The First Week of Great Lent in Holy Cross Monastery

On the first week of Great Lent, the full cycle of Great Lenten services were served in Holy Cross Monastery. On Wednesday and Friday, Liturgies of the Presanctified Gifts were served, led by the monastery’s rector, His Grace George, Bishop of Mayfield, co-served by monastery clergy.

On Sunday, March 4, on the Triumph of Orthodoxy, a Hierarchal Liturgy was celebrated, after which His Grace performed the Rite of Orthodoxy. Visitors to the official diocesan website can view pictures of the first week of Great Lent at Holy Cross Monastery below.
