Paschal Homily
From Freepedia
(Redirected from Catechetical Homily)
The Paschal homily or sermon of St John Chrysostom is read aloud in every Orthodox parish on the morning of Pascha (a.k.a "Easter" in the West), called "the Great and Holy Pascha of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ" in the Eastern Orthodox Church. According to the Tradition of the Church, no one sits during the reading of the Paschal homily. Portions of it are often done with the interactive participation of the congregation.
