Unknown preacher
Using the parable of the entrusted money and the witness of Saint Stephen, the preacher teaches that life, time, abilities, possessions, and opportunities are gifts held in trust from God. Christians are called to use those gifts boldly for others, serve the Church and their neighbors, and live according to God’s will rather than fearfully keeping what they have for themselves.

Rev. Fr. Mesrop Ash
Using Christ’s teaching that the Son of Man will come like lightning from east to west, the preacher explains why Armenian churches face east and how their architecture embodies the Gospel. The sanctuary’s orientation, the letter Է, the baptismal font, and the nav all prepare worshipers to encounter Christ through baptism, the Eucharist, and readiness for his promised return.
