proveer de todo lo necesario para el viaje a Zenas, el perito en la Ley, y a Apolo, de modo
que nada les falte. Que aprendan también los nuestros a sobresalir en la práctica de las
buenas obras, atendiendo a las necesidades urgentes, para que no queden sin fruto. Te
saludan todos los que están conmigo. Saluda a los que nos aman en la fe. La Gracia sea
con todos ustedes.
Gospel Matthew 5:14-19
Epistle follwed by the Gospel (la lectura seguida por el Evangelio)
Epistle Titus 3:8-15
PROKIMENON (Tone 8)
-Be glad in the Lord, and rejoice, you just; exult, all you upright of heart.
- Happy are those whose faults are taken away, and whose sins are covered.
READING from the Epistle of St. Paul to Titus
My son Titus, this saying is true, and in this matter I want to insist that tose who believe in
God be careful to excel in good works; these are good and useful to people. But avoid
foolish controversies and geneallgies and quarrels, and disputes about the Law, for they are
useless and futile. Avoid a factious man after warning him one or twice, knowing that such a
man is perverted and sins, since he is condemning himself.
When I send Artemas or Tychicus to you, make every effort to meet me at Nicopolis, for I
have decided to spend the winter there. Help Zenas the lawyer and Apolos on their way,
taking care that they lack nothing. And let our people also learn to excel in good works, in
order to help cases of urgent need so that they may not be unfruitful. All my companions
greet you. Greet those who love us in the faith. The grace of God be with all of you. Amen.
ALLELUIA (Tone 4)
-O God, our ears have heard, our fathers have declared to us the deeds you did in their days,
in the days of old.
-For you saved us from those who afflicted us and have put to shame those who hated us
Carta del Apóstol San Pablo a Tito (3:8-15)
Hijo mío, Tito: Cierta es la Palabra, y quiero que en esto te mantengas firme, para que los
que creen en Dios procuren sobresalir en la práctica de las obras de bondad; éstas son las
obras buenas y provechosas para los hombres. En cambio, las discusiones necias,
genealogías, contiendas y disputas sobre la Ley, evítalas, porque son inútiles y vanas. Al
desviado en la fe, después de una y otra amonestación, rehúyelo; ya sabes que tal hombre se
ha pervertido y peca condenándose a sí mismo. Cuando te envíe a Artemas o a Tíquico,
apresúrate a venir donde mí a Nicópolis, porque he pensado pasar allí el invierno. Cuida de
The Lord said to his disciples, “You are the light of the world. A city set on a mountain
cannot be hidden. Neither do men light a lamp and put it under a bushel, but upon the
lamp-stand, so as to give light to all in the house. Even so let your light shine before men,
in order that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven. Do
not think I have come to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I have not come to destroy, but
to fulfill. For amen I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, not one letter or one
stroke shall be lost from the Law till all things have been accomplished. Therefore
whoever does away with one of these least commandments, and so teaches men, shall be
called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever carries them out and teaches them, he
shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.”
Santo Evangelio según San Mateo (5:14-19)
Dijo el Señor a sus discípulos: «Ustedes son la luz del mundo. No puede ocultarse una
ciudad situada en la cima de un monte. Ni tampoco se enciende una lámpara y la ponen
debajo del celemín, sino sobre el candelero, para que alumbre a todos los que están en la
casa. Brille así su luz delante de los hombres, para que vean sus buenas obras y
glorifiquen a su Padre que está en los cielos… No piensen que he venido a abolir la Ley y
los Profetas. No he venido a abolir, sino a dar cumplimiento. En verdad les digo, el cielo y
la tierra pasarán antes que pase una “i” o una tilde de la Ley sin que todo suceda. Por
tanto, el que transgreda uno de estos mandamientos más pequeños y así lo enseñe a los
hombres, será el más pequeño en el Reino de los cielos; en cambio, el que los observe y
los enseñe, ése será grande en el Reino de los cielos.»
The Ordination of a Priest
The ordination of a Priest takes place during the Divine Liturgy. The Liturgy is celebrated
in the usual manner. After the singing of the Holy God the Bishop blesses he people with
the two and tree branched candlesticks tree times singing:
Bishop: Lord, Lord, look down from heaven and see and bless this vineyard which your
right hand has planted.
All: Eis polla eti, Dhespota!
Clergy: Lord, have mercy (after each petition)
The actual ordination takes place after the Great Entrance. The person to be ordained is led
into the sanctuary and is presented to the Bishop. He is then led around the altar three times,
a sign that from now on his life will revolve around the altar of God. During this procession,
the choir sings the following troparia:
Deacon: For the peace from on high and for the salvation of our souls, let us pray to the
Lord.
Choir: O holy martyrs, who fought the good fight and have received your crowns, beseech
the Lord to save our souls.
Glory to You, O Christ God, the apostles' pride, the martyrs' joy who have proclaimed the
consubstantial Trinity!
Dance, O Isaiah! A virgin has conceived in her womb and has given birth to a Son,
Emmanuel, both God and man. His name is Orient: magnifying him we bless the virgin
The candidate kneels before the altar with his head touching the altar. The Bishop places the
end of his omophorion on the candidate’s head and recites the prayer of ordination
Deacon: let us be attentive!
Clergy: Lord, have mercy (three times)
All: Lord, have mercy (three times)
Bishop: The Divine Grace, which always heals, that which is infirm, and compels that which
is lacking, elevates, through the laying-on of hands, SERGIO, the most devout Deacon to be
a Priest. Wherefore, let us pray for him, that the Grace of the All-Holy Spirit may come upon
him.
Bishop: O God, who are without beginning and without end, and who exist before all
creation, you honor with the name of priest those who are judged worthy to serve the word of
your truth. O Lord of all grant that he whom you have been pleased to promote though me,
may be preserved in blameless speech, and unswerving faith and that he may receive in
abundance the grace of your Spirit. Make him perfect in obeying you in all things, according
to your good pleasure, that he may prove himself worthy of the priestly office, to which in
Your divine wisdom you have appointed him. For yours is the might and yours is the
kingdom, the power and the glory, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, now and always and forever
and ever.
All: Amen
Deacon: In peace let us pray to the Lord.
For the peace of the whole world, the stability of the holy Churches of God, and the union
of all, let us pray to the Lord.
For our Bishop Nicholas, for his priesthood for his perseverance, peace, health, and
salvation and for the works of his hands. Let us pray to the Lord.
For the servant of God Sergio, now raised to be a priest and for his salvation, let us pray to
the Lord.
That the Lord may grant him a pure and blameless priesthood, let us pray to the Lord.
For this city, every city and country, and for all the faithful who dwell in them, let us pray
to the Lord.
For our deliverance from all afflictions, wrath, danger, and necessity, let us pray to the
Lord.
Help us, save us, have mercy on us, and protect us, O God, by your grace.
Remembering the all holy, the spotless, the most highly blessed, our glorious lady, the
Theotokos and ever-virgin Mary, with all the saints, let us commend ourselves and one
another and our whole life to Christ God.
Clergy: To you, O Lord.
Bishop: O Lord God, great in power, unsearchable in wisdom and wonderful in your
condescension towards the sons of men, you have been pleased to grant to this your
servant the order of the priesthood. Fill him now with the gifts of the Holy Spirit that he
may be worthy to stand blamelessly before your holy altar, to preach the Gospel of your
kingdom, to serve the word of your truth, to present you with spiritual gifts and sacrifices,
and to renew your people by the laver of regeneration: so that, in your great goodness, he
may receive the reward of a faithful servant in his master’s house at the second coming of
your only begotten Son, our great God and Savior Jesus Christ. For worshiped and
glorified is your blessed and magnificent name, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, now and
always and forever and ever.
Clergy: Amen
The bishop now places the stole around the priest’s neck, saying:
Diácono: Para que todo este nuestro día sea perfecto, santo, tranquilo y sin pecado,
pidamos al Señor.
Bishop: Axios!
Clergy: Axios!
All: Axios!
The bishop places the zone around the priest’s waist, saying:
Bishop: Axios!
Clergy: Axios!
All: Axios!
The bishop places the phelonion over the priest’s shoulder, saying:
Bishop: Axios!
Clergy: Axios!
Deacon: For an angel of peace, a faithful guide and guardian of our souls and bodies, let us ask the
Lord.
Diácono: El perdón y la remisión de nuestros pecados y culpas, pidamos al Señor.
Deacon: For what is good and profitable to our souls and for peace in the world, let us ask the
Lord.
Diácono: Para pasar en paz y penitencia el tiempo que queda de nuestra vida, pidamos al
Señor.
Deacon: That the end of our life may be Christian, painless, unashamed and peaceful, and for a
good defense before the awesome Judgment Seat of Christ, let us ask the Lord.
Diácono: Pidamos la unión de la fe y la comunión en el Espíritu Santo, y
encomendémonos a nosotros mismos, y los unos a los otros, y nuestra vida entera a Cristo
Dios.
All: Axios!
The Divine Liturgy then continues as usual. After the Epiclesis the bishop places a particle of
the Holy Bread in the priest’s hand saying:
Bishop: Take this in rust and guard it until the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ when it will
be reclaimed by him
Preparation for Communion (preparación por la Comunión)
Deacon: Now that we have remembered all the saints, again and again in peace let us pray to the
Lord. All: Lord, have mercy.
Diácono: Por estos preciosos Dones ofrecidos y consagrados. Roguemos al Señor.
Deacon: That our God who loves mankind, having received these gifts on His holy and mystical altar
in Heaven as a sweet spiritual fragrance, may send down upon us in return His divine grace and the
gift of the Holy Spirit, let us pray.
Priest: And make us worthy, Master, to dare with confidence and without condemnation to call
You Father, O God of Heaven and to say:
All: Our Father, who art in Heaven, Hallowed be Thy name, Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be
done on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses as
we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
Todos: Padre nuestro, que estás en el cielo, santificado sea tu Nombre; venga a nosotros
tu reino; hágase tu voluntad en la tierra como en el cielo. Danos hoy nuestro pan de cada
día; perdona nuestras ofensas, como también nosotros perdonamos a los que nos ofenden;
no nos dejes caer en la tentación, y líbranos del mal.
Señor que bendices a los que te bendicen y santificas a los que ponen su
esperanza en ti,
salva a tu pueblo y bendice tu heredad; vela por la plenitud de tu Iglesia,
santifica a los que aman el esplendor de tu morada; exáltalos tú con tu divino
poder, y no nos abandones a nosotros, que ponemos en ti nuestra esperanza.
Concede la paz a este mundo tuyo, a tus Iglesias, a los sacerdotes, a nuestros
gobernantes y a todo tu pueblo; ya que todo beneficio y todo don perfecto
procede de lo alto, pues desciende de ti, oh Padre de las luces, y a ti
glorificamos, damos gracias y adoramos, Padre, Hijo y Espíritu Santo, ahora y
siempre y por los siglos de los siglos.
