Nativity of the Theotokos - September 8, 2020

Kontakion of the Nativity of the Theotokos

In your holy birth, Immaculate One, Joachim and Anna were rid of the shame of childlessness; Adam and Eve of the corruption of death. And so your people, free of the guilt of their sins, celebrate crying: "The barren one gives birth to the Theotokos, who nourishes our life."

Father Mark Pakes offers the homily.
