Essential Books in Greek and English to help parishioners follow Greek Orthodox Lent, Holy Week and Easter.
This collection brings greater understanding and devotion to the faithful through beautifully translated texts, bridging the gap between Greek and English for both native Greek speakers and those new to the faith.
The collection includes:
Lenten Prayers and Hymns: A comprehensive selection of prayers, including those recited during the Lenten services, with faithful English translations that retain the depth and reverence of the original Greek.
Holy Week Services: The complete texts for Holy Week, from Palm Sunday to Holy Saturday, along with explanations of the theological significance of each service, ensuring a deeper understanding of the sacred rituals.
Easter Services and Paschal Hymns: The book also includes the joyous hymns and prayers of the Paschal (Easter) services, celebrating Christ’s Resurrection in both languages.
Father L. Papadeas, of blessed memory, dedicated his life to the service of the Greek Orthodox Church and the promotion of Greek Orthodox traditions in America since 1942, and compiled a collection that includes prayers, hymns, and reflections specifically for the Lenten period, Holy Week, and the celebration of Pascha (Easter).
His important personal mission over a lifetime, was to support Greek Orthodox Christians in their spiritual journey, providing easy access to vital liturgical texts in both Greek and English, thus enriching the worship experience.
Father Papadeas personally authored translations to ensure the texts are both accurate and culturally meaningful. These bilingual books show the Original Greek on the left pages with the English translations on the right pages, specifically designed to serve as an invaluable resource for individuals and families wishing to actively participate in the Lenten season and the sacred services of Holy Week and Easter.
Sharing these essential prayers and hymns with the broader Greek Orthodox community, have helped unite the faithful by providing them with the opportunity to understand and fully engage in the liturgical practices that have sustained Christian faith for many centuries.
These bilingual books are now available for purchase through the official Patmos Press website, as well as from local Greek Orthodox Churches nationwide. A perfect way to stay connected during Church services by following along with these service books.
