Description:
Far from being merely a "vacation from fasting," the Pascha season is a time that, properly understood, can greatly enrich our faith. During the Pascha season, we celebrate and rejoice in our Lord's Resurrection and we prepare for the great feast of the Holy Spirit descending upon us. Vassilios Papavassiliou brings his liturgical and devotional insights and warm, accessible style to bear on the services of Pascha, helping the reader enter fully into this most rich and intense period of the Christian year.
