Thy Nativity, O Christ our God, hath shined
the light of knowledge upon the world; for thereby
they that worshipped the stars were instructed by a
star to worship Thee, the Sun of Righteousness,
and to know Thee, the Dayspring from on high.
O Lord, glory be to Thee.

“ For unto us a Child is born, a Son is given . . .
And His name shall be called the Angel of Great Counsel,
Wonderful Counselor, the Mighty God ! ”
Beloved Parishioners,
Please take time during this Advent Lenten Season to begin focusing ourselves on the truth of
Christmas. The most important message of Christmas is that of joyous giving. It’s the message of our
seasonal classics like A Christmas Carol and It’s A Wonderful Life. More importantly, it’s the
message of that first Christmas. For the baby in Bethlehem’s manger was a gift, a present from a
loving heavenly Father to His lost and hurting children, a gift the Scriptures says brought “good tidings
of great joy” to giver and receiver alike.
The message of joyous giving and redemption are the most important messages of the Incarnation of
our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Where will we find happiness in the truest meaning of this Feast
day? Look around you… what are your opportunities to give with joy? These are your best chances!
As we await and prepare for this Holy Feast, I invite you to open your hearts, your minds and your
souls, to His divine presence and allow Him to bring the truest Joy into your being. Allow the Prince of
Peace Who has entered this world and our human condition, to dwell in our midst, and to guide us on
our most sure and certain path of eternal peace and joy. May His blessings be upon you and your
families during this beautiful season, and may your worship and fellowship be filled with His Joy
throughout the New Year.
I pray that you will make every effort to come and give Glory to the New Born King during our Divine
Services. The schedule for the Nativity and New Year’s Eve Day are as follows:
Wednesday, December 24, 2014
10:00 A.M. Great Hours of the Nativity
6:00 P.M. Vespers and Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom ~ Holy Nativity
Thursday, December 25, 2014
9:30 A.M. Orthros
10:00 A.M. Divine Liturgy of St. Basil the Great ~ Holy Nativity
Wednesday, December 31, 2014
7:00 P.M. Vesperal Divine Liturgy for the new year & Circumcision of Christ
Followed by the New Year’s Eve Dinner & Dance
May the Joy of our Lord and Savior’s Nativity illumine all of His creation!
With Love in Christ,
+Father Constantine Simeonidis

MINISTRY RESOURCES
The Holy Trinity operating budget for the calendar year 2014 will be $822,916. Our Stewardship giving
should support all the Parish Ministries and the entire operating budget.
That would mean each family gives ONLY $34 per week
We should not depend on special affairs to meet our budget, for this is our direct responsibility. Stewardship places the responsibility
on us, for we are the recipients of God’s gifts and play an active role in perpetuating His work of salvation. The expenses of our Parish
are vital to our Church for: •Keeping in Touch With You •Maintaining our Buildings •Those Who Serve Us •Worship and Education
•National Ministries Commitment.
The quality of our service as a Parish, Metropolis, and Archdiocese depends directly on the level of your generous giving.
