We had the blessing of His Grace Innocentios who celebrated in Rwamagana parish the Feast of the Circumcision of Our Lord Jesus Christ and the commemoration of Saint Basil the Great, this 1st January 2016. His Grace Innocentios has celebrated the Divine Liturgy as a Priest and not as a Bishop, because he has only 3 priests in Rwanda where more than 1000 people have been baptized and many catechumens are waiting the sacraments. « Therefore said He unto them, The harvest trul...y is great, but the labourers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest»Luke 10:2. The Apolytikion and Kontakion of that day have helped us to enter the mystery of these two feasts.
Apolytikia t.1
1. Sans changement tu assumas l'humaine condition, étant Dieu par nature, Seigneur compatissant; pour accomplir le précepte de la Loi, tu as voulu subir la circoncision de la Chair afin de dissiper les ténèbres et d'arracher le voile où s'enveloppent nos passions. Gloire à ton immense bonté, gloire à ta misercorde, ô Verbe de Dieu, gloire à ton ineffable tendresse qui t'a fait descendre jusquà nous.
2.Par toute la terre ton message s'est répandu et ta parole fait reçue dans tout l'univers; par elle tu as enseingé les divines verités, expliqué la nature des êtres et redressé la conduite des humains; Père saint, pontife au non royal, prie le Christ notre Dieu pour le salut de nos âmes.
Kontakion t.3 Today the Virgin
The Lord of all things undergoes circumcision, and in his love cuts off the failings of mortals; today he gives salvation to the world. While in the highest there rejoices the Hierarch of the Creator and bearer of light, Basil, the god-like initiate of Christ.
After the Divine Liturgy the Bishop said the Prayer of Doxology of the New Year.
Every Christian in Rwanda wishes the Happy New Year to the Bishop Innocentios and to all Orthodox Christians in Rwanda, Burundi and East Congo.
May God grant him many years.
From the Diocesan Coordination.
