The Greek Orthodox hold a symbolic bride and groom service on Holy Tuesday, which continues from Palm Sunday. Based on the parable of the Ten Virgins (Matthew 25:1-13), it emphasizes spiritual preparation for the return of Christ. /"Groom/" symbolizes Christ's relationship with the Church. Through hymns and readings, the service reflects on the last days and the divinity of Jesus, preparing the faithful for Holy Week.
Our Eastern Orthodox service is conducted primarily in English and Greek and is broadcast live from Saint Mark Greek Orthodox Church in Boca Raton, Florida.
Subscribers to YouTube.com/SaintMark are invited to participate in our public online live chat during the service. We encourage you to introduce yourself by giving your name and the city/state/country you are praying from with us.
