Saint Sarkis Girls Basketball team clinches regular season 1
st
place
Reported by Edward Barsamian
|
|
At Saint Sarkis we have many youth activities that make us feel happy and proud over the years: Yeraz dance Ensemble, the Annual Youth Camp, Salt and Light for the 2
nd
year, the Girls and Junior Boys basketball teams.
The Saint Sarkis Girls team is in 1
st
place with an 8-0 record with 2 games remaining. Last Sunday the girls won against a very strong St Leon-1 team with a score of 22-13. The relatively low score reflected a tenacious defense played by both teams.
With every game played, our team shows more confidence and maturity, although some aspects of our game such as rebounding and set plays on offense can be improved.
The last 2 games for the Girls team will be played in New York, Martin Van Buren HS, and everyone is invited to come and cheer for the team. The game times and dates will be provided in timely fashion, but all games start no earlier than 2:00 PM.
Our Junior Boys team is poised for a strong finish, sporting a 6 win 2 loss record. Coaches Arry and Jeff are working hard to have them ready for the playoffs on March 10, and hopefully the Championships on March 17.
The next game for the Junior Boys team will take place in New York at the MVB High School on February 24, at 4:30 pm.
For details and other information please call Edward Barsamian at 347-556-2666

THE FIRST EPISTLE OF ST. PAUL TO TIMOTHY (2:15-19)
Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth.
Avoid godless chatter, because those who indulge in it will become more and more ungodly. Their teaching will spread like gangrene. Among them are Hymenaeus and Philetus, who have wandered away from the truth. They say that the resurrection has already taken place, and they destroy the faith of some.
Nevertheless, God's solid foundation stands firm, sealed with this inscription: "The Lord knows those who are his," and, "Everyone who confesses the name of the Lord must turn away from wickedness."
ՊՕՂՈՍ ԱՌԱՔԵԱԼԻ Ա. ՆԱՄԱԿԸ ՏԻՄՈԹԷՈՍԻ (2:15-19)
Ջանա՛ Աստուծոյ աչքին ընտիր ըլլալ, այնպիսի մշակ մը՝ որ իր գործերուն համար ամչնալիք բան մը չունի, որպէս մէկը՝ որ ուղիղ կերպով կ՚ուսուցանէ Աստուծոյ ճշմարիտ պատգմը։
Հեռու կեցիր հաւատքի ճշմարտութիւնները խեղաթիւրող պարապ վիճաբանութիւններէ, որոնք հետզհետէ մարդիկը Աստուծմէ հեռացնելու կը ծառայեն միայն։ Այդպիսի խօսքերու ձգած թոյնը քաղցկեղի պէս կը կրծէ մարդս։ Այդպիսի խեղաթիւրող վիճասէրներ էին Հիմենէոս եւ Ֆիլետոս, որոնք ճշմարտութենէն շեղեցան եւ շատերու հաւատքը քանդեցին, ըսելով՝ թէ մեռելներու յարութիւնը արդէն տեղի ունեցած է։ Բայց Աստուծոյ դրած հաստատուն հիմը կանգուն կը մնայ։ Անոր վրայ գրուած է. «Տէրը կը ճանչնայ անոնք՝ որոնք իրեն են», եւ «Ով որ Տիրոջ անունը կը կրէ՝ թող հեռու մնայ անիրաւ գործերէ»։
THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST ACCORDING TO JOHN (6:39-47)
And this is the will of him who sent me, that I shall lose none of all that he has given me, but raise them up at the last day. For my Father's will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day."
At this the Jews began to grumble about him because he said, "I am the bread that came down from heaven." They said, "Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How can he now say, 'I came down from heaven'?"
"Stop grumbling among yourselves," Jesus answered. "No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him, and I will raise him up at the last day. It is written in the Prophets: 'They will all be taught by God.' Everyone who listens to the Father and learns from him comes to me. No one has seen the Father except the one who is from God; only he has seen the Father. I tell you the truth, he who believes has everlasting life.
ՅԻՍՈՒՍ ՔՐԻՍՏՈՍԻ ԱՒԵՏԱՐԱՆ ԸՍՏ ՅՈՎՀԱՆՆՈՒ (6:39-47)
«Զիս ղրկող Հօրս կամքն է որ չկորսնցնեմ ոչ իսկ մէկը բոլոր անոնցմէ որ ինծի տուաւ, այլ յարուցանեմ զայն վերջին օրը: Հօրս կամքը հետեւեալն է. ով որ տեսնէ Որդին եւ հաւատայ անոր՝ յաւիտենական կեանք պիտի ունենայ, եւ ես պիտի յարուցանեմ զայն վերջին օրը»:
Հրեաները սկսան տրտնջալ իրեն դէմ, որովհետեւ ըսած էր թէ «Ես եմ երկինքէն իջած հացը», եւ կը հարցնէին.
-Այս մարդը Յովսէփի որդին՝ Յիսուսը չէ՞, որուն հայրն ու մայրը կը ճանչնանք. ինչպէ՞ս ուրեմն կ՚ըսէ՝ «Ես երկինքէն իջայ»:
Յիսուս անոնց պատասխանեց.
«Կը բաւէ դուք ձեզի քրթմնջէք: Ոեւէ մէկը չի կրնար ինծի գալ եթէ զիս ղրկող Հայրը զայն ինծի չբերէ. եւ ես պիտի յարուցանեմ զայն վերջին օրը: Մարգարէութիւններուն մէջ գրուած է. «Ամէն մարդ Աստուծմէ սորված պիտի ըլլայ»: Ով որ Հօրմէս կը լսէ եւ իրմէ կը սորվի՝ ինծի կու գայ: Ոչ ոք Հայրը տեսած է, բացի անկէ՝ որ Աստուծմէ է, որովհետեւ միայն անիկա տեսած է Հայրը: Ու ես կ՚ըսեմ ձեզի, թէ ով որ ինծի հաւատայ՝ յաւիտենական կեանք ունի»։

ST. GREGORY THE THEOLOGIAN
This Saturday, February 2, the Armenian Church commemorates Saint Gregory the Theologian, also known as St. Gregory of Nazianzus, who is considered to be one of the great fathers of the Eastern Church. He was the son of the bishop of Naziansus in Cappadocia. A great orator, his famous Five Theological Orations were powerful statements of faith and an eloquent defense of orthodoxy that earned him the title "the Theologian." He also wrote poetry, letters, and with St. Basil compiled a selection of writings by Origen.
Also commemorated this week:
Monday, February 4: Sts. Maccabees: Eleazer and her seven sons.
Tuesday, February 5: Twelve Holy Prophets
