“When they are not near a Roman Catholic Church, Roman Catholics are permitted to receive the Holy Communion in Orthodox Churches; and the same is also extended to Orthodox when they are not near an Orthodox Church.” (From the book The Thyateira Confession p. 69, written by His Eminence Athenagoras Kokkinakis, Orthodox Archbishop of Thyateira and Great Britain, published by The Faith Press, in 1975, with the blessing and authorisation of the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople.)

 

“Επιτρέπεται εξ απόψεως Ρωμαιοκαθολικής να μεταλαμβάνουν εν καιρώ ανάγκης οι Ρωμαιοκαθολικοί εις Ορθοδόξους Εκκλησίας και οι Ορθόδοξοι εν καιρώ ανάγκης να μεταλαμβάνουν εις Ρωμαιοκαθολικάς Εκκλησίας.” (Από το βιβλίο The Thyateira Confession σελ. 209, υπό του Σεβασμιοτάτου Αρχιεπισκόπου Θυατείρων και Μεγάλης Βρεττανίας Αθηναγόρου Κοκκινάκη – εκδόσεις The Faith Press – 1975, με την ευλογία και εγκρίση του Οικουμενικού Πατριαρχείου Κωνσταντινουπόλεως.)

The Saint of the day 17 August † Martyr Myron of Cyzicus (250) He was a priest in Achaia In the time of the Emperor Decius,when Antipater was governor of Achaia, the persecutors entered the church on the Feast of the Nativity, dragged Myron away from the service and put him to torture. He endured many horrible tortures, but would not worship the idols. Finally he was thrown to wild beasts. When Antipater saw the beasts greeting Myron affectionately, the persecutor seized a sword and slew himself. The Saint was then sent to Cyzicus, where he was beheaded by the proconsul. Troparion — Tone 4 Your holy martyr, Myron, O Lord, / through his suffering has received an incorruptible crown from You, our God. / For having Your strength, he laid low his adversaries, / and shattered the powerless boldness of demons. / Through his intercessions, save our souls! Kontakion — Tone 2 From childhood you longed for Christ, all-glorious one, / keeping His divine commandments and running to Him with all your being, all-honored Myron. / Now you zealously pray with the angels, / asking remission of sins / for those who celebrate your memory.

Today's Gospel 17 August, 2017 - For 11th Thursday of Matthew The Reading from the Holy Gospel according to St. Matthew . (24:13-28) The Lord said to his disciples, "He who endures to the end will be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached throughout the whole world, as a testimony to all nations; and then the end will come. "So when you see the desolating sacrilege spoken of by the prophet Daniel, standing in the holy place (let the reader understand), then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains; let him who is on the housetop not go down to take what is in his house; and let him who is in the field not turn back to take his mantle. And alas for those who are with child and for those who give suck in those days! Pray that your flight may not be in winter or on a sabbath. For then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, and never will be. And if those days had not been shortened, no human being would be saved; but for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened. Then if any one says to you, 'Lo, here is the Christ!' or 'There he is!' do not believe it. For false Christs and false prophets will arise and show great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect. Lo, I have told you beforehand. So, if they say to you, 'Lo, he is in the wilderness,' do not go out; if they say, 'Lo, he is in the inner rooms,' do not believe it. For as the lightning comes from the east and shines as far as the west, so will be the coming of the Son of man. Wherever the body is, there the eagles will be gathered together." Glory to Thee, O Lord, glory to Thee
