Saint George was the patron saint and protector of several of the great builders of the Russian state. Saint Vladimir’s son, Yaroslav the Wise (in holy Baptism George), advanced the veneration of the saint in the Russian Church. He built the city of Yuriev [i.e., “of Yurii.” “Yurii” is the diminutive of “George”, as “Ivan” is of “John”], he also founded the Yuriev monastery at Novgorod, and he built a church of Saint George the Victory Bearer at Kiev. The day of the consecration of Saint George’s Church in Kiev, November 26, 1051 by Saint Hilarion, Metropolitan of Kiev and All Rus, has entered into the liturgical treasury of the Church as a special church feastday. Yuriev Day is beloved by the Russian people as an “autumn Feast of Saint George.” The name of Saint George was also borne by the founder of Moscow, Yurii Dolgoruky (+ 1157), who was the builder of many churches dedicated to Saint George, and the builder of the city of Yuriev-Polsk. In the year 1238 the heroic fight of the Russian nation against the Mongol Horde was led by the Great Prince Yurii (George) Vsevolodovich of Vladimir (February 4), who fell at the Battle at the Sita River. His memory, like that of Igor the Brave, and defender of his land, was celebrated in Russian spiritual poems and ballads. The first Great Prince of Moscow, when Moscow had become the center of the Russian Land, was Yurii Danilovich (+ 1325), the son of Saint Daniel of Moscow, and grandson of Saint Alexander Nevsky. From that time Saint George the Victory Bearer, depicted as a horseman slaying the serpent, appeared on Moscow’s coat of arms, and became an emblem of the Russian state. This has strengthened Russia’s connections with Christian nations, and especially with Iberia (Georgia, the Land of Saint George). The Orthodox Church in America 6 мая 2017 г.

A Russian Orthodox Church Will Be Built in Chile " s Second-Largest City/Православие.Ru A Russian Orthodox Church Will Be Built in Chile " s Second-Largest City January 22, 2013 Concepcion is Chile’s second-largest city with a population of 1.5 million. Among the Orthodox Christians living there are Russian emigres of the post-World War II period and their descendants, Russian and Ukrainian immigrants after the fall of the USSR, Palestinians, as well as Chilean converts. Orthodox services have become a regular occurrence since March, 2006, in a building in the Arab section known as Estadio Arabe. They are conducted mostly in Spanish, some prayers are read in Church Slavonic and Arabic. Concepcion’s Protopriest Alexei Aedo Vilugron of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia conducts the services. The parish belongs to ROCOR’s South American Diocese under His Grace Bishop John of Caracas and South America. Fr Alexei is Chilean by birth, having accepted Orthodox Christianity with his heart and soul. By his efforts and persistence, his focus and a great deal of labor, with reliance on God’s help, work on building the first-ever Orthodox Church in the south of Chile commenced in August 2011. The consecration of the cornerstone and erection of a cross on the site of the future church was performed by Vladyka John on December 5, 2010, in the presence of representatives of the local authorities and of the Russian Embassy. The Palestinian community of Concepcion donated the parcel of land for the church (costing approximately US and measuring 758 sq. m.). Donations by the parishioners covered all the expenses of the preliminary construction stages (planning and documentation). In July 2011, the community received aid from the Chilean government in the amount of 30M pesos (about The funds covered closing the perimeter of the property, excavations, foundation (1.5 m deep and 1.1 m wide), and the metal framework for the walls. Concepcion is in within Chile’s earthquake zone: the last earthquake, which struck in February 2010, measured 8.8 on the Richter Scale. For this reason, construction standards here are stringent and costly. Construction has been temporarily halted due to a lack of funds. The second stage of construction will cost We would be grateful for any help in building our church to the glory of God.

It is therefore likely that the author of our text simply failed to mention the Gospel reading. See the analysis below. 58  Until the 11 th century, this litany preceded the Trisagion; only a few 11 th century manuscripts witness its transposition to the earlier point in the liturgy, which became normative in the 12 th –13 th centuries (Juan Mateos, La célébration de la Parole dans la liturgie byzantine. Étude historique (OCA 191, Roma: Pont. Institutum Studiorum Orientalium, 1971), 30). 61  Despite Afanasyeva, the contents of the treatise cannot be described as «a struggle between the angels, who are taking part in the liturgy and who help the priest to celebrate, and the devil, who tries to frighten the believers and to obstruct the celebration» (Afanasyeva, Old Slavonic Interpretations... 63). A story of such a struggle is indeed known, but from a different liturgical commentary, which is found in some late South Slavonic manuscripts, ascribed to St. Ephrem (Mirkovich, «Angels and Demons...»; Ivanova, «The Sermon of St. Basil the Great and of Father Ephraim...»), and which is interrelated to the late reworkings of Pseudo-Gregory’s treatise. But in the pristine redaction of the treatise, as well as in its oldest Russian translation, the devil is depicted as defeated from the very beginning of the liturgy (§ 6). However, §§ 16–17 describe a suspicious man «with sharp teeth like arrows and bloodshot eyes», possibly an allusion to the appearance of the devil. But the only function of this man is to try to expel «those standing in the church», and he by no means obstructs the celebration itself. Therefore, Afanasyeva’s generalisation is surprising. 63  See Michael Asmus, «Concerning the Question of Consecration of Commemorative Particles During the Divine Liturgy» [original title in Russian: Асмус М., «К вопросу об освящении поминальных частиц за Божественной литургией " ], in Вестник ПСТГУ I: Богословие. Философия 14 (2005), 5–22. 64  See Barbara Sweeney Mustain, The Melismos: the Child as Sacrifice in Byzantine Art (M.A.

В Римской литургии это молитва " Quam oblationem " [каковое приношение] до установительных слов; в восточных анафорах это эпиклезис Святого Духа. К этому еще необходимо, по мнению Шеффонтэна, и знамение креста, как благословение. В XVII в. доминиканец Комбефис также защищал эпиклезу, как молитву, осуществляющую установительные слова Христа. Историко-критические исследования ряда ученых в области патрологии и литургики заставили призадуматься над фактом повсеместного на Востоке распространения эпиклезы и поставить вопрос о ee происхождении и сакраментальном значении. После работ Ренодо по изданию восточных литургий в 1715-1716 гг. и издания Dom Touttee в 1720 г. творений святого Кирилла Иерусалимского было высказано, как ими, так в особенности и ораторианцем Le Brun мнение в пользу эпиклезы Этим установительные слова не отрицаются, за ними остается их освятительная сила, но само освящение обусловлено эпиклезой. Мнение Ле Брэна породило очень обширную полемику. Ему возражали в 1717 г. Memoires de Trevoux, и оживленный обмен мнений имел место в течение ряда лет. В 1718г. в Париже появляется " Lettre d’un cure du diocese de Paris touchant le sacrifice de la messe " . B 1718 же году в " Journal de Trevoux " — " Reflexions sur la lettre d’un cure du diocese de Paris " . В 1718 — ответ Le Brun, " Lettre du P. Le Brun touchant la part qu’ont les fideles a la celebration de la messe " . B 1721 г. англичанин Грабе встал на сторону Ле Брэна и в защиту эпиклезы в своем трактате " De forma consecrationis eucharisticae. а Defense of the Greek Church against the Roman in the Article of the Consecration of the Eucharistical Elements " (London, 1721). B 1727 иезуит Bougeant возражал Le Brun в " Refutation de la dissertation du P. Le Brun sur la forme de la consecration " . Le Brun на это ответил в 1727 же году " Defence de l’ancien sentiment sur la forme de la consecration de l’eucharistie " (Paris, 1727). B 1728 г. возражала против эпиклезы Сорбонна. В следующем, 1729 г., появляются труды: иезуита Hongnant под заглавием " Apologie des anciens docteurs de la faculte de Paris, Claudes de Saintes et Nicolas Isambert, contre une lettre du P. Le Brun " и продолжение труда Bougeant " Traite theologique sur la forme de la consecration de l’eucharistie " . B 1730 и 1731 годах выступают против эпиклезы Breyer et Orsi (Breyer. " Nouvelle dissertation sur les paroles de la consecration de la sainte eucharistie " . Troyes, 1730; Orsi, O. P. " Dissertatio theologica de invocatione Spiritue Sancti in liturgiis Graecorum et Orientalium " . Milano, 1731). В 1740 г. Petrus Benedictus пишет свой " Antirrhetikon alterum adversus Le Brunum et Renaudotium " .

On November 21, 1917, the feast of the Entry into the Temple of the Mother of God, the enthronement of Metropolitan Tikhon took place. According to the tradition of the Eastern Orthodox Churches, a thrice “seating” of the elected Patriarch was conducted. During the age of Muscovite Rus’, there was a second episcopal consecration of the bishop in the “Patriarchal rank.” Three weeks later, on December 8, there was a council resolution worked out “On the rights and duties of His Holiness the Patriarch of Moscow and All the Russias.” In it, among other things, was stated: “The Patriarch of the Russian Church is its head hierarch. The Patriarch is the first among bishops who are equal to him.” The term now in use of “First Hierarch” (предстоятелем or первосвятителем) arose several decades later. Due to the new socio-political realities that came upon Russia from the end of October 1917, the Local Council was forced to stop its work earlier than planned. It has gone down in history for its two acts: the restoration of the Patriarchy and the election itself of the “first bishop among equals”. As opposed to all the subsequent Moscow Patriarchs of the twentieth century, His Holiness Tikhon could be rightly considered the conciliar choice of all the people for the head hierarch of the Russian Church. 3 Mikail Babkin Translation by Orthochristian.com Pravoslavie.ru 18 ноября 2016 г.  Tsar Peter I (the Great) did away with the Patriarchy in Russia and instituted in its place rule by a Holy Synod, with an Ober Procurator presiding. This latter position was always held by a layman. This was an abrupt and, for Church and Orthodox society, rather destructive change.  This would mean the Holy Trinity-St. Sergius (near Moscow), Kiev Caves (Kiev), St. Alexander Nevsky (St. Petersburg) , and Pochaev (Volhynia-Western Ukraine) Lavras.  The current Patriarch, His Holiness Kirill, was elected in a similar but not identical way.
