Will Eastern Rite Churches also be observing the Year of St. Paul? And is there any place to find out as to what events are planned? Shlomo Mateusz, Yes the Eastern Churches will be observing the Year of St. Paul. Poosh BaShlomo, Yuhannon

Our Melkite Eparch (Australia and New Zealand) asked us to preach and instruct the people during the year concerning Saint Paul's epistles.
St Paul (of Antioch) is especially dear to those churches of the East.

I, too, spoke about the Year of Saint Paul at my homily on the Feast of Sts. Peter and Paul. I emphasized that not only the holy Father but the Ecumenical Patriarch declared it a Year of Saint Paul. I also encouraged my parishioners to read the epistles of Saint Paul. And we will begin a formal study of the book of Romans beginning in January 2009.
Good for you Father. I pray you have an awesome responce and people become as hungry for Christ in his Word and they are for Christ in the Eucharist. Thank you!

I also encouraged my parishioners to read the epistles of Saint Paul. father michael: Father bless!! My spiritual father assigned me the study of the Epistles of St. Paul, especially the passages where he mentions Christian "love" which is so significantly different from whta the word has come to mean in the culture: Christian love being linked in its essence with the Passion of Christ Who laid down His Life for us. Asking for your continued holy prayers, BOB
