ТАЇНСТВО СПОВІДІ є важливою частиною Різдвяного Посту. Воно підготовлює нас до привітання нашого Спасителя в цей світ і наше життя. Ми всі повинні посповідатись, якщо ми хочемо отримати Святе Причастя на свято Різдва і в подальшому.

HOLODOMOR: As we conclude the month of November, which is Holodomor remembrance month, we will remember the souls of those innocent victims of Bolshevic’s terror with a special memorial litany during Liturgy today. Those unfamiliar with the Holodomor in Ukraine should know that between 1932 and 1934, at least 7 million (possibly as high as 10 million) Ukrainians were starved to death in a genocide conducted by stalin’s regime. In June of 1933, an average of 30,000 people PER DAY died. Please pray for the souls of these innocent victims.
ГОЛОДОМОР: Завершуючи листопад, який є місяцем пам’яті жертв Голодомору, ми згадаємо душі невинних жертв більшовицького терору спеціальною поминальною єктенією під час Літургії сьогодні. Ті, хто не знайомий з Голодомором в Україні, повинні знати, що між 1932 і 1934 роками щонайменше 7 мільйонів (можливо, навіть 10 мільйонів) українців були заморені голодом під час геноциду, проведеного сталінським режимом. У червні 1933 року помирало в середньому 30 000 українців на день. Будь ласка, помоліться за душі цих невинних жертв.
