Humility and Thanksgiving
Humility
The word 'humility' comes from the Latin word 'humus' which means fertile ground. Humility is the situation of the earth. The earth is always there, always taken for granted, never remembered, always trodden on by everyone, somewhere we cast and pour out all the refuse, all we don't need. It's there, silent and accepting everything and in a miraculous way making out of all the refuse new richness in spite of corruption, transforming corruption itself into a power of life and a new possibility of creativeness, open to the sunshine, open to the rain, ready to receive any seed we sow and capable of bringing thirtyfold, sixtyfold, a hundredfold, out of every seed.
- Metropolitan Anthony Bloom, Beginning to Pray
Thanksgiving
What words can adequately describe God’s gifts? They are so numerous that they defy enumeration. They are so great that any one of them demands our total gratitude in response...How, then, shall we repay the Lord for all his goodness to us? He is so good that he asks no recompense except our love: that is the only payment he desires.
- Saint Basil the Great; Rules for Monks

SERVICE SCHEDULE
At the direction of the Archbishop, and following the policies of the State of Minnesota and the Cities of Minneapolis and St. Anthony, it is strongly recommended, whether or vaccinated or not vaccinated, to wear masks at the Cathedral or the Annunciation Chapel. The use of hand sanitizers and social distancing are still considered to be helpful. We are very grateful - before God and to our parish community - for our overall safety and stability through these long, difficult months! We look forward to seeing you!
