The Serbian Orthodox Church to her spiritual children at Pascha, 2020
+IRINEJ
By the Grace of God
Orthodox
Archbishop of Pec, Metropolitan of Belgrade Karlovci and Serbian
Patriarch, with all the Hierarchs of the Serbian Orthodox Church to all
the clergy, monastics, and all the sons and daughters of our Holy
Church: grace, mercy and peace from God the Father, and our Lord Jesus
Christ, and the Holy Spirit, with the joyous Paschal greeting:
Christ is Risen!
This is the day of Resurrection; let us be illumined by the feast!
Let us embrace each other joyously! Let us say even to those
who hate us: Let us forgive all by the Resurrection;
and so let us cry: Christ is risen from the dead,
trampling down death by death,
and upon those in the tombs bestowing life!
[The Stichera of Pascha from Matins]
