"Christ is risen from the dead,
trampling down death by death,
and upon those in the tombs
bestowing life."
— Paschal Troparion
Easter is not simply an ancient tradition. It is the proclamation that on this night, death was defeated — once and for all. The tomb was empty. Christ is alive. And this changes everything.
Whether you are Orthodox, Christian of another tradition, or simply curious — you are welcome. Come with a candle. Come with your questions. Come with your heart.
Our parish follows the Eastern Orthodox tradition. The Paschal service is sung in Church Slavonic and includes the Midnight Office, the Procession, Matins, and Divine Liturgy.
Orthodox Church of the Nativity of Christ.
