    April 2026

    When the Day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting.

    • A Liturgical Explanation for the Days of Holy Week

      "Having fulfilled the Forty Days... we ask to see the Holy Week of Thy passion." With these words sung at Vespers of Palm Friday, Lent comes to its end and we enter into the annual commemoration of Christ's suffering, death and resurrection.

    • The Meaning of Pascha

      The Resurrection must be our own Experience
      Brothers and sisters, our faith in Christ's resurrection and in the coming universal resurrection is not a delusion It is, on the contrary, our directly experienced spiritual knowledge.

    • Would today be a bad day to save a life?
