Annunciation Day every Sunday
-
Loved this quote from St. Justin the Martyr in this morning’s “Daily Lives” reading:
Blessed Annunciation feast to all!Every Divine Liturgy is a new Annunciation, since the One, Holy Catholic and Apostolic Orthodox Church stands in the Most Immaculate Theotokos’ place. While the Body of the church — through the mouth of the Celebrant Priest — says, “Send down Thy Holy Spirit upon us,” he repeats, in a way, the Ever-Virgin’s words: “Behold the handmaiden of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word,” and the Annunciation of the Theotokos of the Church is officiated.
