Transfiguration of our lord
The Feast of The Transfiguration of Our Lord, God, and Savior Jesus Christ is celebrated on August 6
Liturgies:
Friday, August 05 - Festal Vespers at 7:00 pm
Saturday, August 06 - Typika at 9:00 am
The Transfiguration of Our Lord, God, and Saviour Jesus Christ is which Christ Jesus, beloved only-begotten Son of the eternal Father, manifested his glory in the presence of the holy Apostles Peter, James, and John, with the Law and the prophets bearing witness in the persons of Moses and Elijah. This was done so that, while sharing the servile humility of our stat he might intimate our glorious restoration through grace. Thus, it might be announced to the ends of the earth that the image of God, in which humanity was created, even as it was corrupted in Adam, would be restored in Christ.
Troparion (Tone 7):
You were transfigured on the mountain, O Christ our God, revealing as much of Your glory to Your disciples as they could behold. Through the prayers of the Theotokos, let Your everlasting light also shine upon us sinners, O giver of Light, glory to You!
Kontakion (Tone 7):
You were transfigured on the mountain, O Christ our God, and Your disciples beheld as much of Your glory as they could bear, that when they would see You willingly crucified, they would understand that You suffered willingly, so they would preach to the world that You are truly the radiance of the Father.
