Holy Ascension of Christ

May the Lord bless you all for your prayers and donations in support our parish!

From Volume 3 of the Evergetinos, p.67

Published by the Center for Traditionalist Orthodox Studies

Today the Virgin giveth birth unto the Transcendent One /

And the earth doth offer a cave to Him who is unapproachable /

Angels and shepherds give glory/

And the Magi journey with a star. /

For unto us a Child is born who is Pre-eternal God /

Kontakion of Nativity, Tone 3

We magnify Thee, O Christ the Giver of life,

Who for our sake now art baptized in the flesh by John,

in the waters of the Jordan.

Magnification of Theophany
