The gathering to honor St. John the Baptist on January 7th, the day after Theophany. This synaxis celebrates John's role as the Forerunner who baptized Christ and his witness to Christ as "the Lamb of God." The feast connects John's ministry to the Theophany celebration, emphasizing his preparation for Christ's revelation.
A devotional service of praise consisting of hymns sung while standing ("akathist" means "not sitting"). The most famous is the Akathist to the Theotokos, traditionally sung during the fifth Friday of Great Lent. Akathists can honor Christ, the Theotokos, or various saints. These services are deeply moving expressions of Orthodox hymnography and devotion.

What is the Orthodox Church?

“The Orthodox Christian Church is evangelical, but not Protestant.
It is orthodox, but not Jewish. It is catholic, but not Roman.
It is not denominational, it is pre-denominational.
It has believed, taught, preserved, defended, and died for the
Faith of the Apostles since the Day of Pentecost nearly 2,000 years ago.”
