Are you committed to God? Do you love Him? Then enjoy this beautiful, radiant festival. Are you His thankful and grateful slave? Then enter rejoicing in the joy of the Lord. Are you fatigued with the labor of fasting? Now is the time to enjoy your reward.'” - PASCHAL HOMILY OF ST. JOHN CHRYSOSTOM, April 12, 2026-

For today as from a bridal chamber Christ has shown forth from the tomb and filled the women with joy, saying: Proclaim the glad tidings to the apostles. - PASCHAL VERSES.
