  • From Spiritual Blindness to Spiritual Sight | Sunday of the Blind Man Sermon
    May 18 2026

    In this sermon for the Sunday of the Blind Man, Fr. Alexandros Pretorian reflects on the Gospel account of Christ healing the man born blind and reveals its deeper spiritual meaning for our lives today.

    Through the healing miracle, we are reminded that true sight is not only physical, but spiritual. Christ opens the eyes of the heart, leading us from confusion, darkness, and separation from God into truth, faith, and communion with Him.

    This sermon explores: • The difference between physical sight and spiritual vision • How pride and unbelief can blind the soul • The courage of the blind man’s confession of faith • Christ as the Light of the world • How we can grow spiritually through repentance, prayer, and humility

    Presented by Fr. Alexandros Pretorian at St. Nectrios Greek Orthodox Church in Roslindale, Massachusetts.

  • Sunday of The Paralytic-The power of the Only Physician
    May 17 2026

    In this bilingual sermon (Greek and English) Fr. Alexandros Pretorian helps us to understand the significance of our Lord's teaching on the Sunday of the Paralytic; the fourth Sunday of Pascha (Easter) in the Eastern Orthodox Church. It is part of the 50-day celebration leading up to Pentecost, during which the Church focuses on the divinity, miracles, and saving power of Jesus Christ.

    The day takes its name and central theme from the Gospel account of Christ healing the paralyzed man at the Pool of Bethesda.

    Christ as the Only Physician: The feast highlights that Christ does not need a pool, an angel, or human intervention to save. He is the ultimate Physician of souls and bodies, whose voice alone carries the power to heal and restore life.
