Pascha 2006

Christ is Risen! Indeed He is Risen! Христос Воскрес! Воістину Воскрес! Paschal celebration commenced this year at 11:30 PM on Saturday starting with the Midnight Office. The service was followed by the Paschal Matins and Divine liturgy. After the divine liturgy, pascha baskets filled with meats and dairy products and other festal delights were blessed. Parishioners then broke the fast together in the parish hall.
