proclaimed to the Women the

Destroyer of corruption; we fall
down before Thee, Risen from the
grave and alone our God.
✞ Glory to the Father, and to the Son,
and to the Holy Spirit
Thou were willingly nailed to the Cross,
O Merciful One, and laid in a tomb as
a mortal, O Giver of Life. By Thy
Death, O Powerful One, Thou
smashed its might; for Hades’s
gatekeepers trembled before Thee;
Thou raised with Thee the dead from
every age, for Thou alone Love
mankind.
Now and ever, and to the ages of ages.

The Joyful Day for all Faithful has come

observe It, and with Divinely
Inspired songs, worthily Glorify all
His Great Accomplishments, for He,

Illumined the Universe.

and when they saw a Vision of an

HIS ELEVEN APOSTLES
After these things Jesus showed
Himself again to the Disciples at the
Sea of Tiberias, and in this way He
showed Himself:
Simon Peter, Thomas called the Twin,
Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, the
sons of Zebedee, and two others of
His Disciples were together.
Simon Peter said to them: “I am going
fishing.”
They said to him: “We are going with
thee also.”
They went out and immediately got
into the boat, but that night they
caught nothing.
When the morning had come, Jesus
stood on the shore; yet the Disciples
did not know that it was Jesus.
Then Jesus said them:, “Children, have
you any food?”
the net on
the right side of the boats, and you
will find some.”
cast the net and then they were
unable to draw it in because of the
multitude of fish.
Therefore that Disciple whom Jesus
loved said to Peter: “It is the Lord!”
Now when Simon Peter heard that it
was the Lord, he put on his outer
garment (for he had removed it), and
plunged into the sea.
the other Disciples came in the
little boat (for they were not far from
land, but about two hundred cubits),
dragging the net with fish.
Then, as soon as they had come to
land, they saw a fire of coals there,
and fish laid on it, and bread.
Jesus said to them: “Bring some of the
fish which you have just caught.”
Simon Peter went up and dragged the
net to land, full of large fish, one
hundred and fifty-three; and
although there were so many, the

Who grants Resurrection to all!
Let us praise as God of all Power the
One Who rose on the Third Day,
smashed the Gates of Hades and
roused the age-long dead from the
grave, Who appeared to the
Myrrhbearers, as it was His Good
Pleasure to say to them first of all:
Rejoice! And so revealing Joy to the
Apostles, as alone Giver of Life.
Therefore with Faith the Women
proclaim the tokens of Victory to
the Disciples. Hades groans, Death

rejoice together: for Thou, O Christ,
HAST GRANTED RESURRECTION TO
ALL.
