DESCRIPTION:Saints\, Feasts\, and Readings for 10/09/2026\n\nSaints and Fea
 sts: James the Apostle\, son of Alphaeus\; Andronicus and Athanasia\; Mart
 yr Poplia\; Abraham and Lot\n\nStrict Fast\n\nEpistle Reading: I Corinthia
 ns 4:9-16\nBrethren\, God has exhibited us apostles as last of all\, like 
 men sentenced to death\; because we have become a spectacle to the world\,
  to angels and to men. We are fools for Christ's sake\, but you are wise i
 n Christ. We are weak\, but you are strong. You are held in honor\, but we
  in disrepute. To the present hour we hunger and thirst\, we are ill-clad 
 and buffeted and homeless\, and we labor\, working with our own hands. Whe
 n reviled\, we bless\; when persecuted\, we endure\; when slandered\, we t
 ry to conciliate\; we have become\, and are now\, as the refuse of the wor
 ld\, the off-scouring of all things. I do not write this to make you asham
 ed\, but to admonish you as my beloved children. For though you have count
 less guides in Christ\, you do not have many fathers. For I became your fa
 ther in Christ Jesus through the gospel. I urge you\, then\, be imitators 
 of me.\n\nGospel Reading: Matthew 9:36-38\; 10:1-8\nAt that time\, when Je
 sus saw the crowds\, he had compassion for them\, because they were harass
 ed and helpless\, like sheep without a shepherd. Then he said to his disci
 ples\, "The harvest is plentiful\, but the laborers are few\; pray therefo
 re the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest."\n\nAnd 
 he called to him his twelve disciples and gave them authority over unclean
  spirits\, to cast them out\, and to heal every disease and every infirmit
 y. The names of the twelve apostles are these: first\, Simon\, who is call
 ed Peter\, and Andrew his brother\; James the son of Zebedee\, and John hi
 s brother\; Philip and Bartholomew\; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector\
 ; James the son of Alphaios\, and Lebbaeos called Thaddaios\; Simon the Ca
 nanaean\, and Judas Iscariot\, who betrayed him. These twelve Jesus sent o
 ut\, charging them\, "Go nowhere among the Gentiles\, and enter no town of
  the Samaritans\, but go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. 
 And preach as you go\, saying\, 'The kingdom of heaven is at hand.' Heal t
 he sick\, raise the dead\, cleanse lepers\, cast out demons. You received 
 without paying\, give without pay."\n\nHosted by Holy Trinity Greek Orthod
