The tomb of Christ before the service
PASCHA! Christ is risen!

 

(34 images)

Censing the tomb
"Do not lament me, O Mother..."
"... for I shall arise..."
Removing the winding sheet from the tomb to the altar.
The church, silent, and soon to be dark, awaiting the New Light of Pascha.
The procession begins.
"Your Resurrections, O Christ our Savior,..."
"... the angels in heaven sing..."
"Enable us on earth..."
"... to glorify You in purity of heart."
The Gospel of the Resurrection outside the doors of the church.
The Church, illumined, before the Paschal service begins
"Christ is risen from the dead..."
Banging on the doors of the church with the Cross to open them for the celebration of the Resurrection
Bell-ringers scarcely able to contain their enthusiasm
"Christ is risen!"
Deacon Michael, too, "Christ is risen!"
The catechetical oration of St John Chrysostom (participatory version)
The Little Entrance
The Epistle of Pascha
The Gospel of Pascha
The Great Entrance
The altar during the Anaphora
Blessing Pascha baskets
Feast!
Christ is risen!
Indeed He is risen!
