Our Journey to PASCHA!

"The Journey to Pascha" refers to the period of preparation leading up to the celebration of Pascha, also known as Easter, in the Eastern Orthodox Christian tradition. This journey typically begins with the season of Great Lent, a time of fasting, prayer, and repentance lasting approximately 40 days (excluding Sundays) before Pascha.

​

During this journey, Eastern Orthodox Christians focus on spiritual disciplines such as prayer, fasting, almsgiving, and attending church services. The goal is to prepare oneself spiritually to fully participate in the joyous celebration of Pascha, which commemorates the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

​

Throughout Great Lent, there are various services and traditions observed, including the Liturgy of the Presanctified, which is celebrated on Wednesdays and Fridays. The journey culminates in Holy Week, which includes services such as the Bridegroom Matins, the Service of the Twelve Gospels on Holy Thursday, and the Vigil on Holy Saturday leading into Pascha.

​

Overall, "The Journey to Pascha" encompasses a time of spiritual reflection, repentance, and anticipation as Eastern Orthodox Christians prepare to celebrate the central event of our faith, the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
