The Sunday after Pascha, commemorating the Apostle Thomas touching Christ's wounds and proclaiming "My Lord and my God!" Also called Antipascha or the Feast of Renewal, this day emphasizes faith through seeing and not seeing. The Gospel reading addresses doubt and faith, making it especially meaningful for inquirers and those struggling with belief.
Brief prayer services traditionally celebrated at specific times of day: First Hour (6 AM), Third Hour (9 AM), Sixth Hour (noon), and Ninth Hour (3 PM). Each Hour includes psalms, troparia, and prayers appropriate to that time of day. These services sanctify the day and connect us to Christ's Passion, as they commemorate specific moments in His crucifixion and death.
