The UOCC is in communion with the world family of Orthodox Churches and is under the

omophorion of the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople.The UOCC follows the unbroken

2000 year historical tradition and teachings of Christianity as well as the 1000 year tradition of

Orthodoxy in Ukraine (founded in 988). The UOCC, in unity with all Orthodox Christian Churches,

believes itself to be part of the “One, Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church” founded by Jesus Christ &

proclaiming the same authentic apostolic faith which was originally preached at Pentecost.

The Central Eparchy Centenary Committee has identified the

Family Camp Pilot as a strategic future oriented Centenary Project and

the Regina Decent of the Holy Spirit-UO Parish Council has mandated

the local Regina Centenary Committee to explore the formation of

a Family Camp Working Group jointly with other congregations in the

Central Eparchy.

Goal of the Family Camp Proposed Pilot To create an additional vehicle for renewing our Church parishes, by bringing our Orthodox member

families together and empowering and engaging them in a process of mutual support in living a Gospel

centered life as individuals, families and communities as a whole.

It is envisaged that each participating Congregation would delegate 2-4 members to participate in the

Family Camp Working Group. Please visit the Holy Trinity website www.orthodoxsaskatoon.org to

read the Proposal in its entirety. If you would like to participate in the Working Group or if you have

any questions feel free to call Yars Lozowchuk directly at 306-501-9200 or e-mail him at

yaroslaw@lozowchuk.com or contact Fr. Taras or Parish Council President Rod Antonichuk

St. John Chrysostom on Every day you provide your bodies with good to keep them from failing.

In the same way your good works should be the daily nourishment of your hearts.

Your bodies are fed with food and your spirits with good works.

You aren't to deny your soul, which is going to live forever, what you grant to your body,

which is going to die.

Our camp is filled with many cultural and recreational activities that are shared with campers

When Mary Magdalene stood weeping beside the empty tomb, she showed, as St. John Chrysostom

says, the enduring love which she felt for Jesus. Her patience was rewarded. She was the first to see

Him risen from the dead. She knew Him only when He said her name. Jesus told Mary to go to the

disciples and say:

“I am ascending to My Father and to your Father, to My God and to your God” (John 20:17).

Jesus appeared to the disciples on a number of occasions before He took them out to the Mount

of Olives where He blessed them and commanded them to be His witnesses, first in Jerusalem, then, in

“all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth” (Acts 1:8).

Jesus was lifted up and a cloud took Him out of their sight. The two men in white robes told the

disciples not to keep gazing up into heaven, after the Jesus they loved, because Jesus would return in

the same way as they had seen Him leave.

The Ascension was the final Resurrection appearance to the Disciples and Mary, the Mother of

God, and it marked a new beginning in all their lives. The Disciples went back to Jerusalem “with

great joy” and “devoted themselves to prayer, together with the women and Mary, the Mother of

Jesus.”

The Disciples elected Matthias to bring their number up to twelve again. They were waiting, as

Jesus had told them to; they were waiting for the coming of the Holy Spirit. Jesus had told the

Disciples that the Comforter, the Holy Spirit, would not come until He ascended to His Father (John

16:7).

Jesus left us with many promises, three of which are associated with the Feast of the Ascension:

1. Jesus promises to send the Holy Spirit.

2. Jesus promises to remain with us even to the end of time.

3. Jesus promises to return in glory at the second coming.

For Jesus is our forerunner into heaven, He takes our human nature into the Godhead, in His steadfast

love.

DID YOU KNOW?

Christ’s Second Coming is also known as Parousia or the Eschatological Times. An icon of Mary

praying with her arms outstretched as in the icon of the Ascension is called the Oranta. Ascension is 40

days after Easter. The waiting period between Ascension and the Descent of the Holy Spirit is 10 days.

THE ASCENSION

Christ told his disciples “If ye have faith as a grain of mustard

seed - nothing shall be impossible unto you.” (Matthew 17:20)

In Case You are Wishing That You Had the Actual Faith of a Mustard

Seed... Wish No More! Know that You Have It. God plants that

little seed in everybody's heart All you gotta do is WATER IT!!!

The Icon:

A bright cloud accompanies each Theophany or divine appearance.

At the Ascension, Christ disappears in the cloud and the angels tell the

apostles that He will return the same way for His Second Coming

The cloud is a Mandorla. It consists of concentric circles that become

darker and darker as they get closer to Christ. This shows the reality

that the closer one gets to Mystery, the less one really understands.

From the cloud, Christ blesses the Apostles and Mary. Even though

He is Ascending to heaven, His blessing remains with us forever. In

His left hand, He holds a scroll which represents His teachings.

Mary is in the centre of the Apostles. Her hands are raised in prayer in

the ancient form called ‘orans’. This gesture indicates Mary’s role as

intercessor on our behalf before her Son.

A straight line from the Ascended Christ to Mary can be drawn to connect heaven with earth.

The group of Apostles with Mary, the Mother of God, represents the Church. St. Paul appears

with the Apostles although he would not have been present. This shows that the Church of the future

also participates in this event.

The hills in the background, the movement of the Angels, Mary’s hands raised in prayer and the

Apostles looking up give the icon the upward movement of the feast day.
