Beloved brothers and sisters in Christ,
Tonight, we sing this magnificent canticle of the Akathist Hymn in its entirety and in praise to the Παναγία, our Heavenly Champion.
Tonight, we join with Orthodox Christians across the country and around the world – especially with our fellow brethren in Ukraine, who are relying upon the Virgin to grant them victory over their adversaries.
