I hope and pray that after the Anastasi Resurrection service, and we hear the words “Christos is Risen” proclaimed, that ALL the faithful will do the right thing and stay for the Resurrection Divine Liturgy as a family.

Let us ALL make the commitment to live “Holy Week” and not merely “observe” it.  Let us ALL make the commitment and the preparations to receive Holy Communion at the Paschal Divine Liturgy.  I realize that the Liturgy will be late, but does that really matter when we consider what our Lord sacrificed on the cross for our Salvation?  The question is, are we true Orthodox Christians, or merely Orthodox in name only, and merely going through the motions.
 
Always remember, our actions -- at times -speak much louder than our words.

HOSANNA!
Blessed is he who comes
In the name of the Lord!
Mark 11:9b NIV
