Orthros and Divine Liturgy for the Holy Martyr Agathonicus and the Holy Martyr Lupus

Today marks the Feast of the Dormition of the Theotokos, the Falling Asleep of the Mother of Our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

The Mother of God does not depart from us, but draws nearer. We commemorate her falling-asleep as a passage rather than an ending. The Panagia shows us what it means to pass through death into eternal life.

“May our celebrations of her Holy Dormition be a renewal of our own journey heavenward,” His Eminence Archbishop Elpidophoros said.
