Merci pour cet article. C’est bon de voir que chez vous à Ioannina on a fêté l’Indictos avec le Grand Vêpres lundi soir et la Liturgie mardi matin dans la même église Saint-Païssios, avec Mgr Maximos qui a tout présidé. L’Aghiasmos après la Divine Liturgie est toujours un beau moment pour commencer l’année ecclésiastique. Chez nous à Strasbourg on fait ça plus modestement, mais c’est la même intention.

Yes, that's exactly it, Aghiasmos always gives that little boost of freshness for the new year. At home in Toulouse we also do Great Vespers the day before and the Liturgy on the 1st, but often in smaller parishes, so it is more family-friendly. Have you planned something special in Strasbourg for the start of the parish season?
