Great Vespers for the Sunday of St. Mary of Egypt - April 4, 2020

"You cut out the wild pursuits of your soul and the passions of the flesh with the sword of abstinence and self-control. You drowned out the images of immorality with the stillness of ascetic discipline. And you watered the entire desert with the river of your tears, and you produced for us the fruits of repentance. Therefore, O devout Saint Mary, we celebrate your memory."

-From the Service of Great Vespers for the Sunday of St. Mary of Egypt.

Father Mark Pakes offers the homily.
