Dear parishioners, on Saturday we will celebrate the Patron feast day of saint martyr Paraskeva- Petka.

So please rotate and allow other people who are waiting outside to come in and light candle and say a prayer. Sandy we also have to inform you that this year because of the restrictions launch will not be served in the Church hall. God through the intercessions of our Patron saint Paraskeva-Petka may deliver us from this unpleasant situation and introduce to us again peaceful and normal everyday life.

Liturgy will start at 8.30 am and because this is also our Macedonian national feast day, afterwards Memorial Service will be served for all our Macedonian heroes who gave their lives for freedom of our motherland Republic of Macedonia. Reminder that restrictions are still in place and we all need to stay safe from Covid 19 virus, so no more than 50 believes are allowed in Church at one time. So we ask everyone to come in Church pray for few minutes and move on to free room for anyone waiting outside. Candles can be light outside as well. All faithful mid age and older are encouraged to have mask if thats possible to be additionally protected. Happy feast day of st Elijah and happy name day to all those who bear that name.

19.01.2022 Think F.A.S.T! In Australia, a stroke occurs every 9 minutes. Its National Stroke Week this week so Australians are being encouraged to learn the F.A.S.T signs... of a stroke (Face, Arms, Speech, Time) so they can get help quickly by calling 000. Around 56,000 Australians are affected by strokes, every single year. Its one of Australias biggest killers and causes of disability. The sooner a person gets help, the better the outcome. So remember, act F.A.S.T and help save a persons life.

15.01.2022 R U OK Day is Thursday 10 September 2020. It’s our national day of action when we remind #Australians, including #Macedonian Australians, that every day is the day to ask, Are you OK? if someone in your world is struggling with life’s ups and downs. If you feel like something’s not quite the same with someone you know there’s something going on in their life or you notice a change in what they’re saying or doing - trust that gut instinct and take the time to ask them Are... you OK? If someone says they’re not OK, make time to listen, encourage action and check in. That conversation could change, or even save, their life. We encourage all members of the Macedonian Australian and broader multicultural community to reach out and to check-in with each other...a conversation could change a life.

14.01.2022 COMMEMORATING ILINDEN AND THE MACEDONIAN STRUGGLE FOR INDEPENDENCE On 2 August 1903, St. Ilijas Day, the Macedonian struggle for independence manifested itself with the epic Ilinden Uprising (or in Macedonian). The quest for freedom from the Ottoman yoke of oppression resulted in an armed Macedonian resistance campaign that was initiated, coordinated and implemented by Macedonians fighting for their fundamental human rights to self-determination and fo...r a free and independent Macedonia for the Macedonian people. Even though the Ilinden Uprising failed to achieve independence for Macedonia and the Macedonian people, the short-lived Krushevo Republic was proclaimed and Macedonians enjoyed a system of self-government for a mere 10 days. Today, on the 117th Anniversary of the Ilinden Uprising, ethnic Macedonians world-wide honour and celebrate our Macedonian forefathers who bravely fought and died defending our fatherland, Macedonia, and the Macedonian people. Goce Delchev, Dame Gruev, Jane Sandanski and our Ilinden heroes were Macedonians who fought for an independent Macedonia and freedom for the Macedonian people. Their memory must never been forgotten. As Macedonian Australians, it is imperative that we always remember and honour the ultimate sacrifice made by these brave souls who valiantly gave their lives for the Macedonian cause and in the protection of fundamental human rights. Further, Macedonians in New South Wales will never co-celebrate our glorious Macedonian heroes and historical events with any Balkan neighbours under the guise of a shared history, and through so-called revised and filtered historical narratives imposed upon the Republic of Macedonia by friendship agreements. These agreements ultimately undermine and disrespect the Macedonian identity and historical continuum from antiquity to the present. Our ethnic Macedonian identity and national consciousness; our Macedonian literary language; our collective Macedonian traditions, customs, folklore and our ancient Macedonian history are the most important and tangible elements that unite us. They represent our common Macedonian past and will shape our shared future, where ever we may be throughout the diaspora. On behalf of Macedonian Australians in NSW, we would like to congratulate our community, our partner organisations, friends and supporters on this important national and religious day. We strongly encourage all members of the community to attend Ilinden celebrations in your local area across NSW. ... !
14.01.2022 29 years ago today, on 8 September 1991, the Macedonian struggle for independence and statehood culminated in the declaration of independence of the Republic of Macedonia from the yolk of foreign rule. The Macedonian people united in their call for freedom and for an independent national state under the motto of Macedonia for the Macedonians. The struggle of the Macedonian people for an independent and united Macedonia continues today, even in such turbulent and difficult ...political times. Macedonian Australians reject all negations of Macedonia and the Macedonian national identity, name, history and culture. Even in these difficult times, we will continue to advocate for the basic human rights of Macedonians and to develop our community in NSW. Long live Macedonia and the Macedonian people. . !

12.01.2022 Воздвижение на Чесниот Крст, Отец Александар Шмеман Со векови на денот на Воздвижението, односно Воздигнуваето на Чесниот Крст, архиереите, стоеи среде цркв...ата, окружени од мноштвото свештеници, го издигале Крстот високо над главите на соборот на верни, додека хорот во тоа време громогласно пеел Господи, помилу! Тоа бил празникот на христианското царство, кое се родило под закрилата на Крстот, во денот кога царот Константин го видел Крстот над ко пишувало:: Со ова е победиш Тоа е благден на победата на христианството над царствата, културите и цивилизациите, свет ден на оно христиански свет ко се распаднал, се распаа пред нашите очи. Да, и оваа година, како и секоа, е се изврши ово торжествен древен обред. И хорот радосно е пее: Крстот е сила на царевите, крстот е убавина на вселената. Но околу храмот во ко служиме е трешти огромниот град, ко е рамнодушен кон денот ко се празнува, градот ко нема апсолутно никаква врска со славата што се слави. Милионите луе е продолжат да си го живеат своот секодневен живот, со неговите грижи, интереси, радости, таги, немаи никаков однос со она што се извршува во храмовите. Зошто се осмелуваме да ги повторуваме овие зборови на победата, повторуваи ги пак и пак за Крстот, дека то е неуништлива победа? За жал, треба да се признае дека многу Христиани не би знаеле да одговорат на овие прашаа. Повеето Христиани како да се навикнале на тоа, Црквата да биде изгонета на маргините на животот, да биде протерана од културата, од животот, од училиштата од секаде. Многу Христиани се задоволни со тоа што со презир им е дозволено да ги исполнат своите обреди, под услов да се однесуваат тивко и послушно, да не му пречат на светот да го гради своот живот обезбожен, обесхристовен, обезверен, обезмолитвен. Ваквите изморени Христиани, вее и не се сеаваат што рекол Христос нота пред Распетието: Во светот е имате жалости, но не плашете се, зашто ас го победив светот. Но, ми се чини, нашето славее на Воздвижението на Крстот, повторуваето на древните зборови на победата и торжеството, сето тоа не е за само да си спомнеме за победата во минатото, да си спомнеме за тоа што било и што повее не е. А за тоа, би требало подлабоко да се водлабочиме околу смисолот ко ово збор зборот победа го има во христианската вера. Можеби, само денес, кога сме лишени од надворешната сила, надворешната победа, подршка од власта, неброни богатства, лишени од с она што се чинело символ, знак на победа, ние сме способни да сфатиме дека, можеби, се тоа и не била вистинска победа. Да, со злато, сребро и скапоцени камеа бил украсен оно Крст ко преку рацете на свештениците се издигал над човечката толпа, но ниту златото, ниту среброто, а ниту скапоцените камеа не се способни да го затемнат вистинскиот и првичен смисол на Крстот: орудие за страшна и мачна казна, на кое со клинци бил закован осуденикот, ко умирал задишан од бол и жед, биваи отфрлен од сите. Да собереме храброст, и да се запрашаме: Зар не згаснале поради тоа сите тие христиански царства и култури, зар не се превртела во пораз победата, токму поради тоа што ние, Христианите, сме станале глуви и слепи за краниот смисол, краната содржина на Крстот како главен символ на Христианството, што помисливме дека со злато и сребро може да го потиснеме суштинскиот смисол на Крстот, што помисливме дека она што Бог го бара од нас е просто славее на минатото? Но да се почитува Крстот, да се подигне, да се пее за Христовата победа на благденот на Воздвижуваето на Чесниот Крст, значи, пред с, да се верува во Распнатиот Христос, да се верува во тоа дека крсниот знак е знак на еден сепотресен, и истовремено, сеединствен пораз, ко само во силата на ово пораз, само во мерата во коа го примаме како пораз станува победа и торжество. Не, Христос не доде во светот за да донесе некаква надворешна победа: Нему при рака Му беше сета сила на Царството Божо, но То се одрече од неа. Во моментот на Неговото предавае на смрт, То рече: Зар мислите дека ас не можам да измолам од Моот Отец да ми испрати легиони на ангели, кои би ме заштитиле? (Мт. 26,53). Но никогаш Христос не беше повее Цар отколку тогаш, кога биваи окружен со злобната и занишана толпа коа Го хулеше се искачуваше кон Голгота, носеи го на грбот Крстот Сво. Никогаш не беше толку очигледна Неговата царственост и царска сила, како во оно час, кога Пилат Го изведе пред толпата, облечен во багреница, осуден на срамна смрт како престапник, со трнов венец на главата, кога Пилат рекол на збеснатата толпа и’ рече: Еве ви Го Царот ваш! Бидеи, каде се наоа сецелата тана на Христианството, а со тоа и неговата победа, ако не во радосната вера дека преку отфрлениот, распнатиот и осудениот Христос, во светот засветли убовта, се откри Царството Божо над кое нико и ништо од светот нема власт? С што треба да направиме, е да Го прифатиме Христа со сето наше срце, со сета наша вера, и со сета наша надеж. Ако го нема ова, секоа наша надворешна победа останува сосем бессмислена. И можеби то надворешен пораз на христианскиот свет, тоа осиромашувае и отфрлае, на неко начин ни биле и неопходни, за да се очисти нашата вера од секоа земна надменост, од надежта на надворешната сила, на надворешната победа. За да се очисти нашето видувае на Крстот Христов, ко се вознесува над нас и над светот, дури и кога ние и светот не го гледаме. Се крева и победува Крстот Христов, без разлика на с. Крстот е убавина на вселената. И во каква и темнина да се наоа човекот, колку и навидум во светот да торжествува злото надворешно, срцето на христианинот го познава и слуша гласот Христов ко говори: Не боте се, оти го победив светот!.

06.01.2022 16 Nedela po Pedesetnica i praznik Vozdizenie na Cesniot Krst- Krstovden. Vo denesnoto Evangelskoto cetivo, slushavme za parabolata za Gospodarot i talantite ko...i im gi podelil na slugite. Ovie talanti se darovite i talentite koi sekoj od nas gi dobiva od Boga, a nie treba preku dobrodetelen zivot da gi umnozuvame odnosno preku niv, da specalime i drugi darovi. Togas ke sme kako slugite koj gi umozile talantite i vlegle vo radosta na Gospodarot. Onoj koj go zakopal talantot i go vratil neumnozen na Gospodarot, prilega na covek koj ne gi umnozuva Bozjite darovi i ne zivee dobrodetelen zivot. Zatoa, umnozuvajte gi darovite i talentite, pecalete novi darovi i talanti preku Vera i dobrodetelen zivot, za da mozeme i nie da bideme pokaneti i da vlezeme vo radosta na nasiot bog. Da bideme blagodarni na Boga za ona sto go imame i toa da go umnozuvame, a ne postojano da go obvinuvame Boga za ona sto go nemame. Denes isto taka bese proslaven i spomenot na Vozdvizenieto na cesniot i zivotvoren krst. Ovoj praznik vklucuva dva crkovno-istoriski sobitija od zivotot na crkvata. Prviot, pronaoganjeto na cesniot krst od strana na caricata Elena. Po prethodni informacii od nekoj Evrein caricata Elena go razruzusila neznabozeckiot hram na Venera, i vo zemjata nasle zakopani 3 krsta. Pokraj mestoto pominuvala povorka so mrtovec, pa patrijarhot Makarij, gi soprel i eden po eden od trite krsta gi polozuval vrz mrtovecot. Od prvite dva krsta nisto ne se slucuvalo bidejki bile tie na razbojnicite no koga go polozile tretiot krst na Gospod Isus Hristos, se slucilo cudo i mrtviot voskresnal. Taka se utvrdilo deka toj e zivotvorniot krst Gospodov. Vtoriot nastan e prenosot na Krstot od Persija vo Erusalim. Za vreme na zazemanjeto na Erusalim carot Hozroj go odnel krstot vo Persija. Posle 14 godini carot Iraklij go vratil torzestveno krstot vo Erusalim. Koga sakal da go vnese vo gradskite porti angel Bozji ne mu dozvoluval a patrijarhot Zaharij mu go otkril toa. Potoa carot ja slekol carskata obleka, i vo obicni alista, podobno ba Hrista go vnesol torzestveno Cesniot krst vo Erusalim. Slovoto za krstot e bezumstvo za onie koi ginat, no za nas koi se spasuvame e SILA BOZJA. So silata na Zivotvorniot Krst Gospodi Isuse Hriste spasi i pomiluj 16 Sunday after Pentecost and feast day of Exaltation of the Holy Cross. Today's Gospel reading describes a parable about the Lord and the talants that he gave to his servants. Two of the slaves multiplied the talants given to them and were awarded by the Lord to enter in His happiness. One of them did not multiply and returned just one talant. People are God's creations with unique gifts and talents and we are supposed through them to earn more gifts and talents, to multiply them through good and pious christian life, filled with good deeds and virtues. If we do opposite, we look like the servant who was punished by His Lord being not obedient and faithful not multiplying the given talant. That's why we always should multiply our gift and talants given to us by God, and earn more talants and gifts through proper pious christian life, filled with virtues and faith. If we do so, we will be invited and will be rewarded with entrance into the happiness of our Lord, into His Kingdom of Heaven. Let's always be joyful and satisfied with what we have, rather than being always desperate after what we are missing. Let's always multiple the good that we have as gift from God. Today we also celebrated the feast of Exaltation of the Holy and life giving Cross. Two historical and Church events were commemorated on today's feast. First event is connected with saint Helen. She tried and found information about the Holy Cross from one Jewish man. Then she ordered and destroyed temple dedicated to Venera, and bellow the building in the ground she found 3 crosses. In order to find out witch one was the Christ's one, Patriarch Makarij ordered to stop one funeral procession. All three crosses were put on that dead man. Only when the third cross was put on the dead man, people were amazed seeing a miracle and seeing that man appeared to be alive and Risen from the dead. The second event is connected with the king Hozroj who taking over Jerusalem took also the Holy cross and transferred to Persia. King Irakli 14 years later win over kind Hozroj and the Holy cross was returned to Jerusalem. When the king Irakli, reached Jerusalem he was not able to enter into Jerusalem because he was dressed as a king, and angel of God was preventing to do si. Receiving advice from patriarch Zaharij, he took off his royal clothes and got very simple and moderate, after that he got the Holy Cross and returned to Jerusalem. For the word of the cross seems foolish to those who are on the way to destruction; but to us who are on the way to salvation it is the power of God! With the power of Holy cross Lord Jesus Christ save us.

05.01.2022 Book on the Macedonian National Movement in Pirin Macedonia Macedonia Rises - The Macedonian National Movement in the Pirin Part of Macedonia by Atanas Kiryakov... and Aleksandar Donski is based on material from the archive of the Macedonian human rights activist Atanas Kiryakov. Mr Kiryakov is from Blagoevgrad in Bulgaria. The book contains a wide variety of documents including testimonies, letters, photographs, articles, legal decisions, and a clear outline of the rights requested and demanded by the Macedonians. In the census of 1946 when Macedonians were allowed to openly declare their ethnicity, around 70 per cent of the population of Pirin Macedonia declared themselves as Macedonians. The material clearly shows that the Macedonians in Bulgaria still do not consider themselves as Bulgarians and continue to work for their rights including self-identification and cultural expression. The book was published by the Macedonian Literary Association Grigor Prlichev in Sydney.

04.01.2022 IMPORTANT MEASSAGE FROM THE MACEDONIAN SCHOOL COUNCIL of NSW concerning all Macedonian Language School
02.01.2022 MEDIA RELEASE MACEDONIA’S CURRENT GEOPOLITICAL CRISIS WILL AFFECT MACEDONIANS WORLDWIDE 30 November 2020, Sydney... Macedonia’s current geopolitical situation is increasingly alarming, traumatic and harmful to ethnic Macedonians in Macedonia, Australia and throughout the diaspora. Existential threats from internal and external factors and political forces, including the current anti-Macedonian Government in the Republic of Macedonia, as well as neighbouring Bulgaria and Greece, are determined to extinguish the eternal Macedonian spirit, national identity, ancient past, historical figures and heroes, culture, language and Church on a global scale. The unprecedented conditions imposed upon Macedonia in order to gain admission to the NATO alliance and now the EU amount to ethnocide on a monumental level. This is evidenced with Macedonia forced to sign one-sided agreements and treaties negating the historical and constitutional name of the Republic of Macedonia and our ancient and recent past, language, culture, church and the Macedonian minority across geographical Macedonia, specifically outside the borders of the Republic of Macedonia (read Prespa Agreement with Greece and Friendship Agreement with Bulgaria). Current Macedonian Prime Minister, Zoran Zaev, does not have the authority nor qualifications to speak on behalf of ethnic Macedonians and the global Macedonian diaspora on historical, linguistic, cultural or other related matters. Recent comments promulgated by the Prime Minister during an interview with Sofia-based media about an alleged shared history with Bulgaria, and claims that Bulgaria’s illegal fascist occupation of Macedonia during World War II should be viewed as simply an administration amount to historical revisionism. Ethnic Macedonians suffered greatly in defence of Macedonia during the occupation, and approximately 7,000 Macedonian Jews were deported to Treblinka by the occupying Bulgarian forces, a key Tripartite Pact member. These matters are deeply concerning and have given rise to a multitude of human rights issues that impact ethnic Macedonians worldwide. Ethnic Macedonians are being rebranded and bastardised. It is ethnocide on an unprecedented global scale. On a local level within the Macedonian diaspora communities including in Australia, these issues will become more and more evident and real for us in areas such as education, health and other services. Macedonians must be resilient and work collaboratively to mitigate the negativity/disinformation/attacks of those who wish to cause harm to the Macedonian community, including in Australia. Coordinated global and localised information campaigns must continue to occur to create awareness of the situation and the impacts on the Macedonian people in Macedonia, Australia and around the world.
