		<title>Weekly Educational Offering - Prepare for the Coming Sunday!</title>

		<content type="text/html" mode="escaped"><![CDATA[<center><img src="images/Grow-your-faith.jpg" width="480" height="360" border="0" alt="" /></center><br />We present here a short educational offering for both children and adults on the upcoming Sunday&#039;s principle Gospel reading so that all can better prepare for the Divine Services. Parents are asked to review the children’s portion with their children. It is very important for us to attend the Divine Services on Sundays and whenever else we are able, but in addition it is our spiritual responsibility to educate ourselves and our families in the faith. It is our hope that this mid-week offering will be an aid in this regard. Please contact Fr. Gregory with questions or suggestions.<br /><br /><center><b>For Various Ages: <a href="https://antiochianprodsa.blob.core.windows.net/websiteattachments/2025-03-23-B.pdf" target="_blank" >from the Antiochian Archdiocese </a></b></center>]]></content>

		<content type="text/html" mode="escaped"><![CDATA[<center><img src="images/presanctfiedevening.jpg" width="480" height="270" border="0" alt="" /></center><br /><br />This year, with the blessing of His Eminence Archbishop Gabriel, we will celebrate the beautiful Divine Liturgy of the Presanctified Gifts throughout Great Lent on Wednesday evenings.

Please contact our Head Sister, Ksenia Nikulshina (headsister@stvladimiraami.org or see her in church) if you would like to help with the dinner. We have excellent Lenten recipes to share if you’d like to try something new! Please join us for these remarkably beautiful and meaningful Lenten evening services and for mid-week fellowship with your parish family at the meal afterwards!<br /><br />Wednesday, March 4<br /><b>Wednesday, March 11</b><br />Wednesday, March 18<br />Thursday, March 26 – NOTE THIS IS A THURSDAY<br />Wednesday, April 1<br /><br />The Liturgical Fast for those communing begins after breakfast for the ~6:00 p.m. services. In other words, you may eat breakfast, but eat or drink nothing further after that. Parents should use their best judgment regarding their children, as always. Those who confessed on the weekend prior to the Wednesday Presanctified need not confess again on/before Wednesday.<br /><br />PLEASE NOTE! There are other Presanctified Liturgies throughout Great Lent - mostly on Fridays. Please consult the schedule of services on our web site for more details.<br /><br /><center><b><a href="http://stvladimiraami.org/flyers/eveningpresanctifiedliturgies2026.pdf" target="_blank" >FLYER TO SHARE</a></b></center>]]></content>

		<title>Scripture Reading for the Coming Week</title>
		<link rel="alternate" type="text/html" href="http://www.stva2.org/index.php?entry=entry260308-180000" />
		<content type="text/html" mode="escaped"><![CDATA[<center><img src="images/jesusreadinginthetemple.jpg" width="480" height="503" border="0" alt="" /></center><br />&quot;This is the cause of all evils: the ignorance of the Scriptures. We go into battle without arms, and how ought we to come off safe?&quot; -St. John Chrysostom, Homily IX on Colossians.<br /><br />In order to help increase the general knowledge of scripture in our parish family we present here for your edification the scripture readings for the coming week. At least one Gospel Reading and one Epistle reading are assigned for each day of the year (although during Great Lent the readings are from the Old Testament). Hearing or reading only those readings appointed for Sunday merely scratches the surface of the great spiritual wealth that the scriptures provide us. Some of the readings are easily understandable – others are less so. As Orthodox Christians we do not make private interpretation of scripture, but rather consult the fathers of the Church for their explanations to aid us in our understanding. Those wishing to have access to such explanations are asked to contact Fr. Gregory or inquire in the kiosk for further reading in this regard. Bibles may also be acquired in the kiosk.<br /><br />Monday: Isaiah 8:13-9:7, Genesis 6:9-22, Proverbs 8:1-21<br />Tuesday: Isaiah 9:9-10:4, Genesis 7:1-5, Proverbs 8:32-9:11<br />Wednesday: Isaiah 10:12-20, Genesis 7:6-9, Proverbs 9:12-18<br />Thursday: Isaiah 11:10-12:2, Genesis 7:11-8:3, Proverbs 10:1-22<br />Friday: Isaiah 13:2-13, Genesis 8:4-21, Proverbs 10:31-11:12<br />Saturday: Hebrews 10:32-38 &amp; Mark 2:14-17<br /><br />Ïîíåäåëüíèê: Èñàèè 8:13-9:7, Áûòèÿ 6:9-22, Ïðè÷òè 8:1-21<br />Âòîðíèê: Èñàèè 9:9-10:4, Áûòèÿ 7:1-5, Ïðè÷òè 8:32-9:11<br />Ñðåäà: Èñàèè 10:12-20, Áûòèÿ 7:6-9, Ïðè÷òè 9:12-18<br />×åòâåðã: Èñàèè 11:10-12:2, Áûòèÿ 7:11-8:3, Ïðè÷òè 10:1-22<br />Ïÿòíèöà: Èñàèè 13:2-13, Áûòèÿ 8:4-21, Ïðè÷òè 10:31-11:12<br />Ñóááîòà: Åâð. 10:32-38 &amp; îò Ìàðêà 2:14-17<br /><br />Please find below several very nice articles on how to read the scripture from an Orthodox point of view.<br /><b><center><br /><a href="http://www.orthodoxinfo.com/phronema/bible_how.aspx" target="_blank" >By St. Justin (Popovich)</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.orthodoxinfo.com/phronema/ware_howto.aspx" target="_blank" >By Bishop Kalistos (Ware)</a></center></b>]]></content>
