MID-PENTECOST: Happy Feast!

MID-PENTECOST: Happy Feast! May 13, 2009

Today marks the half way point on our journey from Pascha to Pentecost.

In the middle of the feast, O Saviour, fill my thirsting soul with the waters of godliness, as Thou didst cry unto all: If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink! O Christ God, Fountain of life, glory to Thee! (Troparion)

Christ God, the Creator and Master of all, cried to all in the midst of the feast of the law: Come and drink the water of immortality! We fall before Thee and faithfully cry: Grant us Thy bounties, for Thou art the Fountain of our life! (Kontakion)

So, let us cry:

Christ is Risen from the dead, trampling down death by Death … and upon those in the tombs bestowing Life!
