구복단 - 9 Blessings (The Beatitudes)
주여, 당신의 나라에서 우리를 기억하소서.
마음이 가난한 사람은 행복하여라. 하늘나라가 그들의 것이니라.
슬퍼하는 사람은 행복하여라. 그들은 위로를 받을 것이니라.
온유한 사람은 해복하여라. 그들은 땅을 차지할 것이니라.
옳은 일에 주리고 목마른 사람은 행복하여라. 그들은 만족할 것이니라.
자비를 베푸는 사람은 행복하여라. 그들은 자비를 입을 것이니라.
마음이 깨끗한 사람은 행복하여라. 그들은 하느님을 뵙게 될 것이니라.
평화를 위하여 일하는 사람은 행복하여라. 그들은 하느님의 아들이 될 것이니라.
옳은 일을 하다가 박해를 받는 사람은 행복하여라. 하늘 나라가 그들이 것이니라.
나 때문에 모욕을 당하고 박해를 받으며 터무니없는 말로 갖은 비난을 다 받게 되면 너희는 행복하도다. 기뻐하고...

inexhaustiblecup:
We are half way through Holy Week now. Tonight the sacrament of Holy Unction was given. I stood and watched as those baptized received the sacrament.
I feel as though I’ve been asleep for 35 years. Being within the Holy Church for this last year and now, finally, experiencing the fullness of Lent…

lillypulitzerchic asked: Hello, Happy Palm Sunday! I'm from Virginia and I'm Greek Orthodox. My grandfather was a priest and my great-uncle was Patriarch Athenagoras. I'm very proud to be Orthodox and was pleasantly surprised that the Orthodox faith is practiced in Korea! Would you please tell me more about the Orthodox Church there? Thank you so much and God Bless! Have a fantastic Holy Week!

Theophan, Memory Eternal
Early this morning, Theophan, Catechumen at St. Paul’s Orthodox Church in Incheon, suddenly fell asleep in the Lord. He was to be baptized this Sunday, the 21st. He is a Korean War Veteran and, having lost an arm in the war, he still painted a large icon of the Baptism of Jesus. You can see that...

I wrote the following post on Clean Monday as a reflective piece on the beginning of my struggles with alcohol. I have told the story many times before but I have never just put it up for anyone to read. But, I feel comfortable doing that now. Not that a lot of you will read it or even care but,…

Inexhaustible Cup: Next few days →
inexhaustiblecup:
It is now March 14, 2013 - I am trying not to count the days of “no drink”, I am trying to focus on each day as it comes. So far, I’m doing OK. I won’t lie, there have been a few times that I would’ve liked to have a drink but, it was easy to say no. I don’t think it will be so easy in the…

My name is Erik and I have been battling Alcoholism for about seventeen years now. I have been in and out of AA, hospitals, relationships, jobs, and churches. One year ago, I tried to quit drinking; it lasted about one month before I gave in to drinking again, believing that “I could handle it”….
