Glory to Jesus Christ! Glory Forever!

On July 13, the Orthodox Church celebrates the Synaxis of the Archangel Gabriel, honoring the holy messenger of God whose ministry is closely connected with the mystery of our salvation and the proclamation of the Incarnation of our Lord Jesus Christ.

The appointed readings for today are 1 Corinthians 5:9–6:11 and Matthew 13:54–58. St. Paul calls the faithful to repentance and holiness, reminding us that in Christ we have been washed, sanctified, and justified. In the Gospel, the unbelief encountered by our Lord in His own country warns us against allowing familiarity or hardness of heart to prevent us from recognizing the presence and work of God.

The faithful obedience of the Archangel Gabriel offers a powerful example of complete devotion to God's will. As we honor him, may we seek to receive the word of God with faith, humility, and readiness to serve.

Our next livestream is scheduled for July 15, 2026, at 6:30 PM.
