Again on the calendar
Day of the Presentation of the Lord!
What happened on that
Blessed day and hour? What has mankind celebrated for centuries?
On this day, the Mother of God, following the Old Testament law, first brought Jesus to the Jerusalem temple to dedicate him to God.
They were met by the righteous elder Simeon. According to legend, he had a prophecy that a baby would be born - a son of God who would save the World.
God-Receiver Simeon took the God-Infant in his arms and blessed him, prophesying about the Savior of all people.
The prophetess Anna was also there. She also recognized the Savior and spoke to everyone about him.
On that day, the World found the Messiah!

Congratulations in your own words to the Meeting!

Feast of the Presentation of the Lord!
What does it mean?
Where does it originate?
The Slavic word "meeting" is translated as "meeting".
This is very allegorical.
Meeting mankind, in the person of the righteous elder Simeon, with God!
After all, in the person of his son Christ, the Most High opened himself to people. I opened my love and kingdom to them.
With a Bright Feast!
With the Presentation of the Lord!

Congratulations to the Presentation of the Lord!

On one of the days of February, we celebrate a bright Christian holiday.
The Presentation of the Lord.
In Orthodoxy, this is February 15.
In Catholicism, February 2.
But any Christian knows the importance events that took place many centuries ago.
Unforgettable in the souls of believers is that special day when Mary first brought her newborn son Jesus to the temple for blessing. And, recognized by the prophets, Christ was called the Savior of the World and all people!
Congratulations, parishioners!
