APOLYTIKION
OF SAINT NECTARIOS
The offspring of Silyvria*
and the guardian of Aegina* the true friend of virtue who appeared in the
last years. O Nectarios* we faithful honor you* as a godly servant of
Christ, * for you pour forth healing* of every kind for those who piously
cry out. * Glory to Christ who has glorified you; * Glory to Him who has
shown wonders in you; * Glory to Him who works healing through you for
all.

Sunday of Saint Mary of egypt
The feast day of Saint Mary
of Egypt is April 1, the day of her repose, however the Orthodox Church
also commemorates the Saint on the Fifth Sunday of Lent. As a Sunday of
Great Lent, the commemoration is celebrated with the Divine Liturgy of
Saint Basil the Great, which is preceded by a Matins (Orthros) service. A
Great Vespers is conducted on Saturday evening.
Scripture readings for the
Fifth Sunday of Lent are the following: At the Orthros (Matins): The
prescribed weekly Gospel reading. At the Divine Liturgy: Hebrews 9:11-14;
Mark 10:32-45.
Saint Mary of Egypt is also
commemorated on the Thursday before the Fifth Sunday of Lent, when her
life is read during the Great Canon of Saint Andrew of Crete. A canon in
her honor is read at the end of each Ode. In parish churches the service
and the canon are most often conducted on Wednesday evening.
