ST MATTHEW- 22 JULY 2018
 St Seraphim of Sarov
St Maximos the Confessor If we have no concern for ourselves at all
for the sake of our Love towards the Lord our God
We must Love everyone and the working of Good Deeds
with our whole soul, and the fulfilment of His Divine Will -
but put our entire Hope knowing that God is taking care of us -
in our one Lord God, and serve Him alone. this is True and Wise Hope.
For as long as He is protecting us But if we take care of our own business
and our Friends (the Angels) are helping us, and only turn to God in Prayer
our enemies (the demons) cannot inflict evil upon us. when misfortunes that are beyond our control come upon us
But when He forsakes us, and then begin to Hope in God,
then our friends also turn away from us, such Hope is vain and false.
and our enemies acquire power over us. For True Hope seeks only the Kingdom of God.
Therefore our heart can have no Peace
until we obtain True Hope that pacifies our heart
and produces Holy Joy within us

While the Tomb was sealed, Christ God,
Thou Dawned, O Life, from the

Praise God in His Saints; praise Him in

Having seen the Resurrection of Christ,
let us worship Holy Lord Jesus, the
only Sinless One.
Praise Him for His Mighty Acts; praise
Him according to the greatness of
His Majesty.

Resurrection, for He has Saved us

Jesus Who showed forth the
Resurrection.
Praise Him with the sound of the

For us God came among men; for
our corrupted nature the Word
became Flesh and dwelt amongst us:
the Benefactor to the ungrateful; the
Liberator to the prisoners; the Sun
of Justice to those who sat in
darkness; the Impossible to the
Cross; the Light to Hades; Life to
Death; Resurrection for the fallen; to
Him we cry out: O our God: Glory to
Thee!

Praise Him with timbrel and dance;
praise Him with strings and pipe.
When Christ Appeared, Thou followed
Him and went wherever He went,
and Thou earnestly ministered to
Him with integrity, O All Honourable
Magdalene, and when He died, Thou
did not abandon Him, but as a
Myrrhbearer offered Him Myrrh
combined with tears of pity.
Wherefore we today observe the
Sacred Festival of Thy Memorial.

And when she said this, she turned
around and saw Jesus standing
there, but did not know that it was
Jesus.
Jesus said to her: “Woman, why are
you weeping? Whom are you
seeking?”
Supposing Him to be the Gardener, she
said to Him: “Sir, if you have carried
Him away, tell me where you have
laid Him, and I will take Him away.”
Jesus said to her: “Mary!”
She turned and said to Him: “Rabboni!”
(which is to say: “Teacher”).
Jesus said to her: “Do not cling to Me,
for I have not yet ascended to My
Father; but go to My Brethren and
tell them: ‘I am Ascending to My
Father and your Father, and to My
God and your God.’”
Mary Magdalene went and told the
Disciples that she had seen the Lord,
and that He had spoken these things
to her.
No longer does the might of Death have
power to keep mortals captive: for
Christ came down, breaking in pieces
and destroying its power. Now
Hades is bound, the Prophets with
Joy in unison declare: The Saviour
has appeared to those with Faith.
COME OUT YOU FAITHFUL TO THE
RESURRECTION!
All that is beneath the earth, Hades and
Death, trembled today before One of
the Trinity: the earth quaked, the
Gate-keepers of Hades, when they
saw Thee, quailed! All Creation,
rejoicing with the Prophet, sins Thee
a Song of Victory, our Redeemer and
God Who destroyed the power of
Death. Let us shout with Joy and cry
out to Adam and to Adam’s race:
COME OUT, YOU FAITHFUL, TO THE
RESURRECTION!
