The Feast of Feasts


Come, on this auspicious day of the Resurrection,
let us partake of the new fruit of the vine
of divine gladness and of the Kingdom of Christ,
praising Him as God unto the ages.

(Hymn of the Canon of Holy Pascha)





As we gather to celebrate this great Feasts of Feasts, and together we experience the supreme joy of Holy Pascha, we offer our praise to God for His abundant grace and for the triumph of our Savior Jesus Christ over the power of sin and death.  In a magnificent revelation of His invincible might, our Risen Lord has defeated all that corrupts and destroys our human existence.  Through His compassionate sacrifice and Holy Resurrection, He has reconciled us to our Creator.  By trampling down death by death and dispelling its darkness with the light of true life, He leads us to salvation and eternal communion with God.
