Tweet Нравится St. Tikhon’s Seminary Choir benefit concert held in Bethlehem, PA (+ VIDEO) Moscow, February 23, 2017      St. Tikhon’s Seminary held a benefit concert last night at St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Cathedral in Bethlehem, Pa., sponsored by the Pan-Orthodox Clergy Brotherhood of the Lehigh Valley, which includes thirteen parishes throughout the region. The performance, “Psalms and Hymns,” presented Orthodox liturgical pieces in English especially meant to highlight the Biblical foundations of Orthodox Christian worship, which is especially relevant as about a hundred people who had never been to an Orthodox church before came to the concert thanks to a write-up in the regional newspaper. Drawing especially on the thousand-year-old tradition of monastic singing in Russia, the program included examples of Znamenny Chant as well as more recent arrangements by composers from the Moscow Synodal School and the Trinity-Saint Sergius Lavra. Also included on the program were arrangements by the late Deacon Sergei Trubachev an original work by Mr. Sheehan, based on Znamenny chant, and a Byzantine-style psalm popular on Mt. Athos. Proceeds from the concert will go to benefit seminarians of St. Tikhon’s. A video clip from the concert is available below: 23 февраля 2017 г.

The Synod also adopted a statement which presents the historical facts indicating that the ecclesiastical belonging of the Kievan Metropolia to the Moscow Patriarchate is indisputable, no matter what attempts are being made to review the church history now, 300 years after their reunification. The statement calls upon the Local Orthodox Churches to initiate a brotherly pan-Orthodox discussion of the ecclesial situation in Ukraine. Why is it necessary now? Firstly, the granting of the autocephalous status is the concern of the entire Orthodoxy, not of one Church only. Secondly, the granting of the tomos to the schismatics will have catastrophic consequences for the Orthodox unity. According to the Orthodox ecclesiology, one cannot be in the Eucharistic communion both with the canonical Church and with those who fell away from it. Such a step will lead to the complete break in communion between the Patriarchates of Moscow and Constantinople, and this rift will be hard to overcome. I am acquainted with many hierarchs of the Orthodox Church of Greece and believe that most of them take to heart what is going on in regard to the so-called ‘Ukrainian autocephaly.’ Many of these hierarchs have been to Ukraine and to Russia; many of them have received pilgrims from the Moscow Patriarchate – from both Russia and Ukraine. We have reached a dangerous point, but I still have a hope that Their Eminences and Graces the archpastors of the Church of Greece will devote special attention to the current critical situation and will do all in their power to initiate the pan-Orthodox discussion of the Ukrainian church issue, for the further unilateral actions in relation to the Ukrainian autocephaly can lead to the most tragic consequences for the unity of the entire Holy Orthodoxy.

The Ukrainian Orthodox Church finds “Kyiv Patriarchate’s” proposal to hold services by turns unacceptable Kiev, October 22, 2015 The proposal of the “Kyiv Patriarchate” to the canonical Ukrainian Orthodox Church to celebrate services in disputed churches by turns is unacceptable, said Archpriest Nikolai Danilevich, deputy chairman of the Department for External Relations (DECR) of UOC MP, in his interview with the Argumenty I Fakty newspaper, reports Pravlife.org .      “Our Church disapproves of the idea of performing services alternately—this is the position of His Beatitude Metropolitan Onufry of Kiev and All the Ukraine. Our experience tells us that the practice of holding services by turns does not promote settlement of the conflict. It is better when each community builds a church for itself and the one helps it as far as possible,” the Church representative noted. According to Archpriest Nikolai, confrontations between parishes crop up only in the villages that have only one church. In cities, where there are many churches, such problems do not arise. “And, by the way, whenever representatives of the “Kyiv Patriarchate” are talking about alternate services, they should, first of all, make these steps themselves. But, for some reason, when recently a parish of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic (Uniate) Church in the Turylche village of the Ternopil region appealed to the “Kyiv Patriarchate” with such a request, it was turned down,” stressed vice-chairman of the UOC MP DECR. In his interview the archpriest has emphasized that following the takeover of churches of the canonical Ukrainian Orthodox Church the faithful continue attending services in adapted buildings or build new churches. “That is why we are not afraid of these seizures, since they are taking only our walls, but not people. And walls without people are worth not much. Nevertheless, we will defend each church on the basis of the current legislation of the Ukraine. I believe that in the present situation the interfaith conflicts should be resolved exclusively on the legal basis,” Archpriest Nikolai Danilevich said. At the present time, he added, the lawyers are working with each individual case of violation of rights of the communities, including the incidents in Katerinovka and Kolosova in the Ternopil region. “There were problems in the Pticha village of the Rivne region, but the problem there has already been solved judicially. The court confirmed the rights of UOC MP believers, and their church was returned to them. I feel certain that it is always possible to come to an agreement without court—only showing respect toward each other,” Archpriest Nikolai said in conclusion. 26 октября 2015 г.

Journeying Up the Mountain: A Sacred Choral Music Workshop with Maestro Vladimir Gorbik/Православие.Ru Journeying Up the Mountain: A Sacred Choral Music Workshop with Maestro Vladimir Gorbik An Interview with Isaac Crabtree Jesse Dominick , Isaac Crabtree On September 27 we posted an interview with Benedict Sheehan, choirmaster at St. Tikhon " s Monastery and Seminary in Pennsylvania, in which he shared his thoughts on the state of Church music in America and about the various projects with which he is involved. One of those projects is the Patriarch Tikhon Russian-American Music Institute (PaTRAM) which is dedicated to promoting high-quality Church singing, through private instructions and also through Master Classes throughout America. September 2 —6 the institute offered its first Master Class in Russia, at the Trinity-St. Sergius Lavra Podvoriye in Moscow, where Institute co-founder Maestro Vladimir Gorbik, of whom Benedict spoke, is choirmaster. Singers from America, Canada, and Russia came together for an intensive workshop in Slavonic choral music, as well as several pilgrimage-outings, under the direction of Maestro Gorbik. We spoke with Isaac Crabtree of St. John Chrysostom Orthodox Church in House Springs, MO, one of the thirty-five participants in the Master Class, about the experience. His thoughts and reflections are a testament to the work of PaTRAM and give us insight into the depth of the Orthodox choral tradition, and what can be accomplished both technically and spiritually when we give our best effort and our first fruits to the Lord. —Give us a run-down of the daily schedule of the conference. —This was a four-day Master Class, Wednesday—Saturday, that also included several planned excursions to holy places. Our final practice was on Saturday afternoon and we sang the Vigil at the Podvoriye Saturday evening, and the Divine Liturgy on Sunday. Each day was scheduled differently, but all were a combination of rehearsals or divine services and either planned or informal excursions.

It is a temptation for the Church to accommodate itself to the world in a way that compromises its own heritage. Certainly we need to communicate with the world, to reach out to the world, but the world expects the Church to retain its integrity and its witness and it is because of that integrity and that witness that they return to the Church. And this becomes the answer to the challenges of the modern world, that the Church does not change; it retains the same witness it had over the centuries, and as it gave people hope, consolation and profound joy in past centuries, so can it do so even today.

Everyday Heroes: An Interview with Archimandrite Tikhon (Shevkunov) Archimandrite Tikhon (Shevkunov) Архимандрит Тихон (Шевкунов) In his address to the Federal Assembly [on December 12, 2012.—Trans.], President Vladimir Putin stated: “It is painful for me to say this, but I must say it: Russian society is experiencing an evident deficit of spiritual bonds.” The dissociation between “fathers and sons,” the lack of understanding among people even of the same generation, and sometimes also the loss of Russia’s traditional moral values… Until this year we hadn’t hear anything like this from the leaders of our government. Whether we like it or not, after the Soviet period with its coercive ideology, we hurled ourselves, as usual, in the opposite direction: in this case, towards complete ideological confusion and ambiguity of meaning and purpose. While maintaining every aversion to coercive ideology, more and more people are gradually coming to the conclusion that the opposite extreme, a completely de-ideologized state, is spiritually weak and simply unsustainable. So what instead? A new ideology? That’s just what I wouldn’t want at all: an ideology labored over behind desks and obligatory for all. Fortunately, however, in the realm of human convictions and worldviews there are things that are much more significant and effective than any ideology.    For example? Eternal values. For people today that sounds a little too passionate. Perhaps it might be better to say “core values”? That’s what people today say should be actively cultivated when talking about Russia’s youth policy.          And may I ask which “core values” are most in demand among young people today? We know this from numerous opinion polls. Health comes first, then quality of life and family, then money and material goods. Security. The ability to find lucrative, interesting work. Then friends. And, finally, love for the Motherland. Well, if these are indeed the principles values of today’s young people, then our position really is worse than can be imagined. After all, if we translate this hierarchy of values from the language of sociology into Russian, this is what we hear: “Guarantee me a quality education, lucrative work, security, decent housing, and everything needed for good health—and then my friends and I will love the Motherland.”
