GIVING THANKS TOGETHER.................

Nov 29, 2024

“Oh, magnify the Lord with me and let us exalt His name together. (Ps 34:3)   Following Divine Liturgy where we ‘praised the Lord together,’ Fr. Maryan and Mat. Lana hosted a wonderful pre-Thanksgiving Fest.   Good food and good fellowship abounded everywhere.   We here at St. John’s have been abundantly blessed and we give our everlasting thanks to God the Father, the Son, and to the Holy Spirit on Thanksgiving Day and every day.

Holy Apostle James the Brother of the Lord

The Holy Apostle James, the Brother of God (Adelphótheos) was the son of the Righteous Joseph before he was betrothed to the Most Holy Theotokos. Tradition says that Joseph had other sons with his first wife. Thus, James was called the Lord's brother.
