The Miuron (Chrism) Dare

/0 Comments/in /by

Next Step #380: After the GOP debate, there’s no dare to consecrate Holy Miuron. Fr. Vazken goes through the mechanics and rich symbolism of blessing the Holy Miuron – done once every 7 years in Holy Etchmiadzin – flowers, spices and oils – the binding power of the Holy Spirit. And a special Armodox addition – the alabaster box held by St. Bartholomew.

Three Funerals and an Identity

/0 Comments/in /by

Next Step #48 – May 6, 2009

The collective and past moments in our individual lives has contributed towards our identity. Earlier this year, Fr. Vazken’s trip to Armenia initiated a discussion at Etchmiadzin, the Holy Mother See, about identity. And this week with the passing of three people, Ankine Mouradian, Jora Markarian and Rev. Fr. Vartan Dulgarian, the line is drawn between their lives and ours. Using the metaphor of the onion, we can imagine ourselves as being composed of layers, and each layer around us there for a reason, including the hurts and the pains we’ve lived through. These are the experiences that today give us the strength to reach out to someone else now experiencing the same. What about the purity of the message? Well, time to tune in and find out how to keep it pure.
