Bookstore, Author at Joy of All Who Sorrow Orthodox Church (OCA)

Really great service today 😊. Fr. John told us a story about a miracle that happened to him while abroad. He was able to connect with another priest speaking different languages with him. Apparently, he was able to translate and understand a foreign language through the Holy Spirit. He wasn’t able to retain this ability, but remains to this day – amazed that he was able to do it when it happened. Pretty awesome 👏🏻

Orthodox Easter ~ April 16, 2023

Pascha (Greek: Πάσχα), also called Easter, is the feast of the Resurrection of the Lord. Pascha is a transliteration of the Greek word, which is itself a transliteration of the Aramaic pascha, from the Hebrew pesach meaning Passover. A minority of English-speaking Orthodox prefer the English word “Pasch.” Click this link to view this years video: Pascha 2023
