Holy Saturday Matins

May 3 @ 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm

Also known as the “Lamentations Service,” we join the Mother of God at the tomb as she weeps for her Son. Christ’s body, symbolically in the form of the epitaphios or plaschanitsa, is carried around the church in solemn procession. This is the Lord’s funeral service. Yet even in this dark hour, we see the first signs of hope as we begin to sing hymns of the Resurrection.
