December 1-7, 2008
Thirtieth Week after
Pentecost
The sincerity of your deeds has revealed you to your
people as a teacher of moderation, a model of faith, and an example of
virtue. Therefore, you attained greatness through humility and wealth
through poverty. O Father and Archbishop Nicholas, ask Christ our God to
save our souls.

Today's Scripture |
|
|
|
Hebrews 11:1 - Faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the
conviction of things not seen. |
|
|
|
Luke 21:29-33 – [Jesus] told them a parable: "Look at the fig
tree, and all the trees; as soon as they come out in leaf, you see for
yourselves and know that the summer is already near. So also, when you
see these things taking place, you know that the kingdom of God is near.
Truly, I say to you, this generation will not pass away till all has
taken place. Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass
away.”
(RSV) |
