Akathist of Thanksgiving

  • Holy Cross Orthodox Church 105 North Camp Meade Road Linthicum Heights, MD, 21090 United States (map)

The Akathist of Thanksgiving, also called “Glory to God for All Things” is often attributed to Priest Gregory Petrov who died in a Soviet prison camp in 1940. The title is from the words of St. John Chrysostom as he was dying in exile. It is a song of praise from amidst the most terrible sufferings and is an opportunity for us to share together as a community in the Thanksgiving holiday.

We will be serving this beautiful and moving Akathist of Thanksgiving Wednesday, November 24, 6:30pm.
