Altar Mosaic – St. Sophia Orthodox Church, Canada
Greetings on Great and Holy Thursday!
Let no fear separate you from Me… Do this in remembrance of Me.
Of Thy Mystical Supper, O Son of God, accept me today as a communicant; for I will not speak of Thy Mystery to Thine enemies; nor like Judas will I give Thee a kiss; but like the thief will I confess Thee: Remember me, O Lord, when Thou comest into Thy Kingdom.
Thursday evening, the Twelve Passion Gospels are read aloud, and The Wise Thief is sung.
May we, wherever we are… particularly during pandemic isolation, blossom forth through the efforts of repentance, love, hope and faith in God’s Mercy.
Although these are trying times… This is just for now.
