BATH, PA [DOEPA COMMUNICATIONS]

Joyous Feast! S'pradznikom!

The Feast of The Feast of the Elevation of the Precious and Life-Giving Cross was celebrated on Saturday, September 14, throughout the Diocese of Eastern Pennsylvania.

"O Lord, save Thy people, and bless Thine inheritance. Grant victories to the Orthodox Christians over their adversaries. And by virtue of Thy Cross, preserve Thy habitation!"

"As Thou wast voluntarily raised upon the cross for our sake, grant mercy to those who are called by Thy Name, O Christ God; make all Orthodox Christians glad by Thy power, granting them victories over their adversaries, by bestowing on them the Invincible trophy, Thy weapon of Peace!"

"Before Thy Cross we bow down and worship, O Master, and Thy holy Resurrection we glorify!"

Glory to God for all things!
