Great and Holy Monday


Troparion: Behold, the Bridegroom is coming in the middle of the night.  Blessed is the servant He shall find awake.  But the one He finds neglectful will not be worthy of Him.  Beware therefore, O my soul!  Do not fall into a deep slumber, lest you be delivered to death and the door of the Kingdom be closed to you.  Watch instead, and cry out: Holy, Holy, Holy are You, O God.

Through the intercession of the Mother of God, have mercy on us.

Matins Canon Ode 8:  While going to his Passion, the Lord said to those whom he loved: Everyone will know that you are my disciples if you keep my commandments;  be at peace among yourselves and with all others;  be humble in your thoughts and you shall be exalted;  praise your Lord and exalt Him above all forever.
