About the chant:
Christ is Risen! Truly He is Risen!
This salvific message is proclaimed by each of us in our daily lives. However, it is also a
message that is proclaimed by the Church, that is, by all men and women, ordained and
lay, young and old. In this way, each time we proclaim the Resurrection of Christ, we
convey to the world a message of communion and solidarity with God and with the least
of our brethren. Our calling to charity, service, and love is even more pronounced during
this period of joy. After all, how can we ever proclaim the resurrection of Jesus Christ,
Who so loved the world that He humbled himself to the point of death (Phil 2: 8) if we don’t
first express our love for our brothers and sisters? (Cf. 1 John 4: 21).

Chant Text:
It is the day of Resurrection; let us be radiant for the festival, and let us
embrace one another. Let us say, brethren, even to those that hate us,
‘Let us forgive all things on the Resurrection’, and so let us cry,
‘Christ has risen from the dead: by death he has trampled on death,
and to those in the graves given life’ (Paschal Sticheron).

Then we went to Greece, and the Greeks led us to the edifices where they worship their God, and we knew not whether we were in heaven or on earth. For on earth there is no such splendour or such beauty, and we are at a loss how to describe it. We only know that God dwells there among men, and their service is fairer than the ceremonies of other nations. For we cannot forget that beauty.

How He Loves Us. He died for our sins, now He Is Risen. Glory be to God in the Highest as we pray for Peace for our world knowing that one day we will all touch the face of God.

Blessed Easter 2020! Greetings from the Netherlands.

[boratsagdiyev]

Let all the christians unite under the guidance of Our Holy Father, The King of Kings, and let's reclaim what God has given us, let us reclaim our land, our culture, our right to love Him. We all are the children of God, catholic, orthodox or protestant, we are all blessed by His Glory and Love. What happened with Notre-Dame should unite more all of us and give us another reason to fight together against the Evil of this World. Let us pray that the majestic Cathedral in Paris be restored to its Glory and that we will have our beautiful Europe back.


From a orthodox christian in Romania to all his brothers in Christ from around the world: Happy Easter! Christ has truly risen!

Glory to the Father, to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, now and forever and to the ages of ages, one God, Amen ☦️🙏
