Christ the Saviour Welcomes His Eminence, Archbishop MARK During Holy Week - 04/26/2016

From Tuesday, April 26 – Wednesday, April 27th, the  communityof Christ the Saviour Orthodox Church in Harrisburg, PA welcomed His Eminence Archbishop Mark, as he led us in the Liturgy of the Pre-Sanctified Gifts on Tuesday and Wednesday; as well as  the Sacrament of Holy Unction on Great and Holy Wednesday, where we were joined by the faithful Holy Apostles Mission - interceding the Lord’s mercy, and healing of soul and body. Fr. Timothy Hojnicki offered a beautiful homily, which prepared each of us to realize the greatest healing that we could hope for is that of the heart, and the salvation of our souls!
 
Excerpt from the Third Prayer of Holy Unction
Yes, Lord, send forth from heaven your healing power; touch the body, quench the fever, calm the suffering and chase away every lurking infirmity. Be the physician of your servants; raise them up from their bed of pain and their couch of distress; give them to your Church safe and sound, well-pleasing to you and doing your will.
