In short, NO&#8230; According to Orthodox teaching, \u201cpride\u201d is the source of all sins. Pride is selfish, disobedient, and self-righteous. No wonder the first person to exercise pride was the devil, who, being the closest angel to God, rebelled against his Creator. So, we should ask ourselves this month: What are we really celebrating? Should we, Christians, teach our children that pride is good and needs to be celebrated every year in June? Is pride not a sin anymore? Is sexual immorality ok now?.. As Orthodox Christians, we should counter the celebrated vice of pride with often-scorned virtues of humility and true love\u2026 If we love our neighbors as ourselves, we will try to do what is best for them. Can anything be better than Heaven and eternal life with our Loving Creator? Of course, not! So, we should humbly remind ourselves and those, who are involved in certain lifestyles that: \u201c\u2026\u00a0neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals,\u00a0nor thieves, nor\u00a0<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0greedy, nor those habitually drunk, nor verbal abusers, nor swindlers, will\u00a0inherit the Kingdom of God.\u201d (1 Cor. 6, 9-10) It is out of Christian charity that we should pray during this month of \u201cpride\u201d, that <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">all God\u2019s children<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> may \u201cbe saved and come to the knowledge of the Truth\u201d (1 Tim. 2, 4). It\u2019s out of our Christian duty that we must remember the words of St. Paul: \u201cHave nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them.\u00a0It is shameful even to mention what the disobedient do in secret\u2026 Be very careful, then, how you live &#8211; not as unwise but as wise,<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">making the most of every opportunity,\u00a0because the days are evil. Therefore, do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord\u2019s will is.\u201d (Eph. 5, 11-17)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>WHY GO TO CHURCH?<\/b> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reason #1<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Because we are made to worship: We are all spiritual in that we have a soul, we are all religious in that we show reverence, love, and devotion through ceremonial prayer to the things our soul considers sacred. To deny one or the other or both is to deny the very essence of who we are, as humans. We are made in the image and likeness of God. The first four commandments are related to the spiritual, religious worship of God.\u00a01) I am God, don\u2019t have any others; 2) No idols; 3) Do not use Lord\u2019s name in vain; 4) Remember Sabbath and keep it holy. God knows us.\u00a0 He made us.\u00a0 If we do not worship the God of the Bible, the Father with His Son our Lord Jesus Christ, and His Holy Spirit, then we will worship something or someone else.\u00a0 That\u2019s an idol. We go to Church to fulfill who we are, to do what we were made to do. Could anyone honestly say I am a student and not attend school?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>FREE DENTAL CLINIC<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is offered to all at New Britian High School on <\/span><b>June 20-21<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">! <\/span><b>\u0411\u0415\u0417\u041a\u041e\u0428\u0422\u041e\u0412\u041d\u0410 \u0421\u0422\u041e\u041c\u0410\u0422\u041e\u041b\u041e\u0413\u0406\u0427\u041d\u0410 \u041a\u041b\u0406\u041d\u0406\u041a\u0410<\/b> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u0432\u0456\u0434\u0431\u0443\u0434\u0435\u0442\u044c\u0441\u044f \u0443 \u0432\u0438\u0449\u0456\u0439 \u0448\u043a\u043e\u043b\u0456 \u043c\u0456\u0441\u0442\u0430 \u041d\u043e\u0432\u0430 \u0411\u0440\u0438\u0442\u0430\u043d\u0456\u044f <\/span><b>20-21 \u0447\u0435\u0440\u0432\u043d\u044f<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>ANGELS CLUB:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Congratulations to the winners of the May drawing.
