Choosing the Baptismal Garments by Helen Marakis |
|
|
The baptism is one of the most important days in the life of a
newborn child; it is your son or daughter's introduction into
the Christian fellowship as well as a way of thanking the Lord
for the abundant blessing of a new child. Since the parents need
to take much into consideration for this ceremony--such as the
organizing the invitations, preparing the food and arranging the
decor – it will prove helpful to involve the godparents in the
selection of the baptismal garments. Not only will it remove a
bit of stress from the parents' shoulders, it will also be a way
of ushering in the spiritual connection which will be shared
between godparent and child. |

Goddesses and Heroes of the Ancients by Helen Marakis |
|
|
With the coming of the Olympic games once again, I am reminded
of the history behind the legends of the gods and goddesses and
the games themselves. In the history of my culture, truths
were passed down from one generation to another in the manner
of tales, riddles, and stories since time immemorial. |

The Greeks were inspired by lofty ideals of beauty. And these
same ideals can be imitated and applied to create and decorate

combination of imagination, good taste, statues and lamps, any
living area can be transformed into one that exudes elegance
and coziness at the same time. |

Celebrate Renewal and Rebirth by Helen Marakis |
|
|
The celebration of renewal and rebirth, both of the body and the
spirit is a deeply-help Orthodox tradition. From the ancient
festivals of the equinox to the observance of Easter, all
Orthodox faiths bear joyful and solemn witness of the earth's
reawakening. And nowhere is the celebration of rebirth more
joyous in custom than in the sacrament of baptism. |
