Feast of Pentecost

Faith Q&A › Metropolitan Youssef › Prayer, Fasting and Worship › Feast of Pentecost

The question

On the Feast of the Pentecost is there a procession for the Lamb or do we just pray the 6th hour psalms because we're going to pray the 3rd hour during the Liturgy. If there is a procession for the Lamb do we say 'Epouro or Christos Anesty'?

The answer

Actually we pray the psalms of the 3rd hour only with its gospel. The litanies of the 3rd hour are prayed after the Praxis. Then we start the kneeling prayer with the psalms of the 6th, 9th, 11th, and 12th hours.
