This DVD offers the viewer and opportunity to witness portions of the service leading to Orthodox Christian Pascha.
Originally broadcast nationally on the ABC Television Network, the one hour program highlights Holy & Great Week, focusing on the deeply moving and ancient services tha recount the Gospel narrative leading to the death and resurrection of Christ.
A beautiful narration explains the symbolism and relevance of the services and guides us through the week.
Videotaped at Greek Orthodox Churches in New York, including the magnificent Archdiocesan Cathedral of the Holy Trinity, the climax of the program is the procession to the exterior of the Cathedral on Holy Saturday where Archbishop Demetrios of America proclaims the Gospel of the Resurrection and leads the faithful in the joyous hymn - "Christ is Risen!"
