Scripture

In order to help our children grow in the Orthodox Faith in North America, a decision was made to standardize all materials to the Orthodox Study Bible (DSWA Kalpana DSWA/C/016/2010, October 28, 2010). Please continue to pray and support the development of a fully approved translation based on the Peshitta, and our textbooks will educate on the various translations and historic development of Scripture.

Biblical Stories

Liturgical Resources

The Ministry of Liturgical Resource Development (LRD) was created in July of 2015 (DSWA Kalpana DSWA/C/10/2015, July 24,2015) to promote the translation, versification, and publication of vital English liturgical resources. Today most of our Sacramental offices are available and the "Service Book of the Holy Qurbono" and "Shehimo: Book of Common Prayer" are available in print. Wherever possible references will be made using LRD resources given the easy access to these materials to the faithful in North America.

Patristic Quotes

  • [St. Basil the Great] "Early in the morning, nothing ought to be planned or purposed before we have been gladdened by the thought of God."

Other Quotes

  • [Fr. Thomas Hopko] "A Christian should never be lonely! If we feel lonely it means we forget that we are members of the people of God ... that we are fellow citizens with the Saints ... that we have access to God through the Son of God Jesus, raised and glorified, by the power of the Holy Spirit that is in all of the saints of all times and of all places. And we are a member, each one of us, of that community, we are all members of Christ's body so we gather as Church"
