5:00 PM / SATURDAY VESPERS
The word “Vespers” is derived from the Greek word that means ‘in the evening.’ This evening prayer service thanks God for the day that is ending and inaugurates the new day. Saturday night Great Vespers brings in the Lord’s Day and is therefore resurrectional in character.

The word “Orthros” means ‘sunrise’ or ‘dawn’ in Greek. The Orthros, or Matins Service is the sunrise worship service and is held prior to the Sunday Divine Liturgy.
