Great and Holy Thursday - 04/09/26
On Great and Holy Thursday, April 9th, the faithful of Christ the Saviour celebrated a Vesperal Divine Liturgy in commemoration of the institution of the Holy Eucharist at the Last Supper.
Later that evening, we welcomed His Eminence Archbishop Mark, who led us in the reading of the 12 Passion Gospels.
(Troparion) When the glorious disciples were enlightened at the washing of their feet before supper, then the impious Judas was darkened ailing with avarice, and to the lawless judges he betrayed Thee, the Righteous Judge. Behold, O lover of money, this man because of avarice hanged himself. Flee from the greedy soul which dared such things against the Master! O Lord who art good towards all men, glory to Thee!
