Pascha
"Thy Resurrection, O Christ our Savior..."
"...the angels in heaven sing..."
"...enable us on earth to glorify Thee..."
"...in purity of heart."
"You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified."
"He is not here. He is risen from the dead."
The church was full for the celebration of the Resurrection.
"CHRIST IS RISEN!! INDEED HE IS RISEN!!"
The winding-sheet remains on the altar until Ascension.
"CHRISTOS VOSKRESE! VOISTINU VOSKRESE!"
"O death, where is your sting? O hell, where is your victory?" (Sermon of St. John Chrysostom)
"You, and all Orthodox Christians, may the Lord God remember in His Kingdom..."
The Artos is blessed at the end of the liturgy.
Blessing of the Baskets.
Our Temple.
Vespers - "Unless I see, I will not believe..."
An Easter Egg hunt was held for the children after Vespers.
Eggs are found in the strangest places!
The joy of Pascha!
