Worship: 12 Noon

Glory to You!
You built your cross as a bridge over death, so that departed souls might pass from the realm of death to the realm of life.
Your murderers handled your life like farmers: they sowed it like grain deep in the earth, for it to spring up and raise with itself a multitude of people.
Come, let us offer Christ the great, universal sacrifice of our love, and pour out before him our richest hymns and prayers.
Ephrem the Syrian (307-363)

The whole earth keeps silence because the King is asleep. The earth trembled and is still because God has fallen asleep in the flesh, and has raised up all who have slept ever since the world began. God has died in the flesh and hell trembles with fear. God has gone in search for our first parent, as for a lost sheep. Greatly desiring to visit those who live in darkness and in the shadow of death, God has gone to free from sorrow the captives Adam and Eve, He who is both God and the son of Eve.
