About The Event
Festal Orthros: 8:30 – 9:30 AM
Festal Divine Liturgy: 9:30 – 11:00 AM
The Orthodox Church commemorates the Entrance of the Theotokos into the Temple, one of the Twelve Great Feasts. This feast celebrates the dedication of the Virgin Mary to God at a young age, when her parents, Joachim and Anna, presented her to the Temple in Jerusalem. It prefigures Mary's role as the living temple who would later bear Christ, the Incarnate God.
