ROCOR-PASCHA 2023

 A GENERAL Orthodox Christian 'Easter' SHARING: FW: ROCOR-PASCHA, 2023: PASCHAL- SERMON by Metropolitan Agafangel: & a few EARLY Reports with photos, of Paschal-"Easter" Services IN A FEW OF OUR WORLD-WIDE PARISHES  

  Time:  Sun, 16 Apr 2023

Note: ROCOR stands for:  “The Russian Orthodox Church Outside Of Russia”.

And, our ROCOR,  is  NOT ANY part of Stalin’s 1943 monsterous TOTALLY UNCANONICAL creation, his enslaved graceless non-Orthodox & NON-CHRISTIAN Communist Front,  false, pretend bogus ‘Russian Church’:-fellow mass-murderer, PUTIN’S IDOL:    Joseph Stalin and his creation, his   MP..The ‘Moscow Patriarchate’-which is still a puppet  state-religious tool & a department of the Kremlin and now “Russian World” champion, war-loving Vlad Putin, & headed by ACTOR, KGB Agent dressed AND PERFORMING, as a holy Orthodox Christian patriarch, Moscow’s:  “The MOST HOLY, Patriarch Kyrill“-[Gundayev]-who BLESSES…. IN THE NAME OF ALMIGHTY GOD!!!, all of  Mad-dictator, Hitler-like,  Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin’s  UNCHRISTIAN mass & demonic merciless genocide on the Ukrainian people…& his threats to NUKE US ALL, if he doesn’t get his insane, DEMONIC world-domination way..THUS BREAKING ALL TEN COMANDMENTS Of GOD and all of the teachings of Our Blessed Lord, God, And Saviour JESUS CHRIST! And all sacred canonical -church laws of the now over 2000 years on earth,  of our: The Universal Apostolic  Orthodox Christian Church , which was founded by Our Lord Jesus Christ and spread by, firstly, His 12 Apostles.

The very last genuine and real SOLE-VALID Holy Patriarch of Russia, was Holy New Confessor & Martyr, Saint Patriarch TIKHON (Belavin) of Thrice Blessed Memory. After him, there has been NO valid Orthodox Christian  Patriarch in Russia, -starting with Stalin’s first pick, apostate Sergius Stragorodsky, followed by yet more  only Communist Party hacks, imposters  and actors, wearing clerical vestments…mumbling empty SCRIPTED words, merely READING from the Orthodox service books, and LOOKING & SOUNDING  HOLY! “so as to fool the unwary”…layers of LIES, LIES, and then MORE LIES!

The Kremlin-ordered task (since Stalin till now) of this MP Moscow centered, ’church’  - is to preach to the common Russian people, that :“GOD! Wants you to obey”- the Communist hangover regime in the Kremlin, and thus also, their current head man, “Sincere Orthodox Christian”- VLAD PUTIN, and  without questions or reservations!!! & by misquoting/miss-interpreting  St. Paul’s words, to: ”Obey those in authority, for all authority is from God”.

And a reminder: Both of these American-based church organizations, the OCA/MP-The Orthodox Church in America of the Moscow Patriarchate,  and its sister church, ROCOR/MP.”The RUSSIAN ORTHODOX CHURCH OUTSIDE OF RUSSIA-OF THE MOSCOW PATRIARCHATE”, .BOTH of them MUST BE IN the end, subservient to Moscow’s KGB AGENT  - “MP Patriarch Kyrill”, as HE, Putin’s spiritual advisor and blesser of this horrible war,  is the top clerical last word, OVER their church life. Thus, they too are lawless & uncanonical and outside of The Universal Holy Apostolic Orthodox Catholic Church, AND THEY POSSES A COUBNTERFIT/TAINTED  VERSION OF ORTHODOX CHRISTIANITY, and THEY PREACH A FALSE GOSPEL thus also, As, this Communist-controled  MP Patriarchate ‘blessed’ them with,  Moscow’s  phony graceless communist front MP ‘church’  in full reality, it was THE KREMLIN which gave them this false “Independence”,  to TRAP them under its control and influence, and The KREMLIN which gave them this fraud,  their  “autochephaly and autonomy”! (both empty mere words -meaningless and a joke).. so…HOW? can there be any GENUINE GOD’S GRACE in their sacraments or blessings? Are not thus, all of their prayers, ordinations/episcopal consecrations  and sacraments and blessings, VOID and meaningless & useless mere  rituals?-By Orthodox SACRED Canon laws, YES, for sure.

WE Easy-Going, overly trusting, comfortable & often smug,  AMERICANS, in general,  TEND TO BE SO NAIEVE! : “TRUST BUT VERIFY!” is a far  more sober and more  Orthodox Christian a mindset, in general. 

The OCA/MP & the ROCOR/MP & the other fallen-away from true Orthodoxy peoples,  are pretended servants of God, mostly over-trusting laiety, who follow wrong clerical leaders, those “wolves in sheep’s clothing” but who are in reality, duped servants of the Devil , The Prince Of This World, and his endless tricks, as we live now in our upside-down REVERSE UNIVERSE, the Age of The Coming of The Antichrist, when maximum evil is appearing-masquerading .. as if, it is maximum good. ”BE ye wise as serpents, but harmless as doves!”

Today the scriptural warning applies: “Every man is a liar!” and “Put not your trust in man, for vain is the help of man!”

SAVE US O LORD JESUS CHRIST OUR RISEN SAVIOUR,  RISEN FROM THE DEAD!  ALLELUIA!

CHRIST IS RISEN!

TRULY HE IS RISEN!..and DEATH IS NO MORE!

Retired Psalm-Reader Daniel Everiss

“As the deer pants for the living water brooks, so doth my soul pant for Thee, O Lord!”

ROCOR: PASCHA 2023 in a few of our parishes (reports: on-goingly-updated)

Author: Metropolitan Agafangel. Publication date:April 16, 2023. Category: ROCOR .

In Odessa, Ukraine, in the Archangel-Mikhailovsky parish, they served behind closed doors - a curfew from 24:00 to 5 in the morning. Before the service, 5 policemen headed by some district chief appeared and said that they forbade us to hold the service, because "it is not allowed." In Ukraine, there is now real persecution of believers, unfortunately. At 24:00 we closed the doors of the temple and served according to the Typicon. The Liturgy was officiated by Metropolitan Agafangel, co-served by Archpriest Vitaly Morozov and Priest Dionysius Pavlovsky, with Deacons Maxim Sheremet and Georgy Kucherenko.

 

In the parish in honor of Saint John the Warrior & Martyr,  in Berdyansk, Ukraine on the Sea of Azov,  (still not quite , Ukrtaine yet liberated by the Ukrainian Army),  in Ukraine, parishioners prayed on PASCHA in a layman rite, without a priest.

 

In the Odessa, Ukraine  parish in honor of the Tsarevich-Martyr Alexy, the Paschal services were celebrated by Priest Roman Rak.

 

In Kyiv, Ukraine, in the church in honor of the Great Martyr Barbara, the rector Archpriest Sergiy Smorygo conducted PASCHAL  services.

 

In the temporary house-church of the Resurrection Monastery in Chisinau (Moldavian diocese), PASCHAL services were held by Hieromonks, Fathers Glikeriy and Sofroniy.

 

PASCHAL services at the renovated from severe war damage, Intercession/Pokrov of Our Lady’s Church in the city of Malin in Ukraine were held by its rector, Archpriest Georgy Storozhytsky.
