Great and Holy Week begins this Palm Sunday, March 24. This week is called “great” because this is the week when the central events of our salvation are commemorated. The suffering, death and resurrection of the Lord are remembered and the Church comes together in worship and prayer to celebrate the extreme lov- ing kindness of our God. This week is called “holy” because the Christ, the Holy One of God acts for our good and our salvation to make us holy, a sacred and unique people who are adopted as sons and daughters of God. On Monday of Holy Week, March 25, Confessions will be heard from 6:30pm to 7:30pm On Great and Holy Wednesday, March 27, the Church remembers the anointing of the Lord at Bethany by the sinful woman in preparation for his burial and the betrayal of the Lord by Judas. This sinful woman, not the kind of woman who would have attended Temple, nor would she find herself welcomed in the church, un- derstands Christ in a way that Judas does not, for he is in the Gospel lesson plotting to betray Christ. Judas is seeking to make money by betraying Christ; the woman is giving her money to honor the Lord. She under- stands the love she has freely received from Christ. The Sacrament of Anointing is offered tonight for the healing of soul and body and for forgiveness of sins. (It is a good thing to go to Confession before receiving the Sacrament of Anointing.) At the conclusion of the Service, we are anointed with oil, and the grace of God, which heals infirmities of soul and body, is called down upon each person. As Christ was anointed in prepa- ration for his burial so we are anointed as we prepare to celebrate the events which heal and bring us God’s forgiveness. The Service is at 6:30pm in the church. On Great and Holy Thursday, March 28, the Church commemorates the giving of the gift of the Holy Eucharist and the washing of the feet of the Apostles by the Lord. The foot washing reminds us that the Lord, through who all things were created, whose throne is in heaven bows down like a servant to wash the feet of those he created and give all Christians an example of humility. The Savior gives his body and blood to his Church as food as on the cross he gives his body and blood for the salvation and reconciliation of the world. Those who are already baptized and have prepared to enter the fullness of the faith in the Catholic Church are confirmed and given the body and blood of the Lord for the first time. After the Liturgy the body and blood of the Lord are taken from the church to the small chapel and reserved there for Holy Communion on Good Friday. The faithful are invited to pray before the Holy Gifts as the Lord invited the Apostles in Gethsemane during his agony “Stay here and keep watch with me.” (Mt 26:38). The Liturgy begins at 7:00pm in the church. On Great and Holy Friday, March 29, we remember the suffering and death of our Lord God and Savior Jesus Christ. We hear the passion of the Lord proclaimed in the Holy Gospel. We pray the solemn prayers for the whole world, the Church and the needs of all people. We come before the cross of the Lord to vener- ate it with signs of love and devotion, for by the cross, joy has come into the whole world. We come before the altar of the Lord’s sacrifice to partake of the body and blood of Christ so our hunger and thirst for the life he gives us might be satisfied and we may be healed. The Liturgy is at 7:00 PM in the Church. PALM SUNDAY OF THE PASSION OF THE LORD The Church is open all day, from noon to three, the Passion Gospels will be read with prayers. On this day, we also commemorate the burial of the Lord, with the procession to the tomb, the placing of the shroud in the tomb and veneration of the shroud. All are invited to bring flowers to place at the tomb. The Service is at 10:30pm in the church. On Great and Holy Saturday, March 30, the Church keeps memory of the descent of the Lord to the dead. In this time when the Lord’s body was in the tomb, his soul went to visit the souls of Adam and Eve and all the just ones who awaited his coming. He frees them from the place of waiting in anticipation of his resurrec- tion. A short Service will be offered at 10:00am in the Church. The Great Vigil of the Lord’s Passover. As night falls the Church gathers in darkness to celebrate the Great Vigil of the Resurrection. The new fire is blessed and Christ who scatters the darkness of sin and death is acclaimed as our risen God. We hear the accounts of how God saved his people in the Old Testament as a gift of hope and promise even before the Lord’s coming. We hear the joyful news of the Gospel of the Res- urrection, “Why do you seek the living one among the dead, he is not here, he is risen!” (Mt.

  • ORTHODOX HOLY WEEK Explanation, Prayers, and Scripture Readings
    ORTHODOX HOLY WEEK Explanation, Prayers, and Scripture Readings OUR JOURNEY TO THE CROSS AND THE EMPTY TOMB “… that I may know Him and the power of His resurrection, and may share His sufferings, becoming like Him in his death, that if possible I may attain the resurrection from the dead.” ~ Philippians 3:10-11 We Christians know that the death and resurrection of our Lord Jesus is the defining event of the entire history of creation. Two- thousand years ago, in a small city in a backwater province of the Roman Empire, God came to visit His people. Holy Week is partly a historical reenactment of those days. But much more than history, Holy Week is prayer, worship, and our mystical participation in the life, death, and resurrection of our Lord, who still lives and reigns in us and in His Church. Holy Week takes us through the hope and expectation of Palm Sunday, the dark days of His passion and crucifixion, the glorious joy of the discovery of the empty tomb, and His resurrection from the dead. It is a drama like no other, and our great God who loves mankind invites us each year to participate in it with Him! The purpose of this booklet is to provide you with a brief explanation of each of the days of Orthodox Holy Week. Starting with St. Lazarus Saturday and ending with Pascha Sunday, I have provided you with (1) an icon of the day, (2) a short explanation of the events and how we observe them in church, (3) some of the key hymns and prayers for each day, and (4) Scripture readings.

  • HOLY WEEK at ST. NICHOLAS
    HOLY WEEK at ST. NICHOLAS The services of Holy Week transform us into eyewitnesses and direct participants in the awesome events of the Passion and Resurrection of Jesus Christ. In readings taken from both Old and New Testaments, in hymns, processions, and liturgical commemoration, we see the fulfillment of the Messianic prophecies and the mighty acts by which God Himself, in the person of Jesus Christ, grants us forgiveness for our sins and rescues us from the pain of eternal death. This can be the most spiritually rewarding week of the year if we give ourselves over to the celebration of it. A full participation will require schedules to be reworked—everyone is encouraged to consider taking off at least the first half of Holy Thursday and all of Holy Friday for a once-a- year transforming experience (work/school religious observance letters are available). Through the Divine Services, we walk with Christ from His raising of Lazarus, through the final week of His Earthly ministry, to His Passion, Death, and Resurrection! LAZARUS SATURDAY: Our Lord raises Lazarus from the dead, “confirming the universal resurrection.” The crowds respond to this miracle by welcoming Christ in His triumphal entry into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday, but this welling up of support convinces the religious leaders to plot Jesus’ death. Our Lord is welcomed into Jerusalem with cries of “Hosanna!” and we the faithful join their cry and celebrate or Lord’s coming as the Conqueror, though not of the Romans or other earthly powers, but of the power of Death itself. Blessed Palms are distributed to be held by the faithful and we process around the Church, joining the crowds at the first Palm Sunday.

  • The Betrayal and Passion of Our Lord (PDF)
    The Betrayal and Passion of Our Lord Holy Friday Matins With the Passion Gospels and Royal Hours Introduction by the Very Rev. Paul Lazor When the Lord was going to His voluntary Passion, He said to the Apostles on the way, “Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man shall be delivered up, as it is written of Him." Come, therefore, let us also go with Him, purified in mind. Let us be crucified with Him and die through Him to the pleasures of this life. Then we shall live with Him and hear Him say: "I go no more to the earthly Jerusalem to suffer, but to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God, I shall raise you up to the Jerusalem on high in the Kingdom of Heaven." (Matins of Great and Holy Monday) This verse from the Matins of Great and Holy Monday serves as an excellent introduction to Holy Week, the high point in the yearly liturgical life of the Orthodox Christian. Beginning with the evening of Palm Sunday he is called upon to accompany Christ along the road of His voluntary passion and death. As a fellow traveler with Christ, a person, as the above verse indicated, must abandon the pleasures of this world. He must be purified in his entire being. He must fervently seek union with his Lord and Savior. The life of the Church actualizes these necessities in the Sacraments of Confession and Communion. Only after being purified and forgiven in the Sacrament of Confession and firmly united with Christ in the Sacrament of Holy Communion can the Orthodox believer approach the hallowed ground of accompanying Christ in the great hour of His work for the redemption of all.
