HYMNS AND READINGS FOR SUNDAY, DECEMBER 9, 2018

Resurrectional Apolytikion – 3rd Tone (Green Hymnal pg. 83) Let all things above in heav'n rejoice, and let all things below on earth be glad. With all the might and strength of His arm an eter-

nal deed the Lord did perform. Beneath His feet He has trampled down death by death, and first born of the dead has He become. From the womb of Hades has He delivered us, and to all the world has granted His great redeeming mercy.

Apolytikion for Conception of the Theotokos - 4th Tone

Today the bonds of childlessness are broken. For hearing the prayers of Joachim and Anne, God promised that against all hope they would give birth to the Maiden of God. He, the Uncircumscribed, would be born of her, when He would become man, and by

the Angel's example, He commands us to call to her: "Rejoice, Maiden full of the grace, the Lord is with you."

Hymn of St. Catherine - 5th Tone We sing praises in memory of the bride of Christ, Catherine the Holy Protectress of Holy Mount Sinai, of her who is our helper and our comforter, silencing the impious ones with her brilliance. All by the power of the Spirit! And she pleads for us all great mercy,

since she has been crowned a martyr of the Lord.

Kontakion of the Nativity – 3rd Tone On this day the Virgin comes to a cave to give birth to God the Word ineffable, Who was before all the ages. Dance for joy, O earth, on hearing the gladsome tidings; with the Angels and the shepherds now glorify Him Who is willing to be gazed on as a

young Child Who before the ages is God. Epistle Reading: The reading is from St. Paul's Letter to the Galatians 4:22-27. Brethren, Abraham had two sons, one by a slave and one by a free woman. But the son of the slave was born according to the flesh, the son of the free woman through promise. Now this is an allegory: these women are two covenants. One is from Mount Sinai, bearing children for slavery; she is Hagar. Now Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia; she corresponds to the present Jerusalem, for she is in slavery with her chil-dren.

days and be healed, and not on the sabbath day." Then the Lord answered him, "You hypocrites! Does not each of you on the sabbath untie his ox or his donkey from the manger, and lead it away to water it? And ought not this woman, a daughter of Abra-ham whom Satan bound for eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the sabbath day?" As he said this, all his adversaries were put to shame; and all the people rejoiced at all the glorious things that were done by him.

Below please see the Eulogy offered for Father Jimi on Tuesday night after the Trisagion by Father Andrew Kearns May Father Jimi Foreso’s memory be eternal and may our Loving Lord be with Presbytera Eleni, Karas, Kyla and JT!

Brother, intercede with the Lord our God to grant me the strength and the Words to speak tonight before all the heavenly hosts… Brothers and Sisters, last Friday at 6:49am a Shining Beacon of God’s Joy attained to new heights … and the world shat-tered. In the days that have followed, a flood of tears, filled with Joyful Sorrow, have fallen upon the earth. Facing Fr. Jimi’s death has been agony & grief with a depth of pain there are no words to describe… But almost more than facing his death, I have dread-ed this moment, for how can one speak of the measure of this incredible man. To do so, is an awesome and fearful privilege. Commemoration Why? So that I can make it through this, forgive me, as I begin with a little theology; (It’s a safe space for me)… Why are we here tonight? Why will we be here in Vigil throughout the night and into the morning, when we will lay to rest in the earth this blessed servant of God? And why will we, his brother concelebrants, commemorate him at each liturgy over the next 40 days? For what are all these services? Brothers and Sisters, the fathers of our church teach us that our Husband, Father, Son, Brother, Uncle, Concelebrant and Friend has embarked upon a journey through the spiritual realm passing the abysses of hell and the heavenly habitations to his own individual judgment seat. As the soul and body separate, his soul does not yet know where it will remain, and we are told that change in the condition of a soul is still possible, especially brother clergy through intercession made in the Bloodless Sacrifice by all our prayers. When he reaches this Judgment Seat, Yes, of Course; he will be judged according to his personal Faith and the works it that produced. His judgment is deeply personal and no measure of anyone else’s goodness, save God’s alone, will be accounted unto him for his salvation… He will be judged by his fruit. However, know this, WE are the testimony of his fruit. Our remembrance of all that Jimi was and all that he did for us is the light that will illumine his way to our heavenly Father. Each memory shared, each prayer offered calls unto his soul another angel to walk with him through the darkness of death, and will form for him a cloud of witnesses testifying to his character… That his soul may know what we and the Lord already know… Not only was he loved, Not only is he loved, But the love he gave to us has United him inseparably with God. You will know him by his fruit…..Man of Character So, Jimi, my friend, that you may walk with confidence through death into life, being unafraid of what awaits you, let me the unworthy one remind you of your character. Your Brother, Nadeem, rightly attested that you have epitomized the pursuit “not of wealth, rank, or honor, but of personal Worth and Character.” You are a man who possesses all of the gifts of the Holy Spirit. For the gifts of the spirit are Spirit, Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Goodness, Faithfulness, Gentleness, and Self-Control. All these you possess. As your daughter, Kayla, reflected, you are full of Happiness and Love. All whom have met you felt loved, welcomed, and accepted. How many lives did you change unalterably with your smile full of Joy, Compassion, and Love untouched by judgment? To how many did you teach what it was to be a true Father, Brother, & Friend? When I met you, I was the head of the Married Student Organization and thought it my sacred duty to bring you into our seminary family. I thought Jeff and I were welcoming you into our friendship duo; that the greater collection of our magnificent seminary family was welcoming just another brother into our midst. But then you taught me… oh so quickly… that I did not even comprehend the word friend or brother. Instead, you became the epicenter of our friendship trio and the central pillar of that family. You were not satisfied to get together on occasion, to enjoy afternoon chats while the kids played outside, and perhaps share a meal or two throughout the semester. No, You became a Father to my children, a constant companion, a compassionate teacher, and a faithful guide. You showed me that a brother makes the life of the other his own; he intrudes and intrudes deeply. That a friend takes upon himself, the joys, sorrows, struggles, and triumphs of his brother. That he opens the fullness of himself to those he loves. That he drops everything to assist when trouble strikes. More than this, you adopted me as ‘your eldest son,’ that Britt, our children, and I might have a home, when we had none. To me, you are eldest brother, dearest companion, and a spiritual Father. And I imagine many in this room will attest the same. My fondest memories of you were made at this very altar. An altar where we served our common First Love, with Faith, Joy, and an overabundance of laughter, much to Fr. Lou and our presvyteras’ dismay. Your joy in serving our Lord was infectious; it was for this joyous and loving heart that Metropolitan Isaiah ordained you. While Father Jeffrey and I would wax philosophical about the love of God and how it extends beyond the bounds of the Church; you simply said, “Hold my Gatorade…” and walked among all of His children, spreading unconditional Love, on the soft-

ball field, in the schools, at the ice rink, and even the cigar shop. Who needs books and theses about God’s Love, when we have your example to guide us? Overcoming all to be perfected in Love. Yet, lest we forget, all of these virtues were not just yours by instinct. [As your cousin, Fr. Brian hinted at; Perhaps you have not always been the most patient, peaceful, self-controlled man.] For what profit is it for one to be loving, just, or good, when these are done simply by natural inclination or by virtue of a life lived without trial. No; you acquired these virtues through internal struggle, spiritual battle, and gratitude in the midst of suffering. You battled internal demons; You triumphed over despair; And you overcame every stumbling block laid in your path by the Evil One. As the first Apostle Andrew, on whose day you reposed, you responded to the Call of our Lord, leaving everything worldly: a six-figure job, esteem in your community, and a life of comfort, to be an indebted seminarian struggling to survive on the your wife’s income and a multitude of side jobs, in a world that spoke and read a language you struggled to comprehend, let alone speak. You sold all that you had and followed Christ. But your suffering did not end there, even after ordination you labored in limbo, unassigned and impoverished. How fre-quently did we look at your life and ask, “Really God, he gave up everything for you, and this is how he is repaid?” Spiritua lly, you was the best of us, yet there you struggled. And there you remained firm in your vocation. Then, as it seemed that your struggles were over, in the moment that you came home to your beloved St. Catherine Church. You were struck down in your glory, by the wiry workings of the Devil… I stood at your bedside, sure that you would die before even achieving your ultimate goal of the priesthood. But with faith in God, you labored through pain and torment, spending months learning to walk again so that you might carry the gifts around this very church and offer Thanksgiving to God on our be-half. You made it, my friend. Through force of will and firm faith in God, you entered into the great ministry of our Lord. And all seemed to be right in the world. But then again, as your Love of All was shining most brightly throughout this Metropolis and the archdiocese beyond, the Devil returned with all his hosts to make war on this most joyous of God’s servants. Oh he thought he had you. He afflicted you in your most feared wound, … he tried to steal you from our Lord by living out your greatest fear, to lose your mind in front of all your friends and all those who love you… he tormented you for 2 long years with a mind that blurred past, present, dream, and reality. Yet, he could not win, for in the words of St. Silouan, you kept your mind in hell, but despaired not. And while tormenting you, your wife, your children, your family, and us your friends, The Devil all the while failed to comprehend that he was fashioning for you the most glorious of Crowns. For brother, you sat with me this past July and told me in a moment of profound clarity, that God had empowered you to provide the most Sacred of Pastoral and Priestly blessing to your Flock and His Church, the model of one who Rejoices with firm conviction in the Love of God, despite all worldly suffering. Your Priesthood witnesses that “His Priests shall rejoice in righteousness and his saints will rejoice in Joyfulness.” Now, Jimi, your fight is over, the Devil thought he had triumphed by swallowing you in death, but as you walk through his broken kingdom, Your Martyric Crown proclaims even to those in hades that nothing separates us from the Love of God. With ci-gar and 2-liter of Mountain Dew in hand, have fun storming the Castle, Brother…. Fear not, for beyond this journey I am sure you will hear, ‘well done thou Good and Faithful servant.’ Len: Words cannot express my thanks to you for allowing him to adopt me. Your devotion to Fr. Jimi has been and will continue to be its own martyric witness for us all. Zoe si Sas! … Karas, Kayla, JT: Know always that you are loved, by a man whose love is outmatched only by our Lord’s …. Nonna: for teaching him that love, and guiding him with it, we are for-ever in your debt. … Jim/Pops: That he waited for you to give one last goodbye says more than I can; know that he will be okay… I could go through you each, but my heart will not let me, Trish, Jason, Bill, Jeannie, Mike & Jennifer, Tess & Tony, Carrie & Paul, Tyler, Miranda, Abigail, Mat-thew, Julianna, William, Lucy, Jenna, and all who called him Hubby, Dad, Son, Uncle, Brother, Second Dad, Godfa-ther, Spiritual Father and Friend, let us proclaim together, “May you memory be eternal, O Dear Brother, worthy of blessedness and everlasting memory. Receive him, O Lord in your Heavenly Care. May we live lives worthy of seeing him again with that mischie-vous smile and joyous demeanor in your Kingdom. To You is due all Glory, Honor, and Dominion, now and forever and to the ages of ages. Amen.

ST. CATHERINE PARISH COUNCIL CANDIDATES 2019-2020 ELECTION

JoAnn (Jo) Chapel: My first job when I finished college was as a Lutheran missionary in Japan. Today I design instructional courses. I have been a member of St. Catherine's since converting to Orthodoxy in about 2003, after a long and winding journey. I've been learning to sing alto in the choir for several years. Two years ago my darling Steve and I were married at St. Catherine's. Our four kids are all grown. I love St. Catherine's - I came HOME the first day I walked in! I hope that serving on the Parish Council will give me a chance to learn more about the variety of tasks the amazing people here are doing. I also want to share my unique point of view in discussions and planning for the future.

Spiros Deligiannis: I was born in Leros, Greece and came to America in 1966. My family settled in New York. That is where I met my wife Liz. We moved to Houston, Texas where I owned automotive and restaurant business-es over the course of 20 plus years. We moved to Colorado in 2007 and we have been parishioners at St. Catherine since then. I served as Facilities Man-ager at St. Catherine for 6 years and I have a great love of our church and our parish family. I feel I will be an asset to the Parish Council from the vantage point of understanding the church's facilities and maintenance needs coupled with a desire to do the right thing to insure that our church is strong for gener-ations to come.

Brian Farr: I grew up in Jackson, Mississippi and was raised in the United Methodist Church. I graduated from Baylor University and af-ter five years working for Price Waterhouse, I joined the Peace Corps and was assigned to Romania. It was there that I met my wife (and fel-low Peace Corps volunteer), Patti. Patti and I became Orthodox Chris-tians in 2008 at St. Pauls’s Greek Orthodox Church in Irvine, California. We moved to Greenwood Village in 2012 and became members of St. Catherine Greek Orthodox Church at that time. We have three children: Jacob (16), Adam (13) and Elaine (11). I am a CPA and CFA Charterholder. I have worked as Controller

and Chief Financial Officer for both private equity and real estate investment firms since 1999. I have served as Treasurer on the Parish Council for the last two years and would like to continue to contrib-ute to the well-being of our wonderful church by serving an additional term the on the Parish Council.

Jeff Holen, MD: I’ve loved Jesus and studied the Bible in faith based communi-ties since I was a young boy. I was raised Lutheran and then was active in Young-life as a leader and camp counselor while at Columbine High, CSU and CU. After college I worked for Lockheed Martin and US Cellular until I attended Medi-cal School in Chicago. My medical career as Emergency Physician has allowed me to work in underserved communities in the states of Illinois, Missouri, Colora-do, Washinton, New Mexico and Texas. Father Luke at Saint Nicholas in Grand Junction Chrismated my boys and I in 2004. The basics of the faith taught in promise keepers and community churches came to life for me as Orthodox Fa-thers unraveled Church history and the mysteries of the Faith. I was able to Pil-

grim in Greece, Italy, Ireland, Israel, Spain and Turkey to better understand these early Church Fa-thers. I’ve participate as Troop 102 boys scout committee Chairman and helped out with Altar boys since I joined Saint catherine in 2010. Father Lou married Jane and I in 2015 at Saint Catherines and the congregation has been like a family to me. I look forward to the opportunity to have wisdom drip down upon me from the members of the parish counsel. It is a beautiful community of Families that I will strive to preserve and continue to make it a better place.

Eldon L. Keller: As background, I spent my professional career of 40 years with Westinghouse Electric Corporation in both Pittsburgh and South Carolina performing nuclear-related research and a variety of program management roles, including University Relations in my final role before retiring. While in Pittsburgh, my wife Kalomera and I were members of the St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Cathedral. I served on the Parish Council in the late 1980s and early 1990s holding offices of Treasurer, Vice President, and President. My term as President was shortened when Westinghouse moved my job from Pittsburgh to South Carolina.

After 25 years in South Carolina, we moved to the Denver area to be closer to our son Chris Keller and his family Amy and Katie. Arriving on June 20, 2018, we moved into The Inn at Greenwood Village, a one-minute walk from St. Catherine, where we joined as stewards. Unfortunately, my wife passed away on July 19, 2018. I would love to devote my time and relevant experience to work with the Parish Council to sup-port the wonderful St. Catherine Church community, for which I am grateful.

Louis Sokach: I have been a member of St. Catherine for 20 years, serving as an acolyte and volunteering in the bookstore. I am cur-rently seeking a second term on the Parish Council and have served pre-viously in 2001-2002. I am currently involved in the Parish Council’s Safety and Security Com-mittee, as we look into improving the security awareness and emergency preparedness of our parish.

Andy Stathopulos: I started attending St. Catherine in 1984, the year our parish started and the year my wife, Toula and I were married. Our 4 children, Evan, Alexandra, Eleni & Panteli were baptized and raised in our parish. I have been honored to serve in many capacities on behalf of our parish over the years, including as President, as an of-ficer and as a member of the Parish Council; as a High School Sunday School teacher; as a founder of, and a participant in our Men’s Group at St. Catherine; and as legal counsel for the parish. As President of the Parish Council, I laid the cornerstone of our house of worship when we completed the initial construction of the church. As a member of the Par-ish Council, I was blessed to serve alongside my father, Angelo Stathopulos who, earlier in his lifetime, served for 10 years as Parish Council President for the Assumption Greek Orthodox Cathedral where

he purchased and broke ground for the church on Alameda Street in Denver, Colorado. Along with many others, I helped Fr. Evan Armatas, and the faithful in the Ft. Collins, Colorado area initially organ-ize St. Spyridon, then later purchase a church property and lately, purchase a larger church property and build their new sanctuary. I have tried to dedicate my life to serving God and those whom I meet, regardless of their faith, background or lot in life. I’ve found the Orthodox Church to be not only a pow-erful way to serve, but also one of the greatest sources of personal support and spiritual nourishment. In thankfulness to God and the many, many friends and family at St. Catherine, I seek to use what tal-ents I have received in the best manner I can, seeking all glory to Him.

George Strompolos: I am originally from Chicago and have lived in Denver Colorado most of my life. My wife Elaine and I have five chil-dren. Evyan, George Evan,Annastasia, Agatha and Gregory. We also have five grandchildren. I was in the restaurant business and my wife Elaine,is a former high school art teacher. I want to be on the board so I can serve God and our community.
