On Thursday, May 2nd, our community commemorated the Institution of the Eucharist with the Vesperal Divine Liturgy of St. Basil the Great. We also welcomed Dn. Joseph Kreta, who is visiting our community through Pascha and assisted at all of the Divine Services! During this Liturgy, the reserve Sacrament was prepared, and the faithful enjoyed the “Masters hospitality” through the partaking of His Body and Blood.

Holy Thursday Theotokian Hymn

Come, O faithful, let us enjoy the Master’s hospitality, the Banquet of Immortality! In the upper chamber with uplifted minds, let us receive the exalted words of the Word, Whom we magnify!
