May your prayers be illumined by the light of Christ and the candles we blessed today! 🕯️🕯️
“Rejoice, O Virgin Theotokos, full of grace: / from thee has shone the Sun of Righteousness, Christ our God, / enlightening those who sat in darkness. / Rejoice and be glad, O righteous Elder: / thou hast accepted in thine arms the Redeemer of our souls, // who grants us the Resurrection.”
