:ому Xодити До Церкви? І якщо людина читає Євангеліє, крім того, що вона подає записки, то вона, з подивом почерпнувши Євангеліє, побачить, що нічого подібного Господь в Євангелії нікому, по-перше, не обіцяє, не гарантує і навіть не бажає. Які ж тоді дари людина може отримати від Бога і чи хоче вона цих дарів, чи бажає вона цих дарів? Або вона від Бога завжди хоче отримати тільки те, що потрібно їй в даний момент? Так найчастіше і буває, що людина приходить до церкви не тому, що вона чекає від Бога дарів, а за тим, що мені потрібно сьогодні ось стільки, а все інше не треба, рівно настільки мені треба сьогодні від Тебе отримати, далі Ти в моє життя не втручайся, далі Ти до мене не стукайся. І тоді виходить, звичайно, повна безглуздість, бо церква - те місце, де Бог зустрічає людину. Взагалі людина зустрічає Бога зазвичай поза церквою. І частіш за все так з нами трапляється, з людьми, які звернулися до Бога, пройшовши через якийсь життєвий шлях, свої помилки, через якісь людські скорботи, що ми зустрічаємо Бога зовсім не в церкві, а зустрічаємо Бога в найнесподіваніших місцях. Іноді в таких місцях, про які люди невіруючі можуть тільки сказати: Там немає Бога. А ось саме часто людина зустрічає Бога там, де іншим, більшості, здається, що там Бога бути не може або запитують: Ну, де ж Ти, Бог? Зустрічають Бога в страшних, страшних місцях, де не місце Бога, але людина може там зустріти Бога, і ця зустріч з Богом може її, і має, і так зазвичай буває, перетворити, зробити її життя зовсім іншим. І ось так людина після зустрічі з Богом дуже сильно змінюється внутрішньо, якщо ця зустріч відбулася. І зрозуміло - Бог чує людину скрізь. Не треба ходити до церкви, щоб бути почутим, це ж зрозуміло. Будеш ти в літаку летіти на небі - Бог тебе почує. Будеш ти під землею в шахті замурованим з шахтарями - Бог тебе почує. Будеш ти в підводному човні - Бог тебе почує. Де б ти не був - на землі, під землею, під водою, на воді, на іншій планеті разом з космонавтами, - Бог тебе почує, тому що Бог поруч з тобою завжди і скрізь. І, звичайно ж, коли люди говорять, що Бог у мене в душі - так, в тому числі і ... А другий момент, дуже важливий - Бог тебе чує, а як ти Його чуєш? А чи важливо тепер тобі почути Бога? А чи потрібно тобі почути Бога? Чи тепер тобі досить того, що Бог тебе почув, ти Його зустрів і тепер як би все, крапка, головне в твоєму житті визначено, все стоїть на своїх місцях? Ось тепер треба зрозуміти: а що означає - чути Бога? А що значить - йти до Нього? Що значить - жити у вірі? І тоді питання чomu ходити до церкви, чomu потрібна церква? набуває своєї актуальності, тому що церква - те місце, де Бог зустрічає людину не для того, щоб та служила Йому молебні, не для того, щоб та ставила Йому свічки перед іконами, не для того, щоб відбувалися якісь атрибути обрядів, атрибути віри, з яких людина може взяти собі щось зручне, те що зараз, в даний момент, їй необхідне.

Dormition of the Most Holy Mother of God-Anticipating the Resurrection of all.

‘What then shall we call this mystery of yours? Death? Your blessed soul is naturally parted from your blissful and undefiled body? The body is delivered to the grave, yet it does not remain in death, nor is it the prey of corruption. The body of her, whose virginity remained unspotted in child birth, was preserved in its incorruption, and was taken to a better, more divine place where there is no death, only eternal life.’ (St. John Damascene)

In Byzantine churches, the first great feast of the liturgical calendar is the Nativity of the Mother of God -Sept 8. The feast of her Holy Dormition - Aug 15, coming at the end of the Church Year, brings this cycle to a close. Our annual remembrance of the life, death, resurrection of Christ begins with the birth of His Mother, and concludes with her entry into the new life which He gives to us. What is a ‘dormition’? Our English words echo the French and Latin words for ‘sleep’. The corresponding

Greek word ‘koimisis’, appears in English as ‘cemetery’, or ‘sleeping place’. In English we refer to the feast as the Falling Asleep of the Most Holy Mother of God, ‘Uspinnia’ in Ukrainian. By calling death a ‘repose’ or a ‘falling asleep’ we are affirming our faith that death is not the ultimate reality. Mary’s is not the only dormition observed in our Church. The first saints to be commemorated were the martyrs, witnesses to Christ at the risk of their life; their death was considered as a crowning to their testimony. Some saints not martyred were remembered on the day of their peaceful death, their dormition. Thus, we remember the Dormition of St. Anne, Mother of the Theotokos - July 25, St John the Theologian, the only Apostle not martyred - Sept 26. Early tradition places Mary’s death in Jerusalem, 1 or 2 years after Jesus’ Resurrection. “…the apostles carried the couch and laid down her precious and holy body in Gethsemane in a new tomb. And, behold, a perfume of sweet savor came forth out of the holy sepulcher of our Lady, the Mother of God; and for 3days the voices of invisible angels were heard glorifying Christ our God, who had been born of her. And when the 3rd day was ended, the voices were no longer heard; and from that time forth all knew that her spotless and precious body had been transferred to paradise. Other writings speak of the Apostles except Thomas, being miraculously transported to attend the Holy Virgin at her passing. When Mary reposes, they see Christ taking her soul to heaven. When they bury her body, Christ appears again. Thomas arrives 3 days later and expresses his desire to see her body for the last time. The tomb is empty. The risen Lord, who vanquished death, has taken the body of His most pure Mother to heaven. Christ restores Mary’s soul to her body and glorifies both with Him. She enters eternal life in the fullness of her spiritual and bodily existence. The risen Christ is the first-fruits of those who have fallen asleep (1 Cor. 15; 20). To call Him ‘first-fruits’ presumes that there is more to the crop. Mary’s participation in eternal life is unique. She is not awaiting the return of her Son; she now shares in eternal life in body as well as spirit by a special grace of grace is an anticipation of our resurrection.
