He was born when our Lord Jesus Christ yet lived upon the earth. The parents of Pancratius were natives of Antioch. Hearing the good news of Jesus Christ, Pancratius\u2019 father took his young son with him and went to Jerusalem in order to see the great Teacher for himself. The miracles astonished him, and when he heard the divine Teaching, he then believed in Christ as the Son of God. He became close with the disciples of the Lord, especially with the holy Apostle Peter. It was during this period that young Pancratius got to know the holy Apostle Peter. After the Ascension of the Savior, one of the Apostles came to Antioch and baptized the parents of Pancratius together with all their household. When the parents of Pancratius died, he left behind his inherited possessions and went to Pontus and began to live in a cave, spending his days in prayer and deep spiritual contemplation. The holy Apostle Peter, while passing through those parts, visited Pancratius at Pontus. He took him along to Antioch, and then to Sicily, where the holy Apostle Paul then was. There the holy Apostles Peter and Paul made Saint Pancratius Bishop of Taormina in Sicily. Saint Pancratius toiled zealously for the Christian enlightenment of the people. In a single month, he built a church where he celebrated Divine services. The number of believers quickly grew, and soon almost all the people of Taormina and the surrounding cities accepted the Christian Faith. Saint Pancratius governed his flock peacefully for many years. However, pagans plotted against the saint and seizing an appropriate moment, they captured and stoned him. Thus, Saint Pancratius ended his life as a martyr. The saint\u2019s relics are in the church named for him in Rome.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The True Meaning of the Word \u201cCATHOLIC\u201d <\/strong>in the Creed: \u201cIn One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church.\u201d The word \u201ccatholic\u201d means \u201cuniversal\u201d as referring to the Church of all times, peoples, and places,\u00a0<em>Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all and in all (Col. 3:11).<\/em> It comes from the Greek\u00a0katholikos, meaning\u00a0\u201cthroughout the whole.\u201d The Creed\u2019s language thus expresses the universality of the Church, which cannot be confined by ethnicity, geography, culture, or area, but speaks to the worldwide people of God throughout the ages. It doesn\u2019t mean that everyone on earth without exception is a part of the Church, but that whoever repents of their sins and trusts in Christ will be saved, no matter who they are, where they come from, or what they\u2019ve done (Acts 2:21; Romans 10:9\u201313). A celebrated definition of \u201ccatholic\u201d in the early Church was given by St. Vincent of Lerins, the 5th century monastic Father of Gaul, who in his\u00a0<em>Communitorium<\/em>\u00a0says: \u201cEvery care should be taken to hold fast to what has been believed everywhere, always, and by all. That is truly and properly \u2018catholic,\u2019 as indicated by the force and etymology of the name itself, which comprises everything truly universal\u201d. The name \u201ccatholic\u201d has been elevated and appropriated by the \u201cRoman Catholic\u201d church, but\u00a0the teaching <em>\u201cthat has been believed everywhere, always, and by all\u201d <\/em>of the early Church has been preserved in the Orthodox Church, which even to this day can be and still is called \u201ccatholic.\u201d The Roman Catholic (Western) church separated from the True Church in the year 1054 after changing the Creed and wrongly claiming supremacy of the Bishop of Rome (Pope) over the other bishops. Drifting further from its origin, the Western church was then shattered into a myriad of sects by the Protestant Reformation. However, in Ukraine, the Balkans, the Middle East, and elsewhere, the True Apostolic Church continued to flourish, preserving the Faith pure and unchanged. Today this Church is known as the Orthodox Church. It is a haven for those seeking Christ\u2019s truth and salvation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A SPECIAL THANK YOU:\u00a0<\/strong>The Angels Club thanks Pani Matka Oksana Pokotylo for donating her recent winnings back to the Angels Club Treasury.\u00a0 May God grant Pani Matka Oksana Many Blessed Years!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>+ + +<\/strong><strong> \u00a0CHURCH SCHOOL AND YOUTH MINISTRY NEWS<\/strong><strong> \u00a0+ + +<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>A reminder that <\/strong>the donations from the coffee hour will go to the <strong>Youth Ministry <\/strong>instead of the Scholarship Committee from <strong>now<\/strong> through <strong>September 3.<\/strong>\u00a0 The Youth Ministry sponsors parties,\u00a0 mini-golfing and bowling events, Mother\u2019s Day and Father\u2019s Day treats, gifts for Church School graduates, greeting cards and gifts for young adults and shut-ins, decorating the trees, church hall and caroling at Christmas and placing flags on veterans\u2019 graves for Memorial Day.\u00a0\u00a0 All of the children of the parish are invited to participate in our activities which are solely funded by personal donations and the income from \u201cCoffee and\u2026\u201d\u00a0 <strong>Please be generous.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Warm thanks<\/strong> go to Joyce Dygus for her generous donation of $25 to help defray the cost of postage for sending Sunday bulletins to shut-ins.
