On March 26, I prepare in advance to take care of the souls of all deceased loved ones.
Next parental Saturday will take place on March 26, 2022. On the eve of an important event for all Christians "Site" Tell them what to do and what not to do on this day. At the end of the article, we will share a prayer for the dead.
According to the church statute, the remembrance of the dead takes place on the 2nd, 3rd and 4th Saturday of Lent. At this time, believing Christians should reveal such traits as favor and mercy. This is what people want in response to God. Once in the afterlife, sinners are deprived of the opportunity to pray to the Lord. Therefore, prayer for the dead is an obligatory deed for every living Christian.
The souls of those who have passed away remain the only hope for those who are still on Earth. Every parental Saturday should definitely go to the temple and put a candle for the repose of relatives and friends who are no longer with us. You can also order a memorial service and give alms for the forgiveness of their sins.
The next parental Saturday will be on March 26. On this day you need to bring food to the temple and leave them on a special table. They are used for the needs of the temple or given to poor people. It helps to honor the memory of the dead. On parental Saturday it is much more important to come to the temple than to the churchyard. During the service, your heart becomes closer to the Lord, and prayers for the dead reach the recipient.
To remember the deceased relatives, you need to come to the temple on Friday, March 25. It is at this time that the Great Panikhida, or parastasis, is performed. And already on the morning of March 26, the Divine Liturgy is held. After that, a general funeral service is served. It is important to be present during both the first and second process.
According to tradition, parishioners prepare notes commemorating the dead. They need to clearly write the names of people in the genitive case. However, we can only mention those who were baptized during life. The unbaptized are allowed to pray at home or on the churchyard. There are also restrictions related to candles. They are placed not at the icons, but near the crucifixion. The temple stands out for this. The special table is the eve.
The candle is a sacrifice to God and a symbol of human prayer. When you put a candle in the temple, be sure to ask the Lord for the repose of your loved ones, naming their names. In memory of those who are no longer with us, it is important to help the person in need. It could be your lonely and sick neighbor or just a homeless person on the street.
On the eve put food: sweets, bread, vegetables and fruits, as well as flour (for prosphorus) and kagoras. It is forbidden to bring meat products to the temple. Remember that the dead cannot be remembered by drinking alcohol. It's considered a sin. In addition, the church condemns loud feasts during parental Saturdays.
“Remember, O Lord our God, in the faith and hope of the life of your eternally departed servant, our brother (name), as the Good and the Lover of Man, letting go of your sins and consuming unrighteousness, weaken, forsake and forgive all his free sins and involuntary sins, deliver him from eternal torment and fire of Geenskago, and grant him the communion and delight of your eternal good ones, prepared for those who love Thy, and consume unrighteousness, and trinity, but not even from the Holy Oneness to the Holy One and the Holy One in God, but from the Holy One in the Holy Oneness and the Trinity.”
Be merciful to him, and trust in thee instead of works of imputation, and with thy saints as generously rest: to bear a man who lives and does not sin. But you are one except all sin, and your righteousness forever, and you are one God of mercy and generosity and love of humanity, and we give glory to you, the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, now and ever and ever. Amen.
Dear reader, spend the approaching parental Saturday wisely. May God take care of you and your family.
