Christ is Risen! ??????? ????????!

April 19, 2009 Featured

We welcome everybody to continue praying with us as we celebrate the joy of what we Orthodox call “bright Week,” the festal week that follows Pascha Sunday, the Feast of Feasts in the Orthodox Church–the Day of Christ’s Holy Resurrection.  On this week, we offer the following services:

Bright Monday (April 20): Divine Liturgy, 9am

Bright Wednesday (April 22): Bright Vespers, 6:30pm

Bright Thursday (April 23): Divine Liturgy, 7am

Bright Friday (April 24): Bright Vespers, 6:30pm

Bright Saturday (April 25): Divine Liturgy 9am*

*Our Liturgy on Bright Saturday will be served half in Church Slavonic and half in English as a service to our Slavic brethren.  We invite all Russian, Ukrainians, and Slavs of all nationalities to pray with us and keep the glorious feast of Pascha using not only English, but also a prayer language that they understand.

Christ is risen from the dead,
trampling down death by death,
and upon those in the tombs bestowing life!
