On Sunday 9th of March 2014 Sunday of Orthodoxy His Eminence Metropolitan Prokopios of Adelaide will conduct the Divine Liturgy at the Greek Orthodox Parish of the Assumption of Virgin Mary 1A William St Croydon. The Divine Liturgy will start at 9:00-11:30am. The Sunday of the Triumph of Orthodoxy is celebrated on the first Sunday of Great Lent. It is the celebration of the victory of the iconodules over the iconoclasts by the decision of the Seventh Ecumenical Council. Therefore, the service is to commemorate the restoration of icons for use in services and private devotional life of Christians. Services often include the clergy or the faithful triumphantly processing around the church, holding icons of their patron or parish saints. After the Divine Liturgy an icons procession will be followed around the church and anyone who want to bring his icon to be part of the litany is more than welcome.
