The Orthodox Church celebrates several Feast Days throughout the year, to commemorate events in the life of Christ and other Saints who now worship Him in Heaven. This part of our blog focuses on describing these Feast Days and their importance in the life of the Church.
In the Orthodox Church, we celebrate the Feast of the Dormition (or falling asleep) of the Mother of God (Theotokos) and Ever-Virgin Mary.
Learn about the feast day of the Transfiguration and its profound theological implications for understanding Christ’s nature.
In anticipation of the Nativity of Our Lord, we must spiritually prepare not only ourselves, but also our children for this glorious Feast!
If we are to call Thanksgiving a holiday (“holy day”), it must be more than remembering the pilgrims and gorging ourselves on roasted turkey.
On the Great and Holy Feast of Pascha, Orthodox Christians celebrate the life-giving Resurrection of our Lord and God and Savior Jesus Christ.
The Sunday before Great and Holy Pascha (Easter in the West), the Orthodox Church celebrates one of its most joyous feasts: Palm Sunday!
