Typica Livestream – Wednesday, November 12, 2025

Glory to Jesus Christ!
On November 12, the Orthodox Church commemorates St. John the Almsgiver, Patriarch of Alexandria.
St. John is remembered as a living icon of mercy—feeding the hungry, clothing the poor, and serving Christ through boundless acts of compassion. His life continues to remind the faithful that charity is not merely a virtue but a way of life in the Kingdom of God.
The Scripture readings for today, 1 Thessalonians 2:1–8 and Luke 12:48–59, speak to the heart of Christian stewardship and reconciliation. The Apostle Paul calls believers to share both word and life in the Gospel, while Christ urges His followers to live in peace and be ready for His coming.
Our next livestream will take place tonight at 6:30 (Eastern), here and on our Facebook page.

May the intercessions of St. John the Almsgiver strengthen us all in mercy, humility, and love.
