Death and Resurrection of Christ /a contemplative prayer/
Post date: 2011-04-30Autor: Synod UO GCC
The spiritual resurrection of the Church will begin through a renewed celebration of the Day of Resurrection – Sunday. Early Christians had four fundamental spiritual pillars: a) the apostles’ teaching, b) fellowship (koinonia), c) common prayers, d) the Eucharist (see Acts 2:42). All these four elements need to be realized on the day which is wholly consecrated to God. It is not sufficient just to attend the Divine Liturgy (the Eucharist), but the Christians also need to gather in small communities (cells). Again, the pattern for us is the Apostles and early Christians. They not only attended the temple but also gathered in their homes.We bring forward a model for celebration of the Resurrection Day.
