From the Pascha (Easter) Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrystosom at St. John the Baptist Russian Orthodox Cathedral (ROCOR) in Mayfield, PA, with V. Rev. Mitred Archpriest John D. Sorochka, pastor. During the consecration of the Holy Gifts, the responses were sung by the Family Choir, consisting of children and their parents, under the direction of Choir Director Gary Brzuchalski.

Our Cathedral has Resurrection Matins w/ Procession at midnight. then does not have Divine Liturgy until the following morning on Pascha morning. Many Orthodox Churches in Northeastern Pennsylvania and Western Pennsylvania have it that way. I suppose one of the reasons is because of the many elderly parishoners, or maybe that more people will attend if it's during the day.

Softologist, I am not sure what you mean by the comment, "it's not Russian Orthodox". St. John the Baptist Russian Orthodox Cathedral is part of the Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia (ROCOR) and the typicon used is from the Russian Orthodox tradition. The only thing that is not Russian Orthodox is the language. On this particular Pascha the anaphora was sung and chanted in English. We switch back and forth between Slavonic and English.

I am coptic orthodox and I hope we become all united together

I too was a Latin (Tridentine) Rite Roman Catholic but now this Holy Pascha I have converted to the right believing church, the Eastern Orthodox Church where I can see a greater continuum of spirituality that I never knew in the RC church. I too wish for reuniting but I can tell you that most Orthodox Christians will not, and never will accept the Pope's authority nor infalibility. Just a comment, not trying to be too political.

@SorokChyetirye

There are no sacraments out of Church (Orthodox)

Thumbs up if your sick of seeing debates whenever you just wanna watch a DL video.

@jasonbently2002 Gosh, can we get this guy a bottle of holy water? Maybe an exorcist? @_o

What separates the Catholics and Orthodox is little. Mainly two issues: the Papacy's supremacy over all clergy, and Catholic theology which uses (pagan) human reason and not only theoria. We both have the Real Presence, apostolic succession in the clergy, the original undefiled Scriptures, the revelations of the Saints, central authority, and other things (which, I will note, many Protestants lack).

@NeluThat70sKid IF YOU WON'T ACCEPT ORTHODOX WITNESS, UNIATE APOSTATE, GO TO YOUR OWN VIDEOS AND YOUR OWN THREADS AND TAKE YOUR THREE DOLLAR BILL UNIATE COUNTERFEIT WITH YOU! IF YOU WISH TO UNITE YOURSELF WITH CHRIST's TRUE CHURCH, THE ORTHODOX CATHOLIC CHURCH, AND RENOUNCE YOUR APOSTASY FROM IT, UNITE YOURSELF TO THE ARK OF SALVATION AND REJECT YOUR BLASPHEMOUS AND SOUL DESTROYING UNIA! THESE VIDEOS ARE ORTHODOX WITNESS, AND IF YOU DON'T WANT TO BE PROSELYTIZED BY THEM, DON'T WATCH THEM!

@jasonbently2002 I'M NOT AT ALL PUSHING ANY "ECUMENIST TRYPE" OF ANY KIND HERE, PLUS, I DO BELIEVE IN FULL COMMUNION WITH THE ORTHODOX CHURCH, SO NOT ALL CATHOLICS GO ABOUT PUSHING LIES AND HERESIES (THOUGH THEY DO INSIST ON KEEPING THINGS AROUND THEM STATUS QUO, WHICH I ALREADY HAPPEN TO RESENT, AND I'M NOT AT ALL SAYING ANY OF THIS TO MAKE MYSELF LOOK GOOD EITHER). BUT THE LAST AND FINAL THING NOT NEEDED HERE

IS PROSELYTIZING BEING RAMMED DOWN THE THROATS OF NON-ORTHODOX LIKE MYSELF

[jasonbently2002]

THE UNIATE APOSTASY IS A COUNTERFEIT OF ORTHODOXY USED TO LURE ORTHODOX CATHOLICS AWAY FROM THE TRUE CHURCH INTO PAPAL BLASPHEMIES AND SOUL DESTROYING HERESIES! BEING A UNIATE MEANS YOU ARE AN APOSTATE FROM ORTHODOXY IN A HELL BOUND CULT! EVERY UNIATE BEARS THE SIN OF APOSTASY FROM THE ORTHODOX CATHOLIC CHURCH, BEING CONDEMNED FOR LEAVING THE TRUE CHURCH FOR PAPAL BLASPHEMY OF THE HOLY SPIRIT AND HERESY! UNTIL THE UNIATE PROBLEM IS SOLVED ALONG WITH REPENTANCE FOR FILIOQUE, THERE CAN BE NO UNITY

[jasonbently2002]

@CDOG111 We sure can! RETURN TO THE ORTHODOX CATHOLIC CHURCH and turn away from your heresies and blasphemies and we will welcome you all with open arms.

[jasonbently2002]

@NeluThat70sKid Your rejection of filioque won't make a difference UNTIL YOU UNITE YOURSELF WITH THE ORTHODOX CATHOLIC CHURCH AND LEAVE BEHIND THE PAPAL HERETICAL CHURCH. SO SPARE US THE ECUMENIST TRYPE!

[NeluThat70sKid]

@jasonbently2002 Although I really do hate to alienate my fellow Roman Catholics (including those in my own family), but I also already have rejected the teachings surrounding the filioque a very long time ago (because the Holy Spirit DOES proceed ONLY from the Father, our Creator, believe me--I have). Besides, not ALL Latins go about pushing lies and heresies, there are those of us who KNOW HOW TO KEEP A FULL OPEN MIND TO THE TRUE FAITH, SO TAKE YOUR GROSS GENERALIZATIONS ELSEWHERE.
