ChurchScripture readings
- Epistle: The Reading is from Acts 16:16-34
- Gospel: The Reading is from John 9:1-38
Today we recall the restoration of sight to the man who had been blind from birth, another healing which angered the Pharisees, for it took place on the Sabbath, involved clay and spit all of which broke the ritual laws of the Jews.
On Wednesday we will celebrate the Leavetaking of Pascha.
Next Thursday is Ascension of Our Lord, one of the 12 Major Feasts of the Orthodox Church, celebrated forty days after Pascha.
