Since Lydda was near Joppa, the disciples, who heard that Peter was there, sent two men to him with the request, “Please come to us without delay.” So Peter got up and went with them; and when he arrived, they took him to the room upstairs. All the widows stood beside him, weeping and showing tunics and other clothing that Dorcas had made while she was with them. Peter put all of them outside, and then he knelt down and prayed. He turned to the body and said, “Tabitha, get up.” Then she opened her eyes, and seeing Peter, she sat up. He gave her his hand and helped her up. Then calling the saints and widows, he showed her to be alive. This became known throughout Joppa, and many believed in the Lord. Troparia and Kontakia Let the heavens be glad, let the earth rejoice,* for the Lord has done a mighty deed with His arm.* He trampled death by death. He became the first-born of the dead;* He saved us from the abyss of Hades* and granted great mercy to the world. Troparion, Tone 3: Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, now and for ever and ever. Amen. Lord, as of old You raised the Paralytic,* lift my soul by Your divine presence,* for by many sins and foolish actions,* I, too, am now afflicted and crippled.* Raise me, that being saved I may cry to You:* Glory to Your power, O merciful Christ. Kontakion, Tone 3: Alleluia, Tone 1 Verse 1: Of Your mercies, O Lord, I will sing forever; with my mouth I will proclaim Your truth from generation to generation. Verse 2: For You have said, "Mercy will be established forever." Prokeimenon, Tone 1 ALL: Let Your mercy, O Lord, be upon us, as we have hoped in You. Verse: Rejoice in the Lord, O you just; praise befits the righteous. (Psalm 32:22,1) Gospel (John 5:1-15) At that time, Jesus went up to Jerusalem. Now in Jerusalem by the Sheep Gate there is a pool, called in Hebrew Beth-zatha, which has five porticoes. In these lay many invalids— blind, lame, and paralyzed. One man was there who had been ill for thirty-eight years. When Jesus saw him lying there and knew that he had been there a long time, He said to him, “Do you want to be made well?” The sick man answered Him, “Sir, I have no one to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up; and while I am making my way, someone else steps down ahead of me.” Jesus said to him, “Stand up, take your mat and walk.” At once the man was made well, and he took up his mat and began to walk. Now that day was a Epistle (Acts 9:32-42) A reading from the Acts of the Holy Apostles. In those days, as Peter went here and there among all the believers, he came down also to the saints living in Lydda. There he found a man named Aeneas, who had been bedridden for eight years, for he was paralyzed. Peter said to him, “Aeneas, Jesus Christ heals you; get up and make your bed!” And immediately he got up. And all the residents of Lydda and Sharon saw him and turned to the Lord. Now in Joppa there was a disciple whose name was Tabitha, which in Greek is Dorcas. She was devoted to good works and acts of charity. At that time she became ill and died. When they had washed her, they laid her in a room 2 ANNOUNCEMENTS Sabbath. So the Jews said to the man who had been cured, “It is the Sabbath; it is not lawful for you to carry your mat.” But he answered them, “The man who made me well said to me, ‘Take up your mat and walk.’” They asked him, “Who is the man who said to you, ‘Take it up and walk’?” Now the man who had been healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had disappeared in the crowd that was there. Later Jesus found him in the temple and said to him, “See, you have been made well! Do not sin any more, so that nothing worse happens to you.” The man went away and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well.

Power-point Presentation by Deacon Jim Nakonechny in regards to the renovations required for the Cathedral building was given. The Cathedral is 68 years old and the exterior masonry, windows, doors, main dome, all small domes, roof all need work. The architect, David Murray, has proposed a 5 year plan to restore the exterior of the Cathedral. Original blueprints were found and are being used for the restoration project. Four Phases have been proposed to begin in 2015 with a completion in 2018. As the Cathedral has been designated as a Heritage Site, it must be renovated as it had been originally built. Funding sources will include: City of Edmonton, Province of Alberta, Eparchy of Edmonton, and Private and Group donors. A tentative “Buy a Brick” Campaign has been proposed and could potentially raise over $1.5 million. Substantial savings can be had if the project is done over 3 years instead of 5 years. This is a large project and needs support both in money and time. Ed Hladunewich presented a donation, on behalf of long time parishioners of St. Josaphat’s, Peter and Doris Kule, in the amount of $50,000/year for the next 5 years for a total of $250,000.00 promised. A cheque in the amount of $50,000.00 was presented to Father Peter Babej for the first year this evening.

All new Pastoral Council members were also welcomed to the new Council. 13. Open Discussion: a. Helen Tymoczko gave a handout example of a staircase summary that an American Church had given to its’ parishioners showing a chart of suggested weekly giving/ This maybe something to consider if we are wanting our parishioners to increase their donations by 15% this year/ - Had asked what mission work does St Josaphats “do” as this is seen on the summary on Tax Receipts. (Response - Lenten mission visiting priests, etc) - As the Parish does a once per month collection for the needy, could some percentage of these collections go to our own people who may be in need in our own Parish (Response - to be further discussed at a future Pastoral Council meeting) - If we should be donating 10% of our net income to the church, how come the Eparchy doesn’t donate a % to each parish? (Response – eparchy has been very generous in supporting the cathedral in the past, especially with building projects) b. Ihor Broda if the Shroud of Turin replica be permanently housed at St Josaphat’s. The Plastianycha is traditional at Easter time for veneration, can we return back to the original tradition for next year?

Stephan Romaniuk noted that at the 11am Sunday Ukrainian liturgy, most seniors have great difficulty hearing and understanding what is said during the liturgy – priest’s voices don’t carry well throughout the Church. Can the Ukrainian liturgy have only one language used – Ukrainian gospel and one Ukrainian “kazannia” by the priest? (Response: liturgies are sometimes combined as “bilingual” for special occasions ie. Praznyk, Sviachene, First Communion. Don’t want to start cancelling or changing liturgies – causes great confusion for everyone.) d. Ihor Broda would like to congratulate the clergy on an excellent and information Bulletin but would like to have more printed as many times there are not enough for everyone at the 11am liturgy. (Response: Bulletins are also posted to the Church website and parishioners can also sign up for emailed Bulletins) 14. Father Peter Babej thanked Dan Papirnik for accepting the position of Chair of the Pastoral Council and also thanked all new Council and Committee members. There is lot of work to do and many challenges ahead. Father Peter is pleased by the financial progress and commented that the Church cannot rely on gambling money for operational expenses. The Parish is like a human being – with virtues and weaknesses that need to be worked on with good stewardship. There has been an increase in the number of committees and there may be more committees necessary as we go forward. 15. Father Peter Babej concluded the meeting with a Prayer. 16. The AGM adjourned at 8:55pm Respectfully submitted by, Lydia Boyko Hodgson Христос воскрес із мертвих, смертю смерть подолав, і тим, що в гробах життя дарував. Тропарі і кондаки Тропар, Глас 3: Нехай веселяться небесні, нехай радуються земляни,* бо показав владу рукою Своєю Господь,* Він смертю смерть подолав,* первістком з-поміж мертвих став,* визволив нас із глибин аду,* і подав світові велику милість. Слава Отцю, і Сину, і Святому Духові. Kондак, Глас 8: Душу мою, Господи, у гріхах всіляких і безглуздими діяннями тяжко розслаблену,* воздвигни божественним Твоїм заступництвом,* як і розслабленого воздвигнув Ти древньо,* щоб я кликав до Тебе, спасаючись:* Слава, Христе, владі Твоїй. І нині, і повсякчас і на віки вічні. Амінь. Kондак, Глас 8: Хоч і в гріб зійшов Ти, Безсмертний,* та адову зруйнував Ти силу,* і воскрес єси як переможець, Христе Боже,* жінкам мироносицям звістивши: Радуйтеся,* і Твоїм апостолам мир даруєш,* падшим подаєш воскресіння. Прокімен, Глас 1 Будь Господи, милість Твоя на нас, бо уповали ми на Тебе. Стих: Радуйтеся, праведні, в Господі; правим подобає похвала. Апостол (Діяння 6:1-7) Діянь Святих Апостолів читання. Тими днями сталося, що Петро, обходячи всі місця, прибув і до святих, що мешкали в Лідді. Там він знайшов одного чоловіка, на ім'я Еней, що лежав на ліжку вісім років і був паралітик. Петро сказав до нього: 9 «Енею, Ісус Христос тебе оздоровляє. Устань і сам постели собі ліжко!» І вмить той підвівся. І бачили його всі мешканці Лідди та Сарону, і навернулися до Господа. Була ж у Яффі одна учениця, на ім' я Тавита, що значить у перекладі Дорка (Сарна). Вона була повна добрих діл та милостині, що чинила. І сталося тими днями, що вона занедужала й умерла. Обмили її і поклали в горниці. А що Лідда лежить близько Яффи, учні, почувши, що Петро там, послали двох чоловіків з просьбою до нього: «Не отягайся прийти до нас!» Петро негайно рушив з ними. І як прийшов, вони його повели наверх у горницю, де всі вдови оточили його з плачем, показуючи йому туніки й плащі, що їх робила Дорка, бувши з ними. Велівши всім вийти з хати, Петро став на коліна й почав молитися, а повернувшись до тіла, мовив: «Тавито, встань!» І та відкрила свої очі, й побачивши Петра, сіла. Він же подав їй руку та й підвів її і, прикликавши святих та вдів, поставив її живою. Довідалась про це вся Яффа, і багато повірило в Господа. Був там один чоловік, що нездужав тридцять вісім років. Побачив Ісус, що він лежить, і, довідавшись, що він вже дуже довго нездужає, каже до нього: «Бажаєш видужати?» Відповідає йому недужий: «Не маю нікого, пане, хто б мене спустив у купіль, коли зрушиться вода; бо, коли я туди приходжу, інший передо мною сходить.» Ісус мовить до нього: «Встань, візьми ложе твоє і ходи!» І відразу видужав той чоловік, і взяв своє ложе, і почав ходити. А був то день суботній. Юдеї кажуть тому, що видужав: «Таж то субота. Не личить тобі носити ложе.» Той їм відповів: «Той хто мене оздоровив, сказав мені: ‘Візьми твоє ложе і ходи.' Спитали його: «Хто той, що сказав тобі: 'Візьми твоє ложе і ходи?’» Але той, що видужав, не знав, хто він, бо Ісус зник у натовпі, що був на тому місці. Потім Ісус найшов його у храмі і мовив до нього: «Оце ти видужав, не гріши ж більше, щоб що гірше тобі не сталось. Чоловік пішов і оповів юдеям, що то Ісус оздоровив його. «Ангел Сповіщав» замість «Достойно» Ангел звістив благодатній: Чистая Діво радуйся! І знову кажу: Радуйся! Твій Син воскрес на третій день із гробу, і мертвих воскресив. Люди, веселіться. Світися, світися, новий Єрусалиме! Слава бо Господня на тобі засяяла. Радій нині й веселися, Сіоне. А ти, Чиста Богородице, втішайся воскресінням Сина твого. Стихи Алилуя 1. Благоволив Ти, Господи, землю Твою, Ти повернув полон Яковів. 2. Милість і істина зустрілися, правда і мир обцілувалися. Євангеліє (Йоан 15:1-15) В той час Ісус прибув до Єрусалиму. А є в Єрусалимі Овеча купіль, що зветься по єврейському Витесда і має п'ять притворів. У них лежала сила недужих, сліпих, кривих, і сухих, які чекали, коли зрушиться вода: бо ангел Господній сходив час від часу в купіль і зрушував воду, і хто перший по зрушенні води спускався у купіль, видужував, хоч би яка була його недуга.
