MY LIFE, AS AN OLD PHOTOGRAPH
By Vasilios K. Patsiokostas
Available in our Parish Bookstore
In his autobiography, Vasilios Patsiokostas (Patsios) recounts his
life experiences of survival during World War II and the Greek Civil
War; his success as an immigrant in America; and his support and
joy in a close-knit Greek family. His story is fascinating and
inspirational.
Free-will donation. Proceeds from the book sales will support the
Taxiarchae church youth ministries.
Thank you.
HYMNS OF THE DAY
Resurrectional Apolytikion in the Grave Mode : By Your Cross; O Christ our God , You
destroyed death. You opened paradise to the thief; You transformed the lament of the Myrrhbearing woman, and You commanded the Apostles to proclaim You are risen, granting great the
world Your great mercy.
Κατέλυσας τῷ Σταυρῷ σου τὸν θάνατον, ἠνέῳξας τῷ Λῃστῇ τὸν Παράδεισον, τῶν Μυροφόρων
τὸν θρῆνον μετέβαλες, καὶ τοῖς σοῖς Ἀποστόλοις κηρύττειν ἐπέταξας, ὅτι ἀνέστης Χριστὲ ὁ
Θεός, παρέχων τῷ κόσμῳ τὸ μέγα ἔλεος.
Apolytikion for Apostle James, Son of Alphaeus in the Third Mode: O Holy Apostle James,
intercede with the merciful God that He grant unto our souls forgiveness of offences.
Απόστολε Άγιε Ιάκωβε, πρέσβευε τώ ελεήμονι Θεώ ίνα πταισμάτων άφεσιν, παράσχη ταίς
ψυχάς ημών.
Seasonal Kontakion in the Second Mode: O Protection of Christians that cannot be put to
shame, mediation unto the creator most constant: O despise not the voices of those who have
sinned; but be quick, O good one, to come unto our aid, who in faith cry unto thee: Hasten to
intercession and speed thou to make supplication, O thou who dost ever protect, O Theotokos,
them that honor thee.
Προστασία τῶν Χριστιανῶν ἀκαταίσχυντε, μεσιτεία πρὸς τὸν Ποιητὴν ἀμετάθετε. Μὴ παρίδῃς
ἁμαρτωλῶν δεήσεων φωνάς, ἀλλὰ πρόφθασον, ὡς ἀγαθή, εἰς τὴν βοήθειαν ἡμῶν, τῶν
πιστῶς κραυγαζόντων σοι· Τάχυνον εἰς πρεσβείαν, καὶ σπεῦσον εἰς ἱκεσίαν, ἡ προστατεύουσα
ἀεί, Θεοτόκε, τῶν τιμώντων σε.

EPISTLE READING
Prokeimenon. Grave Mode. Psalm 28.11,1.
The Lord will give strength to his people.
Verse: Bring to the Lord, O sons of God, bring to the Lord honor and
glory.
The reading is from St. Paul's Second Letter to the Corinthians
6:1-10.
BRETHREN, working together with him, then, we entreat you not to
accept the grace of God in vain. For he says, "At the acceptable time
I have listened to you, and helped you on the day of salvation." Behold, now is the acceptable
time; behold, now is the day of salvation. We put no obstacle in any one's way, so that no fault
may be found with our ministry, but as servants of God we commend ourselves in every way:
through great endurance, in afflictions, hardships, calamities, beatings, imprisonments, tumults,
labors, watching, hunger; by purity, knowledge, forbearance, kindness, the Holy Spirit, genuine
love, truthful speech, and the power of God; with the weapons of righteousness for the right
hand and for the left; in honor and dishonor, in ill repute and good repute. We are treated as
impostors, and yet are true; as unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and behold we live; as
punished, and yet not killed; as sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich;
as having nothing, and yet possessing everything.
Πρὸς Κορινθίους β' 6:1-10
Προκείμενον. Grave Mode. ΨΑΛΜΟΙ 28.11,1. Κύριος ἰσχὺν τῷ λαῷ αὐτοῦ δώσει. Στίχ.
Ἐνέγκατε τῷ Κυρίῳ υἱοὶ Θεοῦ, ἐνέγκατε τῷ Κυρίῳ δόξαν καὶ τιμήν.
Ἀδελφοί, συνεργοῦντες δὲ καὶ παρακαλοῦμεν μὴ εἰς κενὸν τὴν χάριν τοῦ θεοῦ δέξασθαι ὑμᾶς
- λέγει γάρ, Καιρῷ δεκτῷ ἐπήκουσά σου, καὶ ἐν ἡμέρᾳ σωτηρίας ἐβοήθησά σοι· ἰδού, νῦν
καιρὸς εὐπρόσδεκτος, ἰδού, νῦν ἡμέρα σωτηρίας - μηδεμίαν ἐν μηδενὶ διδόντες προσκοπήν,
ἵνα μὴ μωμηθῇ ἡ διακονία· ἀλλʼ ἐν παντὶ συνιστῶντες ἑαυτοὺς ὡς θεοῦ διάκονοι, ἐν ὑπομονῇ
πολλῇ, ἐν θλίψεσιν, ἐν ἀνάγκαις, ἐν στενοχωρίαις, ἐν πληγαῖς, ἐν φυλακαῖς, ἐν ἀκαταστασίαις,
ἐν κόποις, ἐν ἀγρυπνίαις, ἐν νηστείαις, ἐν ἁγνότητι, ἐν γνώσει, ἐν μακροθυμίᾳ, ἐν χρηστότητι,
ἐν πνεύματι ἁγίῳ, ἐν ἀγάπῃ ἀνυποκρίτῳ, ἐν λόγῳ ἀληθείας, ἐν δυνάμει θεοῦ, διὰ τῶν ὅπλων
τῆς δικαιοσύνης τῶν δεξιῶν καὶ ἀριστερῶν, διὰ δόξης καὶ ἀτιμίας, διὰ δυσφημίας καὶ
εὐφημίας· ὡς πλάνοι καὶ ἀληθεῖς· ὡς ἀγνοούμενοι, καὶ ἐπιγινωσκόμενοι· ὡς ἀποθνῄσκοντες,
καὶ ἰδού, ζῶμεν· ὡς παιδευόμενοι, καὶ μὴ θανατούμενοι· ὡς λυπούμενοι, ἀεὶ δὲ χαίροντες· ὡς
πτωχοί, πολλοὺς δὲ πλουτίζοντες· ὡς μηδὲν ἔχοντες, καὶ πάντα κατέχοντες.
AHEPA "Harris J Booras" Ch. #406, Watertown, MA
GOSPEL READING
3rd Sunday of Luke
The Reading is from Luke 7:11-16
At that time, Jesus went to a city called Nain, and his disciples and
a great crowd went with him. As he drew near to the gate of the
city, behold, a man who had died was being carried out, the only
son of his mother, and she was a widow; and a large crowd from
the city was with her. And when the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her and said to
her, "Do not weep." And he came and touched the bier, and the bearers stood still. And
he said, "Young man, I say to you, arise." And the dead man sat up, and began to speak.
And he gave him to his mother. Fear seized them all; and they glorified God, saying, "A
great prophet has arisen among us!" and "God has visited his people!"

Κατὰ Λουκᾶν 7:11-16
Τῷ καιρῷ ἐκείνῳ, ἐπορεύετο εἰς πόλιν καλουμένην Ναΐν· καὶ συνεπορεύοντο αὐτῷ οἱ μαθηταὶ αὐτοῦ
ἱκανοὶ καὶ ὄχλος πολύς. ὡς δὲ ἤγγισε τῇ πύλῃ τῆς πόλεως, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐξεκομίζετο τεθνηκὼς υἱὸς
μονογενὴς τῇ μητρὶ αὐτοῦ, καὶ αὕτη ἦν χήρα, καὶ ὄχλος τῆς πόλεως ἱκανὸς ἦν σὺν αὐτῇ. καὶ ἰδὼν
αὐτὴν ὁ Κύριος ἐσπλαγχνίσθη ἐπ᾿ αὐτῇ καὶ εἶπεν αὐτῇ· μὴ κλαῖε· καὶ προσελθὼν ἥψατο τῆς σοροῦ, οἱ
δὲ βαστάζοντες ἔστησαν, καὶ εἶπε· νεανίσκε, σοὶ λέγω, ἐγέρθητι. καὶ ἀνεκάθισεν ὁ νεκρὸς καὶ ἤρξατο
λαλεῖν, καὶ ἔδωκεν αὐτὸν τῇ μητρὶ αὐτοῦ. ἔλαβε δὲ φόβος πάντας καὶ ἐδόξαζον τὸν Θεόν, λέγοντες
ὅτι προφήτης μέγας ἐγήγερται ἐν ἡμῖν, καὶ ὅτι ἐπεσκέψατο ὁ Θεὸς τὸν λαὸν αὐτοῦ. καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ὁ
λόγος οὗτος ἐν ὅλῃ τῇ ᾿Ιουδαίᾳ περὶ αὐτοῦ καὶ ἐν πάσῃ τῇ περιχώρῳ.
Greetings to all ! "ENJOY OCTOBER, COLUMBUS DAY and the OXI Celebration !"
Good news: According to an update from HHT Nicholas Nikas of District 7 our "Socrates"
team of 3 -who won the HHT Trophy last year will re-try for a 2nd win this year ! Details are
being currently finalized.
Due to intervening sad events (see below) and logistics we decided in our last meeting to
postpone the Celebration and Benefit fundraiser (for the Metaxas Scholarships) in midOctober, 2016. Instead of conducting the event, we felt it would make more sense for our
members and members of the Taxiarchae Watertown community to support the AHEPA
Metaxas Scholarships by sending us donations in any amount towards this cause.
On a very sad note for our AHEPA #406 Watertown chapter we informed our members and
all the Watertown Community that our Brother, old friend and well known to all in the Watertown
Church community, AHEPA Secretary, Thanasis Vulgaropulos suffered a massive stroke in
mid-August. Thanasis is currently at the Kindred Hospital, 1515 Commonwealth Ave which
is in close proximity (past St Elizabeth's Hospital on Warren St and an immediate right turn on
the Commonwealth access road up the hill.) He will have a very difficult rehab and will need
visitors to see him and give him support in this very hard period of his life, so we urge all who
know him to visit him and show their support. Perastika!
In addition, we announced the passing (on Aug. 31) of our Br. Panos Spiliakos who had
served also as President of the Pan Macedonian association. AHEPA officers conducted the
customary ceremony in his honor at his wake.
Our meeting of Oct. 13, 2016 in the Atrium of the Taxiarchae Hellenic Cultural Center, 25 Bigelow
Ave, Watertown, MA will begin at 7:00 pm with a Social half-hour with refreshments followed by the
Main business meeting at 7:30 pm with the following agenda:




Reports by the President, Secretary, Treasurer and other officers, followed by reports of
Chapter Committees on coming activities and future plans.
Remarks by visiting District / Regional and Supreme officers, if present.
Processing of new membership applications, as submitted.
Other items and future business, and Other proposals for the benefit of the Order of AHEPA
To all our AHEPA members: Please, pay your Membership Dues ($70.) for 2016 if you have
not done so. Thanks to all members who have already paid theirs ! Please, recruit friends or
family members who may be interested in joining AHEPA. All are welcomed ! New innovative
ideas are needed to sustain and expand our chapter membership and contribute to AHEPA’s
causes. Please, let us know if a brother is sick or in need.

The Greek Orthodox Ladies Philoptochos Society is one of the largest and oldest philanthropic
women’s organizations in this country. The word “philoptochos” translated means “friend of
the poor”. Officially, Philoptochos helps those in need and promotes the philanthropic
endeavors of the Archdiocese. Unofficially, Philoptochos is the “heart” of every Greek Orthodox
Church community. Comprised of women in all stages of life, the Taxiarchae Philoptochos
supports our seniors, our youth, is an invaluable partner during the parish’s annual fundraising
festival, and can always be called upon when someone is sick or needs a helping hand.
Last year we donated to over 20 charities including the Philoxenia House, Hellenic Children’s
Cardiac Fund, the Watertown Food Bank and the Boston Diocese Camp.
We invite you to join our ministry. Just take a moment to reflect on how a strong church
community enriches your life and your family’s. An active Philoptochos goes hand in hand with
a strong church community. We all lead busy lives as we strive to fulfill our roles as mothers,
daughters, spouses and working professionals, but we need YOUR help to help others. Please
take that first step to join us and, remember, your commitment level is totally up to you.
Becoming a member is easy. Simply fill out the form above and forward it with a
membership donation to Philoptochos via the church office. Please keep in mind that our local
chapter of Philoptochos is required to forward $20 of every offering, as an obligation, to the
National and Diocese Philpotochos so only the amount over our obligation stays with us.
Please offer your love and service by joining the philoptochos in its philanthropic efforts.

2016 STEWARDSHIP COMMITMENT CARD
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How do I become a member of the parish?
Membership in the Orthodox Church begins at baptism (Chrismation for some) and continues throughout
our life. We are united with Christ through the sacraments, or mysteries of the Church and through our
faithful offering of our entire selves to Jesus Christ. Our Archdiocese requires each parish to distinguish
between voting members and non-voting members. A voting member is over 18 years of age and turns
in a signed stewardship commitment card, committing a portion of time, talent and treasure to the
Church. The Archdiocese also requires the voting member to remain current through the year on their
commitments. Keep in mind that true membership in the Body of Christ involves living according to His
word and with His Church.
Why must I commit to give a specific amount?
Please keep in mind that your stewardship of money is kept in the strictest of confidence. However, we
do compile the amounts anticipated to better plan our budget.
What if I cannot fulfill my stewardship commitment?
During the course of a year, people’s circumstances change. Your stewardship is valued because it is
made out of your love for God and His Church. Please do not be concerned if you are unable to meet
your stewardship commitment—we are glad you are part of this parish.
CHRISTIAN STEWARDSHIP IS:
 Learning how to be a responsible and concerned caretaker of Christ’s Church; it is learning how to
enjoy Church life and be happy in Church work, for in Her dwells the fullness of the Spirit of God.

Our active commitment to use all our time, talent and treasure for the benefit of humankind in
grateful acknowledgement of Christ’s redeeming love.

In the Gospel of Saint Matthew

last. We must ask, “One hundred
years from now, where will our
possessions be?” Our greatest
blessing is our family. As Orthodox
