I always liked how they carry the icon in procession after the Great Vespers. My wife and I were in Myrina a few years back and caught the eve service — the singing stayed with me. Hope the weather holds for the July 26th evening liturgy.

The icon procession after Vespers really is something special there. We were in Myrina the summer before last and the choir's "Agios Panteleimon" hymn during the litany still plays in my head when I water the garden. Did you and your wife stay right in town or out by the beach?

Basil Bennett

The procession really does make the evening feel alive, doesn't it? We try to get to that Vespers every year if we can. Did the choir sing the same slow "Agios Panteleimon" melody that they used when we visited in '23?

We made it to the litany too that year — the way the whole town turns out with candles is hard to forget. We stayed in a little apartment right in town, just a short walk from the church, which made everything easier. Did the choir sing the same hymn both nights or was that only for the procession?

Интересно, что и в Мюрине после великой вечерни всегда выносят икону в крестный ход. У нас в Ярославле на Пантелеимона тоже так делают, только хор поёт чуть побыстрее. А кто-нибудь знает, в каком году там последний раз был архиерей на литургии 27-го?

Da, procesiunea cu icoana după Vecernia Mare e cu adevărat frumoasă. La noi în Iași, la Sfântul Pantelimon din Păcurari, facem la fel, doar că oamenii vin cu felinare mici de la case, nu cu lumânări mari. Oare episcopul a slujit acolo și în 2024?

Kod nas u Podgorici na Sv. Pantelejmona u Sastavcima posle velike večernje isto iznose ikonu i idu litija kroz sokak. Lepo je kad se celo selo okupi sa svećama. Zanimljivo mi je, da li je arhijerej bio na liturgiji 27. jula prošle godine?

The procession after Vespers does have a way of sticking with you. We made it to that same eve service back in 2019 and the choir's slower tempo on the litany still comes to mind when I’m weeding the tomatoes in the backyard. Did you and your wife catch the full Orthros the next morning too?

Gregory Morris

We stayed in that same little apartment block near the harbor one summer—five-minute walk and you’re right in the middle of everything. The litany with all the candles is something else, isn’t it. I think the choir used the same hymn for both the Vespers and the procession that year, but the Orthros on Monday morning had different ones. Did you catch the bishop’s sermon?
