BATH, PA [DOEPA COMMUNICATIONS]
On Sunday, March 9, 2025, the Triumph of Orthodoxy was celebrated throughout the Diocese of Philadelphia and Eastern Pennsylvania.
Troparion
We venerate Thy most pure image, O Good One, and ask forgiveness of our transgressions, O Christ our God. Of Thine own will Thou wast pleased to ascend the Cross in the flesh and deliver Thy creatures from bondage to the Enemy. Therefore, with thankfulness we cry aloud to Thee: “Thou hast filled all with joy, O our Savior, by coming to save the world!”
Kontakion
No one could describe the Word of the Father, but when He took flesh from thee, O Theotokos, He accepted to be described, and restored the fallen image to its former state by uniting it to divine beauty. We confess and proclaim our salvation in words and images!
Synodikon
This is the Faith of the Apostles!
This is the Faith of the Fathers!
This is the Faith of the Orthodox!
This is the Faith which has established the Universe!
