Forefeast of the Entrance of the Holy Theotokos into the Temple



By blossoming forth the only Ever-virgin as fruit, today holy Anna doth betroth us all unto joy, instead of our former grief; on this day she doth fulfill her vows to the Most High, leading her with joy into the Lord's Holy Temple, who truly is the temple and pure Mother of God the Word.

Kontakion:
The whole world is filled today with joy and gladness on the Theotokos' auspicious and resplendent feast, whereon with great voice crieth out: The heavenly tabernacle is she in truth.
