Standing Together in Prayer - Feast of the Presentation of the Lord Jesus in the Temple

"Rejoice, O Virgin Mother of God, full of grace, for from you has risen the sun of justice, Christ our God, enlightening those in darkness. Rejoice and rejoice, O righteous old man, bearing in your arms the freedman of our souls, and the granter of the resurrection for us" (Troparion, Feast of the Presentation of the Lord Jesus in the Temple, first melody, from the Orthodox Church).
