Rasing funds for children from Kosovo and Metohija

Dear Parishioners,


Last weekend during the St. Sava Sunday School Recital, all proceeds from the luncheon were dedicated to the children of Kosovo and Metohija. Thanks to the generous donations of many of you, nearly $4,000 was collected! 


If you were unable to participate and still wish to donate, please use this website ​​​​https://stsavaboston.org/donate or mail a check to the church (41 Alewife Brook Parkway, Cambridge, MA 02140) by June 11. Checks should be made payable to St. Petka Circle of Serbian Sisters with "Children of Kosovo" in the memo line. 


Thank you to the volunteers who prepared the food last weekend, and many thanks to our Kolo Sisters for empowering our children to raise funds for the children in need in Kosovo and Metohija. 

Драги парохијани,


Протеклог викенда, током завршног програма Недељне школе, сав приход од ручка је посвећен деци на Косову и Метохији. Захваљујући вашим донацијама током ручка а и после, укупан приход тренутно достиже скоро $4,000. 


Ако нисте могли бити са нама у недељу, а желите да донирате новац, то можете урадити преко наше веб странице ​​​​https://stsavaboston.org/donate, или слањем чека на црквену адресу, најкасније до 11. јуна. Молимо вас да чек адресирате на "St. Petka Circle of Serbian Sisters" са назнаком "Children of Kosovo". 


Хвала свима који су спремали храну претходног викенда, као и Колу српских сестара што су уступиле могућност нашој деци да прикупљају новац за угрожену децу са Косова и Метохије.

Sunday School Program Photo Album

A memorable End-of-the-School-Year recital held last Sunday to celebrate our church school children at St. Sava Cathedral opened with the St. Sava Children's Choir followed by the St. Sava Children's Dance Ensemble mixed in with skits from Kometa, who have officially become a part of our St. Sava Cathedral community this past school year.

 

The recital included a delightful array of songs from "Lord Have Mercy" (in three languages) to "Mi Smo Deca Neba" to "Pojte Pojte Njemu Svi u Glas, Sveti Sava je uz Nas!" to "Pjevam Danju, Pjevam Nocu" culminating with the youngest children beautifully singing "Deca Su Ukras Sveta" which we all would agree—they most certainly are!

 

The charming Serbian skits themed "Protecting our Planet" with witty discussions amongst animals, flowers, and even a talking refrigerator made for a wonderful teachable performance that no one will soon forget!

 

To top it off, our three folk dancing groups performed from our youngest artists medley of Serbian children's favorite dances, including Morava, Kolubarski Vez, Nebesko, Mangupsko, Hajd Povedi, Ćaj Ćiro, and Dunje Ranke to our middle group debuting their new costumes and dance from Vojvodina, and climaxing with the oldest performers showing off their intricate steps from Šopske igre and igre iz Leskovac.

 

A round of applause was heard for all performers, teachers, parents, and Fr. Aleksandar. Shoutouts were also given to our stage crew for lights, sound, costumes, and backstage assistance. Finally, a special thank you to our program coordinator and emcee. Truly a team effort!

1st Sunday after Pentecost - of All Saints


Therefore whoever confesses Me before men, him I will also confess before My Father who is in heaven. But whoever denies Me before men, him I will also deny before My Father who is in heaven.

He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me. And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me.

Then Peter answered and said to Him, “See, we have left all and followed You. Therefore what shall we have?” So Jesus said to them, “Assuredly I say to you, that in the regeneration, when the Son of Man sits on the throne of His glory, you who have followed Me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or lands, for My name’s sake, shall receive a hundredfold, and inherit eternal life. But many who are first will be last, and the last first.

Недеља 1. по Духовима - Свих Светих


А који год призна мене пред људима, признаћу и ја њега пред Оцем својим који је на небесима. А ко се одрекне мене пред људима, одрећи ћу се и ја њега пред Оцем својим који је на небесима.

Који љуби оца или матер већма него мене, није мене достојан; и који љуби сина или кћер већма него мене, није мене достојан.И који не узме крст свој и не пође за мном, није мене достојан.

Тада одговори Петар и рече Му: Ето ми смо оставили све и за Тобом идемо; шта ће дакле бити нама? А Исус рече им: Заиста вам кажем да ћете ви који идете за мном, у другом рођењу, кад седе Син човечији на престолу славе своје, сешћете и ви на дванаест престола и судити над дванаест колена Израиљевих. И сваки, који остави куће, или браћу, или сестре, или оца, или матер, или жену, или децу, или земљу, имена мог ради, примиће сто пута онолико, и добиће живот вечни. Али ће многи први бити последњи и последњи први.
