Typica Livestream – Monday, November 3, 2025

Glory to Jesus Christ!
On November 3, the Orthodox Church commemorates the Holy Martyrs Akepsimus the Bishop, Joseph the Priest, and Aethalas the Deacon of Persia. These three saints, steadfast in their love for Christ, endured persecution and martyrdom during the fourth century for refusing to renounce their faith.
Today’s readings from Colossians 2:13–20 and Luke 11:29–33 remind us that through Christ’s Cross, we are freed from the bondage of sin and called to shine as lights in a world seeking signs. The martyrs of Persia exemplified this truth — their faith was not hidden under a basket, but illuminated the hearts of countless believers through their sacrifice and courage.
We invite you to join our next livestream on Wednesday, November 5, 2025, at 6:30 PM Eastern Time. Together, let us continue to grow in faith and fellowship through prayer and reflection.
