Pentecost Sunday

(After ‘Blessed be the Kingdom...’ all kneel and say the following:)

УКРАЇНСКІ:

Царю небесний, утішителю, Душе істини,* що всюди єси і все

наповняєш,* скарбе дібр і життя подателю,* прийди і вселися в нас,* і

очисти нас від усякої скверни, і спаси благий, душі наші.

ЕNGLISH:

Heavenly King, Advocate, Spirit of Truth,* Who are everywhere present and fill

all things,* Treasury of Blessings, Bestower of Life,* come and dwell within

us;* cleanse us of all that defiles us,* and O Good One, save our souls.

First Antiphon: The heavens declare the glory of God, and the firmament

proclaims his handiwork.

Through the prayers of the Mother of God, O Savior, save us.

Day pours out the word to day, and night to night imparts knowledge.

Through the prayers of the Mother of God, O Savior, save us.

Through all the earth their voice resounds, and to the ends of the world, their

message.

Through the prayers of the Mother of God, O Savior, save us.

Glory be . . . now and forever . . . : Only Begotten Son . . . .

*Post-festive 3rd Antiphon response: O good Advocate, save us who sing to you.

Alleluia!

Third Antiphon: O Lord, in your strength the king is glad; in your victory how

greatly he rejoices.

Tropar, tone 8: Blessed are You, O Christ our God.* You filled the fishermen

with wisdom,* sending down upon them the Holy Spirit.* Through them You

have caught the whole world in your net.* O Lover of Mankind, glory be to

You!

- 6 -

You have granted him his heart‟s desire; you refused not the wish of his lips.

Blessed are you, O Christ our God. . . .

For you welcomed him with godly blessings. you placed on his head a crown of

pure gold.

Blessed are you, O Christ our God. . . .

At the Little Entrance: Be extolled, O Lord, in your strength! We will sing,

chant the praise of your might.

Blessed are you, O Christ our God. . .

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, Now and for ever

and ever. Amen!

Kondak, tone 8: When the Most High descended and confused tongues,* He

scattered the people;* but when He distributed the tongues of fire,* He called all

to unity.* Therefore, with one voice, let us praise the most Holy Spirit.

*Post-feast Third Antiphon: Regular 3rd Antiphon but with the following

response:

O good Advocate, save us who sing to You: Alleluia!

УКРАЇНСКІ:

Замість „Святий Боже‟: Ви, що в Христа хрестилися, у Христа

зодягнулися. Алилуя.

ЕNGLISH:

Instead of „Holy God....‟: All you, who have been baptized into Christ, have put

on Christ. Alleluia!

Prokimen, tone 4: Through all the earth their voice resounds, and to the ends of

the world, their message.

Verse: The heavens declare the glory of God, and the firmament proclaims his

handiwork.

Epistle: A reading from the Acts of the Apostles (2: 1 - 11)

When the day of Pentecost came it found them gathered in one place. Suddenly

from up in the sky there came a noise like a strong, driving wind which was

heard all through the house where they were seated. Tongues as of fire appeared

which parted and came to rest on each of them. All were filled with the Holy

Spirit. They began to express themselves in foreign tongues and make bold

proclamation as the Spirit prompted them. Staying in Jerusalem at the time were

- 7 -

devout Jews of every nation under heave. These heard the sound, and assembled

in a large crowd. They were much confused because each one heard these men

speaking his own language. The whole occurrence astonished them. They asked

in utter amazement, “Are not all of these men who are speaking Galileans? How

is it that each of us hears them in his native tongue? We are Parthians, Medes,

and Elamites. We live in Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus, the

province of Asia, Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt, and the regions of Libya

around Cyrene. There are even visitors from Rome - all Jews, or those who have

come over to Judaism; Cretans and Arabs too. Yet each of us hears them

speaking in his own tongue about the marvels God as accomplished.”

Alleluia verse: By the word of the Lord the heavens were made; by the breath

of his mouth all their host.

From heaven the Lord looks down; he sees all mankind.

Gospel: John 7: 37 - 52, 8: 12

On the last and greatest day of the festival, Jesus stood up and cried out: “If

anyone thirsts, let him come to me; let him drink who believes in me. Scripture

has it: „From within him rivers of living water shall flow.‟ “(Here he was

referring to the Spirit, whom those that came to believe in him were to receive.

There was, of course, no Spirit as yet, since Jesus had not yet been glorified.)

Some in the crowd who heard these words began to say, “This must be the

Prophet.” Others were claiming, “He is the Messiah.” But an objection was

raised: “Surely the Messiah is not to come from Galilee? Does not Scripture say

that the Messiah, being of David‟s family, is to come from Bethlehem, the

village where David lived?” In this fashion the crowd was sharply divided over

him. Some of them even wanted to apprehend him. However, no one laid hands

on him. When the temple guards came back, the chief priests and Pharisees

asked them, “Why did you not bring him in?” “No man ever spoke like that

before,” the guards replied. “Do not tell us you too have been taken in!” the

Pharisees retorted. “You do not see any of the Sanhedrin believing him, do you?

Or the Pharisees? Only this lot, that knows nothing about the law-- and they are

lost anyway!” One of their own number, Nicodemus (the man who had come to

him), spoke up to say, “Since when does our law condemn any man without first

hearing him and knowing the facts?” Do not tell us you are a Galilean too,” they

taunted him. “Look it up. You will not find the Prophet coming from Galilee.”

Jesus spoke to them once again: “I am the light of the world. No follower of

mine shall ever walk in darkness; no, he shall possess the light of life.”

УКРАЇНСКІ:

Замість „Достойно‟: Величай, душе моя, в Трьох особах суще єдине

божество.

Радуйся, царице, матеродівственна славо, всякі бо легкомовні

благоговірливі уста промовити не можуть, щоб тебе оспівувати достойно,

і безсильний ум усякий, щоб твоє рождество розуміти. Тому тебе

одпоголосно славимо.

ENGLISH:

Instead of „It is truly right...‟: O my soul, extol the One God in three persons.

Rejoice, O Queen and glorious Virgin Mother! What orator, rich in eloquence,

could find the proper words to fashion a hymn of praise worthy of you? For

every spirit shudders before the mystery of your holy birthgiving; and we also

unite our voices to glorify you.

Communion Hymn: May your good spirit guide me on level ground. Alleluia!

Alleluia! Alleluia! __________________________________________________________________ 2013 PENTECOST MESSAGE FOR CANADIAN CATHOLIC NATIONAL

MOVEMENTS AND ASSOCIATIONS

And suddenly from heaven there came a sound like the rush of a violent wind, and it

filled the entire house . . . . All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit (Acts 2.2,4).

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

In his address to the ecclesial movements and new communities at Pentecost 1998,

Blessed Pope John Paul expressed his conviction that such groups are the fruit of a new

Pentecost:

You, present here, are the tangible proof of the outpouring of the Spirit. Each movement

is different from the others, but they are all united in the same communion and for the

same mission. Some charisms given by the Spirit burst in like an impetuous wind, which

seizes people and carries them to new ways of missionary commitment to the radical

service of the Gospel, by ceaselessly proclaiming the truths of the faith, accepting the

living stream of the truth as a gift instilling in each person an ardent desire for holiness.

These words are most fitting as we extend to you our heartfelt appreciation for your

ongoing participation in the mission of the Church, a true share in the life of Christ.

In the course of this Year of Faith, we have received an abundant outpouring of the

Spirit‟s gift in the election of the first successor of Peter from the Americas. On the day

after his election, Pope Francis delivered his first homily to the College of Cardinals,

focusing on three essential dimensions of discipleship: walking, building, and

- 9 -

witnessing. He stressed that whatever our call and station in life, if we are not first

disciples of Jesus Christ who live the mystery of his cross, then we have missed the

point. This, and no other, is the path to the holiness of life which is our gift and task

through baptism.

Throughout the life of the Church, movements and associations of the faithful have

responded to the Spirit‟s gift to live the Gospel in meeting the diverse needs of the

Church and of the world. It is our sincere hope and our deep prayer this Pentecost that by

the Spirit‟s gift, the members of your associations and movements might share in the

grace of walking by faith, building in hope, and witnessing to love.

Dear Faithful,

RE: Bridge of Hope – Project “Home of Hope”

I am pleased to share with you a new project that the Eparchy of Edmonton has

embarked on. Within our very successful not-for-profit organization Bridge of Hope - a

which for many years provides sponsorship services, ministry and support to

underprivileged children in Ukraine, we have taken on a new challenge. The new

challenge continues our tradition not only by meeting the physical, emotional and

spiritual needs but also in protecting one of the most targeted areas in child abuse.

Home of Hope Project

- 11 -

Project “Home of Hope” is a brave new challenge to build a sanctuary and support

teenage girls who no longer qualify for Ukrainian Government protection services. This

home is more than a simple place for these girls to sleep. It will be a place of friendship,

education, faith and hope for them so that they could achieve their God-given potential.

Bridge of Hope Chairperson, Pani Luba Kowalchyk, who has worked tirelessly

with many volunteers to continue God‟s work has informed me that “Home of Hope” is

nearing completion of the building stage.

The total estimated cost of the building is $600,000. With donation drives raising

nearly 40% to date, the new building is on track to be completed this fall!

Please join me in supporting this brave and very valuable “Home of Hope” for

girls. Your support in the form of prayers and financial gifts to make this hope a reality

is greatly appreciated.

Please visit www.ourbridgeofhope.org for more information or call our Eparchial

offices at (780) 424-5496 to make a make a donation.

In gratitude for your collaboration in the mission of the Church, I pray that the

Lord bless each of you with growth in life, in faith, and in spiritual understanding.

Sincerely in Christ,

Most Rev. David Motiuk

Eparchial Bishop

URGE CONGRESS TO PROTECT CONSCIENCE RIGHTS WITH HR 940

On August 1, people of faith, family-owned businesses, and charitable institutions will be

forced to pay for sterilizations, contraceptives and abortion-causing drugs in violation of

their deeply held religious beliefs and moral convictions. This development comes as a

result of a Department of Health and Human Services mandate that requires all of these

objectionable interventions be included in every health insurance plan, with very few

narrow exceptions.

People of faith must send a clear message to Congress that they support religious freedom

and rights of conscience. Representative Diane Black of Tennessee has introduced the

“Health Care Conscience Rights Act,” (H.R. 940), which protects individuals and

organizations from being forced to violate their religious beliefs or moral convictions.

Please act today to contact your elected representatives.

Time is running short for Congress to protect the conscience rights of all Americans. Our

representatives will respond if they hear from us that religious freedom is a right.

Encourage your fellow parishioners, friends and family to contact Congress. As Knights

we should do everything possible to ensure that Americans do not lose their cherished

right to religious freedom.
