He was descended from the Tribe of Levi, and was the son of Elkanah from Ramathaim-Zophim of Mount Ephraim. He was born, having been besought from the Lord through the prayers of his mother Hannah (therefore he received the name Samuel, which means &ldquo;besought from God&rdquo;). Even before birth, he was dedicated to God. Her song, &ldquo;My heart exults in the Lord,&rdquo; is the third Old Testament ode of the Canon (1 Sam\/1 Kings 2:1-10).<\/p>\n<p>When the boy reached the age of three, his mother went with him to Shiloh and in accord with her vow dedicated him to the worship of God. She gave him into the care of the High Priest Eli, who at this time was a judge over Israel. The prophet grew in the fear of God, and at twelve years of age he had a revelation that God would punish the house of the High Priest Eli, because he did not restrain the impiety of his sons. Eli&rsquo;s whole family was wiped out in a single day. <\/p>\n<p>[&#8230;&#93;<\/p>\n<p><em>Learn more on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oca.org\/saints\/lives\/2023\/08\/20\/102349-prophet-samuel\">Orthodox Church of America<\/a> website.<\/em><\/p>\n<div style=\"clear: both;\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<h2>Services and Events This Week<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Sun Aug 13<\/strong> &mdash; SUNDAY DIVINE LITURGY Orthros 8:30am Liturgy 9:30am LIVE STREAM<\/li>\n<li><strong>Mon Aug 14<\/strong> &mdash; Paraklesis to the Theotokos 9:30am LIVE STREAM<\/li>\n<li><strong>Tue Aug 15<\/strong> &mdash; Dormition Theotokos Divine Liturgy 9:30am LIVE STREAM<\/li>\n<li><strong>Wed Aug 16<\/strong> &mdash; Early Divine Liturgy 6:00am LIVE STREAM<\/li>\n<li><strong>Wed Aug 16<\/strong> &mdash; St. Peter Game Night 6:00pm-9pm<\/li>\n<li><strong>Fri Aug 18<\/strong> &mdash; St. Paisios Brotherhood 7:00pm<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div style=\"clear: both;\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<h2>Let&#39;s Pray the Paraklesis to the Theotokos Daily<\/h2>\n<div style=\"clear: both;\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/stpeterorthodoxchurch.com\/lets-pray-the-paraklesis-of-the-theotokos-daily\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Click here to get more information\" src=\"https:\/\/stpeterorthodoxchurch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/theotokos-wider-than-the-heavens-500x388-1.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Click the image to get more information on how to participate from the St. Peter&#39;s website<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"clear: both;\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<p>Our goal at St. Peter&rsquo;s is to have one person or family pray the Parakelsis to the Theotokos for at least one day of every month.

(9:2-12)<\/p>\n<p>Brethren, you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord. This is my defense to those who would examine me. Do we not have the right to our food and drink? Do we not have the right to be accompanied by a wife, as the other apostles and the brothers of the Lord and Cephas? Or is it only Barnabas and I who have no right to refrain from working for a living? Who serves as a soldier at his own expense? Who plants a vineyard without eating any of its fruit? Who tends a flock without getting some of the milk? Do I say this on human authority? Does not the law say the same? For it is written in the Law of Moses, &ldquo;You shall not muzzle an ox when it is treading out the grain.&rdquo; Is it for oxen that God is concerned? Does he not speak entirely for our sake? It was written for our sake, because the plowman should plow in hope and the thresher thresh in hope of a share in the crop. If we have sown spiritual good among you, is it too much if we reap your material benefits? If others share this rightful claim upon you, do not we still more? Nevertheless, we have not made use of this right, but we endure anything rather than put an obstacle in the way of the Gospel of Christ.<\/p>\n<h4>GOSPEL<\/h4>\n<p>For the Eleventh Sunday of Matthew<\/p>\n<p>The Reading from the Holy Gospel according to St. Matthew. (18:23-35)<\/p>\n<p>The Lord spoke this parable: &ldquo;The kingdom of heaven may be compared to a king who wished to settle accounts with his servants. When he began the reckoning, one was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents; and as he could not pay, his lord ordered him to be sold, with his wife and children and all that he had, and payment to be made. So the servant fell on his knees, imploring him, &lsquo;Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay you everything.&rsquo; And out of pity for him the lord of that servant released him and forgave him the debt. But that same servant, as he went out, came upon one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii; and seizing him by the throat he said, &lsquo;Pay what you owe.&rsquo; So his fellow servant fell down and besought him, &lsquo;Have patience with me, and I will pay you.&rsquo; He refused and went and put him in prison until he should pay the debt. When his fellow servants saw what had taken place, they were greatly distressed, and they went and reported to their lord all that had taken place. Then his lord summoned him and said to him, &lsquo;You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt because you besought me; and should not you have had mercy on your fellow servant, as I had mercy on you?&rsquo; And in anger his lord delivered him to the jailers, until he should pay all his debt. So also My heavenly Father will do to every one of you, if you do not forgive your brother from your heart.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<div style=\"text-align: center; margin: 1em 1em\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"St. Peter Orthodox Church\" src=\"https:\/\/stpeterorthodoxchurch.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/divider-2.png\" style=\"border: 0;\" \/><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Afterfeast of the Dormition, The Prophet Samuel, Wednesday Morning Liturgy, Wisdom from the Elders, more&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":24350,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[48],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-11690","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stpeterorthodoxchurch.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11690","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stpeterorthodoxchurch.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stpeterorthodoxchurch.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stpeterorthodoxchurch.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stpeterorthodoxchurch.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11690"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stpeterorthodoxchurch.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11690\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stpeterorthodoxchurch.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/24350"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stpeterorthodoxchurch.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11690"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stpeterorthodoxchurch.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11690"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stpeterorthodoxchurch.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11690"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
