I have guarded them and none of them is
lost but the son of perdition that the scripture might be fulfilled But now I am coming to you and these things
I speak in the world that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves

Blessed are you O Lord the God of our fathers
Verse For you are just in all you have done
Acts of the Apostles 2016-18 28-36
IN THOSE DAYS Paul had decided to sail past Ephesos
so that he might not have to spend time in Asia for he was
hastening to be at Jerusalem if possible on the day of
Pentecost And from Miletos he sent to Ephesos and called
to him the elders of the church And when they came to
him he said to them Take heed to yourselves and to all
the flock in which the Holy Spirit has made you
overseers to care for the church of God which he obtained
with the blood of his own Son I know that after my
departure fierce wolves will come in among you not
sparing the flock and from among your own selves will
arise men speaking perverse things to draw away the
disciples after them Therefore be alert remembering that
for three years I did not cease night or day to admonish
every one with tears And now I commend you to God and
to the word of his grace which is able to build you up and
to give you the inheritance among all those who are
sanctified I coveted no ones silver or gold or apparel
You yourselves know that these hands ministered to my
necessities and to those who were with me In all things I
have shown you that by so toiling one must help the weak
remembering the words of the Lord Jesus how he said it
is more blessed to give than to receive And when he
had spoken thus he knelt down and prayed with them all
THE EPISTLE READING
The Gospel According to John 171-13
At that time Jesus lifted up his eyes to heaven and said Father the hour has come glorify your Son that the
Son may glorify you since you have given him power over all flesh to give eternal life to all whom you have
given him And this is eternal life that they know you the only true God and Jesus Christ whom you have sent
I glorified you on earth having accomplished the work which you gave me to do and now Father you glorify
me in your own presence with the glory which I had with you before the world was made
I have manifested your name to the men whom you gave me out of the world yours they were and you gave
them to me and they have kept your word Now they know that everything that you have given me is from you
for I have given them the words which you gave me and they have received them and know in truth that I came
from you and they have believed that you did send me I am praying for them I am not praying for the world
but for those whom you have given me for they are mine all mine are yours and yours are mine and I am
glorified in them And now I am no more in the world but they are in the world and I am coming to you Holy
Father keep them in your name which you have given me that they may be one even as we are one While I
was with them I kept them in your name which you have given me I have guarded them and none of them is
lost but the son of perdition that the scripture might be fulfilled But now I am coming to you and these things
I speak in the world that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves

CELEBRATING GODrsquoS CREATION
The Gospel According to John 171-13
At that time Jesus lifted up his eyes to heaven and said Father the hour has come glorify your Son that the
Son may glorify you since you have given him power over all flesh to give eternal life to all whom you have
given him And this is eternal life that they know you the only true God and Jesus Christ whom you have sent
I glorified you on earth having accomplished the work which you gave me to do and now Father you glorify
me in your own presence with the glory which I had with you before the world was made
I have manifested your name to the men whom you gave me out of the world yours they were and you gave
them to me and they have kept your word Now they know that everything that you have given me is from you
for I have given them the words which you gave me and they have received them and know in truth that I came
from you and they have believed that you did send me I am praying for them I am not praying for the world
but for those whom you have given me for they are mine all mine are yours and yours are mine and I am
glorified in them And now I am no more in the world but they are in the world and I am coming to you Holy
Father keep them in your name which you have given me that they may be one even as we are one While I
was with them I kept them in your name which you have given me I have guarded them and none of them is
lost but the son of perdition that the scripture might be fulfilled But now I am coming to you and these things
I speak in the world that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves
