On the Fourth Sunday after Pentecost (the Sunday of the Healing of the Centurion’s Servant), His Eminence Vladimir, Metropolitan of Chișinău and All Moldova, celebrated the Divine Liturgy at the Metropolitan Cathedral of the Nativity of the Lord in the capital city of Chișinău.
Faith is the essential condition for attaining salvation; it is the means through which we receive divine grace, granted to us through Christ, so that we may cooperate with it. Faith is itself a gift from God, in the sense that it would not be possible if one did not experience the calling and attraction of the grace of Christ, which awakens and sustains it.
Having before us the example of the centurion’s faith, who prayed for the healing of his servant, let us confess our Savior Jesus Christ as God, the Provider and Sustainer of our lives, and let us proclaim aloud the goodness that God continually bestows upon us at every moment of our lives.
During the Divine Liturgy, many of the faithful present received Holy Communion, praising and blessing God.
