The Fifth Sunday of Luke: Greek Orthodox Divine Liturgy of Saint John Chrysostom 11/03/2024

LIVE High Definition (HD) broadcast of the Greek Orthodox Divine Liturgy of Saint John Chrysostom commemorating the Fifth Sunday of Luke.

The Greek Orthodox Church interprets Luke 16:19-31, the parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus, as a profound lesson on compassion, humility, and the consequences of our actions. The parable highlights the consequences of neglecting the poor and suffering, as the rich man is condemned for his self-centeredness. The reading emphasizes the need for repentance and a turn towards God, even in adversity. While warning of eternal judgment, it also offers hope for salvation through faith and good works.

Our Eastern Orthodox service is conducted mainly in English and Greek, and LIVE is streamed from Saint Mark Greek Orthodox Church in Boca Raton, Florida.
