The holy night of Pascha. We had pilgrims from Egypt, from Greece, and from Russia. There were many Russian children, a new development for this ancient monastery.
Νυνὶ δὲ Χριστὸς ἐγήγερται ἐκ νεκρῶν, ἀπαρχὴ τῶν κεκοιμημένων ἐγένετο.
But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the firstfruits of them that slept.
1 Corinthians 15:20
Oh yes, there were so many lovely children tonight.!
Was so beautiful
Wishing you and all at St. Catherine’s a blessed Easter. Fidel and Brook
¡Cristo ha resucitado, allelluia!
It was so nice the language you were reading Father Justin..
Spanish?
I lived in Chile until I was eight. At the Agape Vespers, I read the Gospel in Spanish.
Christ is risen!
