Psalm 133:

Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!

² It is like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, even Aaron's beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments;

³ As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion:

 for there the Lordcommanded the blessing, even life for evermore.

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, Now and Ever and unto the Ages of Ages AMEN!

Ἐγκαίνια Μητροπολιτικοῦ Ναοῦ στὴν Ρουμανία 

Τὴν Κυριακή, 23-9/6-10-2019, τελέσθηκαν στὴν Σλατιοάρα Ρουμανίας τὰ Ἐγκαίνια τοῦ μεγαλοπρεποῦς Μητροπολιτικοῦ Ναοῦ πρὸς τιμὴν τῆς Καθόδου τοῦ Ἁγίου Πνεύματος (Πεντηκοστῆς), ὁ ὁποῖος ἀνεγειρόταν ἐπὶ μία 20ετία, εὑρισκόμενος μόλις ἐκτὸς τοῦ περιβόλου τῆς Ἱερᾶς Ἀνδρώας Μονῆς Μεταμορφώσεως τοῦ Σωτῆρος, ἕδρας τῆς Γνησίας Ὀρθοδόξου Ἐκκλησίας τῆς Ρουμανίας.

Γιὰ τὴν ὁλοκλήρωση τοῦ ὄντως μεγαλειώδους αὐτοῦ μνημείου τῆς εὐλαβείας τῶν Ρουμάνων Ἀδελφῶν τοῦ Πατρίου Ἡμερολογίου ἀπαιτήθηκαν ἀμέτρητες θυσίες σὲ ἐργασίες καὶ χρήματα, μὲ ὑποδειγματικὴ συμμετοχὴ τόσο τοῦ πολυπληθοῦς Κλήρου καὶ Λαοῦ τῆς χώρας, ὅσο καὶ πολλῶν δωρητῶν ἀπὸ διάφορα μέρη τοῦ κόσμου.

ὉΝαός, κτισμένος κατὰ τὸν παραδοσιακὸ ρουμανικὸ ἀρχιτεκτονικὸ τύπο, ἁγιογραφήθηκε πλήρως ἐσωτερικά, σύμφωνα μὲ τὴν ἐπικρατοῦσα τοπικὴ παράδοση, πρὶν ἀπὸ τὴν ἐπιτέλεση τῶν Ἐγκαινίων του.

Γιὰ τὸ ἱστορικὸ γεγονὸς συγκεντρώθηκαν Ἀρχιερεῖς, Κληρικοὶ καὶ ἀμέτρητο πλῆθος πιστῶν, παρὰ τὶς ὄχι καλὲς καιρικὲς συνθῆκες, ἀφοῦ ἐπικρατοῦσε κρύο, βροχὴ καὶ ὑγρασία.

Ἀπὸ τὸ ἀπόγευμα τῆς παραμονῆς μετεφέρθη τὸ ἱερὸ Λείψανο τοῦ Ἁγίου Ἱεράρχου Γλυκερίου στὸν χῶρο τοῦ διαμορφωμένου πρόχειρου Παρεκκλησίου, δίπλα στὸν Μητροπολιτικὸ Ναό, ὅπου θὰ ἐτελοῦντο ἡ Ἀκολουθία τοῦ Ἑσπερινοῦ καὶ Ὄρθρου, καὶ ἐπίσης ἡ Θεία Λειτουργία τὴν κύρια ἡμέρα, μετὰ τὰ Ἐγκαίνια τοῦ νέου Ναοῦ, σύμφωνα καὶ πάλι μὲ τὴν τοπικὴ παράδοση, διότι μετὰ τὴν ὁλοκλήρωση τῆς τελετῆς τῶν Ἐγκαινίων εἰσέρχονται στὸ Ἱερὸ Βῆμα ἅπαντες οἱ παρόντες πιστοί, ἀνεξαρτήτως φύλου καὶ ἡλικίας, μόνον γιὰ τὴν ἡμέρα ἐκείνη, προκειμένου νὰ προσκυνήσουν τὰ τέσσερα ἄκρα τῆς καθιερωθείσης Ἁγίας Τραπέζης.

Τῶν ἱερῶν Ἀκολουθιῶν προέστη ὁ Μακαριώτατος Μητροπολίτης Σλατιοάρας κ. Βλάσιος, Ἀρχιεπίσκοπος καὶ Πρωθιεράρχης τῆς Ρουμανικῆς Ἱεραρχίας τοῦ Πατρίου Ἡμερολογίου, καὶ ἔλαβαν μέρος καὶ οἱ λοιποὶ Ρουμᾶνοι Ἀρχιερεῖς, ἤτοι οἱ Θεοφ. Ἐπίσκοποι Μπρασὼφ κ. Θεοδόσιος, Σουτσάβας κ. Σωφρόνιος, Ἰασίου κ. Γλυκέριος, Μποτοσανίου κ. Ἰωσήφ, Ἰλφὼβ κ. Φλαβιανός, Πλοεστίου κ. Ἀντώνιος, Γαλατσίου κ. Διονύσιος καὶ Σιμπιοὺ κ. Εὐλόγιος. Ὁ γηραιὸς (92 ἐτῶν) Θεοφ. Ἐπίσκοπος Νεὰμτς κ. Δημοσθένης, ὁ ὁποῖος ηὔχετο νὰ «προλάβει» ἐν ζωῇ τὰ Ἐγκαίνια τοῦ Ναοῦ καὶ ὁ Κύριος τὸν εἰσήκουσε, παρέστη συμπροσευχόμενος ἐν ἱερᾷ συγκινήσει. Ἀκόμη, συμμετεῖχε ὁ Πρωθιεράρχης τῆς Ρωσικῆς Ἐκκλησίας Διασπορᾶς Πανιερώτατος Μητροπολίτης κ. Ἀγαθάγγελος, μὲ τὸν Σεβ. Ἀρχιεπίσκοπο Κισινὲφ καὶ Μολδόβας κ. Γεώργιο καὶ τὸν Θεοφ. Ἐπίσκοπο Βεσσαραβίας κ. Ἄνθιμο. Ἡ Ἐκκλησίας μας τῶν Γνησίων Ὀρθοδόξων Χριστιανῶν Ἑλλάδος ἀντιπροσωπεύθηκε ἀπὸ τοὺς Σεβ. Μητροπολῖτες Πειραιῶς & Σαλαμῖνος κ. Γερόντιο, Ἀττικῆς & Βοιωτίας κ. Χρυσόστομο καὶ Δημητριάδος κ. Φώτιο, τὸν Θεοφ. Ἐπίσκοπο Μεθώνης κ. Ἀμβρόσιο καὶ τὸν Σεβ. Ἐπίσκοπο Ἔτνα & Πόρτλαντ κ. Αὐξέντιο. Σημειωτέον, ὅτι ἐπρόκειτο νὰ λάβει μέρος καὶ ὁ Μακαριώτατος Ἀρχιεπίσκοπος Ἀθηνῶν καὶ πάσης Ἑλλάδος κ. Καλλίνικος, ἀλλὰ τελικὰ δὲν συμμετεῖχε γιὰ λόγους ὑγείας. Ἀπὸ δὲ τὴν Βουλγαρία ὡς ἀντιπρόσωπος τοῦ Σεβ. Μητροπολίτου Τριάδιτζα κ. Φωτίου παρέστη ὁ Θεοφ. Ἐπίσκοπος Νικοπόλεως κ. Βίκτωρας.

Ἐπίσης, παρέστησαν 50 περίπου Ἱερεῖς καὶ 10 Διάκονοι καὶ ἔψαλε πανηγυρικὰ ὁ Μητροπολιτικὸς Χορός, παρισταμένων χιλιάδων πιστοῦ λαοῦ ἐν εὐλαβείᾳ καὶ κατανύξει. 

Τὸ ἀπόγευμα τῆς παραμονῆς τελέσθηκαν οἱ Ἀκολουθίες τοῦ Ἑσπερινοῦ καὶ τοῦ Ὄρθρου ἕως ἀργὰ τὸ βράδυ, προεξάρχοντος τοῦ Μακαριωτάτου κ. Βλασίου καὶ συγχοροστατούντων τῶν λοιπῶν προαναφερθέντων 18 Ἀρχιερέων.

Τὸ πρωὶ τῆς Κυριακῆς, στὶς 6, ἄρχισε ἡ Ἀκολουθία τῶν ἱερῶν Ἐγκαινίων ἐντὸς τοῦ Μητροπολιτικοῦ Ναοῦ, ἡ ὁποία τελέσθηκε μεγαλοπρεπῶς, προεξάρχοντος τοῦ Μακαριωτάτου κ. Βλασίου καὶ μὲ συμμετοχὴ καὶ τῶν λοιπῶν Ἀρχιερέων, σύμφωνα μὲ τὴν ὅλη Τυπικὴ διάταξη.

Συναπτῶς τελέσθηκαν οἱ Ἀκολουθίες τῶν Χαιρετισμῶν τοῦ Κυρίου, τῶν Ὠρῶν καὶ ἐν συνεχείᾳ ἡ Θεία Λειτουργία στὸ παρακείμενο πρόχειρο ἱερὸ Παρεκκλήσιο, τῶν χιλιάδων τοῦ πιστοῦ λαοῦ παρισταμένων στὸν ὑπαίθριο χῶρο ὑπὸ βροχὴν καὶ κρύο μὲ μεγάλη ὑπομονὴ καὶ εὐλάβεια ἕως ἀργὰ τὸ μεσημέρι. Ἀκολούθως, προσφέρθηκε πλούσιο γεῦμα στὴν Μοναστηριακὴ τράπεζα.

Τὸ ὑπόλοιπο τῆς Κυριακῆς καὶ τὴν Δευτέρα, οἱ Ἀρχιερεῖς τῆς Ἱερᾶς Συνόδου μας φιλοξενήθηκαν στὴν Ἱερὰ Μονὴ Ἁγίου Ἱεράρχου Γλυκερίου πλησίον τῆς Μονῆς τῆς Σλατιοάρας, ὑπὸ τοῦ Θεοφ. Ἐπισκόπου κ. Σωφρονίου, ὁ ὁποῖος τοὺς συνόδευσε σὲ προσκυνήματα σὲ Ναοὺς τῆς περιοχῆς, ὅπως καὶ στὴν Ἱερὰ Μονὴ Ἁγίου Μηνᾶ στὸ Ροσιόρι, ὑπὸ τὸν Ἀρχιμ. π. Βαρνάβα.

Τὴν δὲ Τρίτη, 25-9/8-10-2019, πρὸ τῆς πτήσεως στὴν Ἑλλάδα, οἱ εὑρεθέντες στὸ Βουκουρέστι Ἀρχιερεῖς μας μετέβησαν στὴν Ἱερὰ Γυναικεία Μονὴ Εὐαγγελισμοῦ τῆς Θεοτόκου στὴν Βάλεα Ρόσι, ὑπὸ τὴν Γερόντισσα Θεοδοσία, ὅπως καὶ στὴν Ἱερὰ Ἀνδρώα Μονὴ Κοιμήσεως τῆς Θεοτόκου στὸ Βουκουρέστι ὑπὸ τὸν Θεοφ. Ἐπίσκοπο κ. Φλαβιανό, γενόμενοι παντοῦ δεκτοὶ μετὰ ἐγκαρδίου ἀδελφικῆς φιλοφροσύνης.

On October 6, a significant event took place in the life of the Romanian Orthodox Old-Calendar Church - the full rite of consecration of the main cathedral and its altar, of this Church - in honor of the Holy Spirit.  Собор начал строиться в Слатиоаре в начале 90-х годов прошлого века, и только сейчас строительство и отделка полностью завершены. The cathedral began to be built in Slatioara in the early 90s of the last century, and only now the construction and decoration have been  fully completed. Храм расписан мастерами из Молдовы и Украины в академическом стиле. The temple is painted by craftsmen from Moldova and Ukraine in an 'academic style'. Это событие стало возможным благодаря инициативе и трудам Предстоятеля Румынской Церкви митрополита Власия. This event was made possible thanks to the initiative and work of the Primate of the Romanian Church, Metropolitan Blasius (Blaise). На освящении собора молились 19 архиереев - 10 из Румынии, 5 из ИПЦ Греции (митрополиты Геронтий, Хризостом, Фотий, архиепископ Авксентий, епископ Амросий), 3 представителей РПЦЗ (митрополит Агафангел, архиепископ Георгий и епископ Анфим) и один архиерей из Болгарской ИПЦ (епископ Виктор). At the consecration of the cathedral, 19 bishops prayed - 10 from Romania, 5 from the Greek Orthodox Church (Metropolitan Gerontius, Chrysostomus, Photius, Archbishop Auxentius, Bishop Ambrose), 3 representatives of the ROCA (Metropolitan Agafangel, Archbishop George and Bishop Anfim) and one bishop of Bulgaria, Vicar Bishop Victor of Nikopolis- representing Met. Fotios, head of the Bulgarian Church.. Преставители Болгарской Истинно-Православной Церкви: диакон Пантелеимон, иеромонах Серафим, еписоп Виктор, и представители РПЦЗ: архиепископ Георгий, митрополит Агафангел и епископ Анфим.   (from left to right): Representatives of the Bulgarian True Orthodox Church: Deacon Panteleimon, Hieromonk Seraphim, Bishop Victor, and representatives of the ROCA: Archbishop George, Metropolitan Agafangel and Bishop Anfim. Предстоятель Румынской Старостильной Церкви митрополит Власий. Primate of the Romanian Old-Calendar Orthodox  Church, Metropolitan Vlasius-(Blaise). Служба была возле нового храма в специально построенном временном алтаре, в монастырском дворе. The service was near the new church around a specially constructed temporary altar, in the monastery courtyard. На полиелей вышли 18 архиереев. 18 bishops attended  the singing of The Polyelie (The  joyful many-mercies/oil  psalm). На следующий день, в воскресенье, все собрались в новом храме, был крестный ход со Св. Мощами.The next day, on Sunday, everyone gathered in the new church, there was a procession with the Holy Relics. После чего приступили к освящению Престола. Then they proceeded to the consecration of The Throne (the cathedral's altar table). Св. Мощи были помещены в специальное углубление посредине Престола, засыпаны мрамрной крошкой и залиты воскомастиком. The Holy Relics were placed in a special depression in the middle of The Throne, covered with marble chips and flooded with melted bees-wax. Также мраморной крошкой засыпали углубление в Престоле под крышкой Престола. Also, the marble recess was filled, in the altar-table under the cover of the top marble-covering slab. Всё это также залито воскомастиком. All this was also flooded with melted bees-wax. Затем Престол накрыт толстой мраморной плитой и эта плита тщательно вымыта и вытерта полотенцами. Then the Throne (altar table) was covered with a thick top-finishing marble slab and this slab was thoroughly washed and smeared  with holy oils and then wiped off with towels. Затем плита окроплена радостамой (розовой водой). Then the top covering marble slab  was sprinkled,  joyfully with (Rose-water). После этого плита помазана Св. Миром. After that, the top  marble slab  was anointed with the Holy CHRISM. Св. Миро архиереи руками равномерно распространили по всей плите. The Holy Chrism, the bishops spread evenly throughout ,all over the covering altar marble slab,  with their bare hands. По углам плиты наклеили воскомастиком изображения Евангелистов. To the top surface of the four corners of the altar's covering marble slab, were glued with hot bees-wax,  iconic  images of the  Four Evangelists. Наложили на плиту тонкую пелену из ткани. Then the bishops placed a thin sheet of cloth, on the top surface of the altar table. Поверх пелены одели срачицу, стянули её под плитой шнурком и запечатлели узел шнурка восковой песатью. On top of this shroud cloth covering, they placed and fitted tight- the cloth covering, and they pulled it down tight from its edges, under the top overhanging edges of the altar table, and they made it secure with hand-tied string-lace, and imprinted the lace tied knots with ahot bees-wax binding seals.. Поверх срачицы одели на Престол облачение. Over the first cloth covering, they then dressed the throne with its  vestments. Облачение покрыли покровом. The protective altar vestment was then covered. И поставили на Престол Дароносицу, Семисвечник, Евангелие и Крест. And they placed on the Throne,  the Reserved-Sacrament Holy Tabernacle, the Menorah (7 branch candelabra-as was in Solomon's Jerusalem Temple),  the Gospel  Book and the Blessing Cross....and an extra Holy Gospel book. Behind the altar was placed the cut-out wooden, painted) large processional crucifix and the two lamenters, the Virgin Mary and St. John the Beloved, on either side of the crucifix. In the different local national Orthodox churches, their specific holy objects on top of ..or behind...their altar-tables, differ to some degree, by local customs...or as they can afford to purchase and use. Poor parishes often have less on their altars, by necessity. *Also: the bishops  consecrated  WITH HOLY CHRISM, many new Holy Antimencis-Saint's Relic bearing altar sanctified cloths, (depicting Christ' Burial- His Shroud/Epitafios/Plaschanitza,) -no doubt for new church altars...and/or to be used to replace old worn-out ones. In the Orthodox Church, Divine Liturgy can only be served, by an ordained priest, ON a consecrated saints' relics embedded, cloth ANTIMENCIS - signed by the bishop whose priest is placed there, BY HIS BISHOP, to serve THAT altar, by him. Every Orthodox priest/presbyter  is but an extension of his bishop's/episcope's  apostolic authority. He can do nothing without his canonical bishop's knowledge or blessing. And priests are ordained FOR...or..TO  THAT ALTAR.  In a sense, they are wedded/married to that altar/throne. For a priest to travel around, as in a missionary journey, he needs his bishop's permission to do so, and then he carries with him, a consecrated  antimencis cloth. All Divine Liturgies are always performed ON TOP OF SAINT's RELICS, as was done in the Early Catacomb Church- when Liturgy was usually  performed on top of the tombs of saints....i.e. on their sacred bones. The antimencis relic-bearing cloth, is a continuation of that early tradition. However, also- under and in, a fully consecrated altar, saints relics are also incorporated.
