"I am the voice of one crying in the wilderness, 'Make straight the way of the Lord,' as the prophet Isaiah said." John 1:23

HOLY WEDNESDAY
(Epistle - Jam 5:10-16 / Gospel - Mt 26:6-16)

INSTEAD OF THE NYMPHIOS (BRIDEGROOM) SERVICE, THE CHURCH TRADITIONALLY PERFORMS THE HOLY UNCTION SERVICE ON HOLY WEDNESDAY.

Behold the Bridegroom comes at midnight,
And blessed is the servant whom He shall find watching,
And again unworthy is the servant whom He shall find heedless.
Beware, therefore, O my soul, do not be weighed down with sleep,
Lest you be given up to death and lest you be shut out of the Kingdom.
But rouse yourself crying: Holy, Holy, Holy, are You, O our God!
Through the Theotokos have mercy on us!
