Christ is risen! Truly He is risen!

Χριστός Άνέστη!  Άληθώς Άνέστη!

 

 

Blessed Name's Day!

The clergy and the faithful of the Holy Diocese of Los Angeles and the West, extend their prayers and love to our Father in Christ, His Grace, Bishop JOSEPH on the occasion of his Holy Name's Day (St. Joseph of Arimathea, Second Sunday after Pascha; May 11). May God grant him many years as our Father and Chief Shepherd.

Greetings may be sent to Sayidna through the Chancery Section of the Website.

 

 

 

 

 

Commemoration of the Myrrh-Bearing Women, Pious Joseph of Arimathea & Righteous Nicodemus
(May 11)

Verily, the angel came to the tomb and said to the ointment-bearing women, the ointment is meet for the dead, but Christ is shown to be remote from corruption. But cry ye, The Lord is risen, granting the world the Great Mercy. (Apolytikion in Tone 2)

Thought for the Day

“'To know Him and the power of His Resurrection' (Phil 3:10) consists in this movement by which Christ descends into our very depths to raise us up into the light of Life. This is the movement of baptism, descent and rising up (Rom 6:3-4), with all the spiritual realism that the power of the Spirit will realize within us day after day in our personal lives." -– His Beatitude, Patriarch IGNATIUS IV
