☦ Eastern Orthodox 40 Days of Pascha/'Prayers for Animals'

2. It is strange how we are participants in streaming liturgical services.

Our priest in March and into April gave homilies, teaching and encouragement from his back yard deck! It was pretty cool.

We are the temple of the Holy Spirit. The church made 'without hands'.

We have been communing in spirit, not in close proximity with one another in the church proper as usual.

I gathered bits and pieces that the Pope offered.

We were told by our 'Shepherds': this Easter/Pascha was not the one expected, but the one given.

The Orthodox await/anticipate the resurrection of the dead and the Life of the world to come. The Parousia, The Second Coming.

It's a horrible thing what has set itself upon humanity. In the midst of it though, one catches evidence/glimpses of The Almighty.
