Sunday Services
Today is the Afterfeast of the Dormition of the Mother of God.
Our Divine Liturgy this morning will be served by Fr. Andrew at Family Camp in Riondel, and as a Readers – Typika service in the St. Aidan Orthodox Church in Cranbrook.
‘On the third day of the Afterfeast of the Dormition, the hymns at Vespers call upon us to “sing the praises of the pure and most holy Virgin.” She did not ascend to heaven in a chariot of fire, as did the Prophet Elias, but “He Who is truly the Sun of Righteousness” received her pure soul.’
