Today in the Liturgy for the Feast of the Dormition of the Theotokos, Metropolitan Joseph ordained Fr. Jason to the priesthood. This was a big day with the feast, the presence of the metropolitan, & Deacon Jason became Father Jason. The beauty of Orthodoxy keeps unveiling itself. https://t.co/GckPmpjhaC

Today marks the Feast Day of the Dormition of the Theotokos. We commemorate the day the Theotokos fell asleep to the Lord. We also celebrate the assumption of the body of the Theotokos into heaven. Together we praise the Theotokos and look to her for guidance in all we do. https://t.co/XjnwJN2QzM

Reminder the Apostles were miraculously gathered from the ends of the earth in order to be present at the repose & burial of the Mother of God. This is a 15th century icon from Novgorod depicting the Dormition of the Theotokos, showing the punishment of the blasphemer Athonius. https://t.co/J6XpeqSt9S
