Christian Orthodox Great and Holy Week at All Saints of Lincolnshire Parish

Every day during Great Week we were pleased to offer a number of services, building up to Great and Holy Pascha on 8th April.

These services included: the Service of Holy Unction, or ‘Blessing of the Oil of Anointing’ on Great Wednesday; the Epitaphion Service on Great Friday, where the body of our Crucified Saviour is taken down from the Cross; and the Earthquake Divine Liturgy on Great Saturday, where the Immortal Soul of Jesus Christ as God destroys the power of death and breaks down the gates of Hades.
