  Had to add this to my own perorations about keeping it real with Holy Week services. My priest, Fr. John Dresko, sent it out in an email: It is from the late Metropolitan Anthony Bloom, who had such a gift with words.

  Of Your Mystical Supper, O Son of God,  Accept me today as a communicant.  For I will not speak of Your mysteries to Your enemies,  Neither like Judas will I give You a kiss,  But like the thief will I confess You.  Remember me, O Lord, in Your Kingdom! Syndicated by Atom

  — Authority:
  Following the Forty Days of Great Lent , we enter into Holy Week in which we realize Jesus is modeling for us what it is to be a leader/ruler in His church.  Setting an example for what constitutes the proper (Orthodox!) behavior for church leaders, Jesus, the Son of God, humbles Himself, making Himself a servant, ...

  Glory to God for All Things — Authority: 123
  For if the dead do not rise, then Christ is not risen. And if Christ is not risen, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins! Then also those who have fallen asleep in Christ have perished.
