An all night vigil 21.06.2008
On 21st of June, when we celebrate the memory of the transfer of the relics of the holy martyr Theodore Stratelates, in the monastery of Saint Prohor Pchinski, an all night vigil was served by Father Gavril.
The whole service was fulfilled with grace in the ascetic-hesychastic spirit of Macedonian Orthodox monasticism, where the faithful people received the Holy Devine Mysteries.
Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.
But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
For if ye love them which love you, what reward have ye? Do not even the publicans the same?
And if ye salute your brethren only, what do ye more than others? Do not even the publicans so? (Mat.5:44-48)
Seno}no bdenie
Vo no}ta sproti sabota na 21vi juni, koga se ~estvuva spomenot na prenosot na mo{tite na svetiot ma~enik Teodor Stratilat, otec Gavril otslu`i seno}no bdenie vo manastirot na sveti Prohor P~inski. Celata slu`ba be{e prosledena so izobilna blagodat vo asketsko-isihasti~kiot duh na makedonskoto pravoslvano mona{tvo, na koja vernite se pri~estija so svetite Bo`estveni Tajni.
No bidete sovr{eni, kako {to e sovr{en va{iot Otec
nebesen.
A Jas, pak, vi velam: qubete gi neprijatelite svoi, blagoslovuvajte gi onie {to ve kolnat, poravete im dobro na onie {to ve mrazat i molete se za onie {to ve navreduvaat i gonat, za da bidete sinovi na va{iot Otec nebesen; za{to On go ostava Svoeto sonce da gree nad lo{ite i nad dobrite, i pra}a do`d na pravenite i na gre{nite. Oti, ako ako gi qubite onie {to ve miluvaat vas, kakva }e vi bide nagradata? Zar ne go pravat toa i mitnicite? I, ako gi pozdravuvate samo bra}ata svoi, {to osobeno pravite? Ne postapuvaat li taka i neznabo{cite? (Mat. 5:44-48)
