    MA’ ALTHO: THE PRESENTATION OF INFANT JESUS (FEB 2, 2017)

    January 30, 2017 /

They no longer simply belong to their parents, but they belong to God. In Orthodox tradition the sacrament of Baptism is a kind of a “giving away” of children to God.

    Farmers and other parishioners would arrive at Holy Qurbana with their seeds or seedlings for blessings.

In addition, farmers sought God’s help through the intercession of St. Mary, mother of God on this fixed feast day celebrated on January 15th.
