7:59 AM Today's saint | |
Synaxis of the Most Holy Theotokos. "Yesterday, together with the Angels, the Magi and the Shepherds, we offered our worship to God made man, and born a little child for our Salvation; and today we rightly pay homage to His Mother, the All Holy Virgin Mary. The Church sets her before us in the cave beside her Son as the new Eve, the first and pre-eminent representative of the renewed human race, chosen and prepared by God throughout all generations, for the fulfilment of the Great Mystery of His Incarnation." (Synaxarion) Here we follow the pattern of most major Feasts: on the day following feast , we honor those who also played a part in the accomplishment of God's plan. source: http://www.abbamoses.com | |
