Glory to Jesus Christ! Glory Forever!
On July 3, the Orthodox Church commemorates the Holy Martyr Hyacinth.
The Scripture readings for the day are Romans 16:1–16 and Matthew 13:4–9. In Romans, we encounter the example of faithful men and women who labored for the Gospel and strengthened the life of the Church. In the Gospel according to Matthew, Christ offers the Parable of the Sower, teaching us to receive His word with sincerity, perseverance, and a heart prepared for spiritual growth.
The Holy Martyr Hyacinth stands as a powerful witness to these truths. Through steadfast devotion and courageous faith, he remained faithful to Christ and bore spiritual fruit even amid suffering. His example reminds us that holiness is cultivated through obedience, endurance, and unwavering trust in God.
Our next livestream is scheduled for July 6, 2026, at 8:00 AM.
