Brothers and sisters, Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, set apart for the gospel of God, which he promised beforehand through his prophets in the holy scriptures, the gospel concerning his Son, who was descended from David according to the flesh and was declared to be Son of God with power according to the spirit of holiness by resurrection from the dead, Jesus Christ our Lord, through whom we have received grace and apostleship to bring about the obedience of faith among all the Gentiles for the sake of his name, including yourselves who are called to belong to Jesus Christ, To all God s beloved in Rome, who are called to be saints: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is proclaimed throughout the world. For God, whom I serve with my spirit by announcing the gospel of his Son, is my witness that without ceasing I remember you always in my prayers, asking that by God s will I may somehow at last succeed in coming to you. For I am longing to see you so that I may share with you some spiritual gift to strengthen you or rather so that we may be mutually encouraged by each other s faith, both yours and mine. Praise be to God always! إنجيل القد يس م ى 1:1-17 From the Holy Gospel according to Saint Matthew ال م ى الرسول»ك اب ميالد ي س وع الم س يح إ بن د او د إ ب ن إب ر اه يم: إ ب ر اه يم و ل د إ س حق إ س حق و ل د ي ع ق وب ي ع ق وب و ل د ي ه وذ ا وإ خ و ت ي ه وذ ا و ل د ف ار ص وز ار ح م ن ت ام ار ف ار ص و ل د ح ص ر ون ح ص ر ون و ل د آر ام آر ام و ل د ع م ين اد اب ع م ين اد اب و ل د ن ح ش ون ن ح ش و ن و ل د س م ون س م ون و ل د ب وع ز م ن ر اح اب ب وع ز و ل د ع وب يد م ن ر اع و ع وب يد و ل د ي س ى ي س ى و ل د د او د الم ك. د او د و ل د س ي م ان م ن ٱم ر أ ة أ و ر ي ا س ي م ان و ل د ر ح ب ع ام ر ح ب ع ام و ل د أ ب ي ا أ ب ي ا و ل د آس ا آس ا و ل د ي و اف اط ي و اف اط و ل د ي ور ام ي ور ام و ل د ع وز ي ا ع وز ي ا و ل د ي وت ام ي وت ام و ل د آح از آح از و ل د ح ز ي ا ح ز ي ا و ل د م ن س ى م ن س ى و ل د آم ون آم ون و ل د ي و ي ا ي و ي ا و ل د ي وك ن ي ا وإ خ و ت وكان الس ب ي إ لى ب اب ل. ب ع د الس ب ي إ لى ب اب ل ي وك ن ي ا و ل د ل يئيل ل يئيل و ل د ز ر ب اب ل ز ر ب اب ل و ل د أ ب يه ود أ بيه ود و ل د إ لي ا يم إ لي ا يم و ل د ع از ور ع از ور و ل د ص اد وق ص اد وق و ل د آخ يم آخ يم و ل د إ ل يه ود إ ل يه ود و ل د إ ل يع از ر إ ل يع از ر و ل د م ان م ان و ل د ي ع ق وب ي ع ق وب و ل د ي وس ر ج ل م ر ي م ال ي م ن ه ا و ل د ي س وع وه و ال ذي ي د ع ى الم س يح. ف ج ميع ا أ ج ي ال م ن إ ب ر اهيم إ لى د او د أ ر ب ع ة ع ش ر ج يال وم ن د او د إ لى س ب ي ب اب ل أ ر ب ع ة ع ش ر ج يال وم ن س ب ي ب اب ل إ لى الم س يح أ ر ب ع ة ع ش ر جيال. حقا وا أمان لج ميع ك م The Apostle writes An account of the genealogy of Jesus the Messiah, the son of David, the son of Abraham. Abraham was the father of Isaac, and Isaac the father of Jacob, and Jacob the father of Judah and his brothers, and Judah the father of Perez and Zerah by Tamar, and Perez the father of Hezron, and Hezron the father of Aram, and Aram the father of Aminadab, and Aminadab the father of Nahshon,and Nahshon the father of Salmon, and Salmon the father of Boaz by Rahab, and Boaz the father of Obed by Ruth, and Obed the father of Jesse, and Jesse the father of King David. And David was the father of Solomon by the wife of Uriah, and Solomon the father of Rehoboam, and Rehoboam the father of Abijah, and Abijah the father of Asaph, and Asaph the father of Jehoshaphat, and Jehoshaphat the father of Joram, and Joram the father of Uzziah, and Uzziah the father of Jotham, and Jotham the father of Ahaz, and Ahaz the father of Hezekiah, and Hezekiah the father of Manasseh, and Manasseh the father of Amos, and Amos the father of Josiah, and Josiah the father of Jechoniah and his brothers, at the time of the deportation to Babylon. And after the deportation to Babylon: Jechoniah was the father of Salathiel, and Salathiel the father of Zerubbabel, and Zerubbabel the father of Abiud, and Abiud the father of Eliakim, and Eliakim the father of Azor, and Azor the father of Zadok, and Zadok the father of Achim, and Achim the father of Eliud, and Eliud the father of Eleazar, and Eleazar the father of Matthan, and Matthan the father of Jacob, and Jacob the father of Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom Jesus was born, who is called the Messiah. So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David to the deportation to Babylon, fourteen generations; and from the deportation to Babylon to the Messiah, fourteen generations. This is the truth! Peace be with you.

End of the Year Donations Are you looking to make a charitable-end-ofyear tax contributions? Look no further Saint Maron Church needs you! The tax system in the USA is designed in such a way that greatly benefits non-profit organizations. Contributions given to the church, for instance, are considered tax deductible. The deductions help lower the individual s total gross unadjusted income. As a result, the donor, by making a donation to the church, helps the community as well as his/her cause by lowering his/her taxable income. The US tax system extends the privilege of making tax deductible contributions to all brackets of income earners. Scholarship Opportunities Hear Ye!! Hear Ye!! Are you 50 and young at heart?
