On March 6, Orthodox Christians hold their first memorial Saturday in 2021.
Ecumenical memorial Saturday
Today is memorial Saturday, and tomorrow - Sunday - Christians can taste meat for the last time before Lent.On the day before, the churches remember the departed, and especially those who did not receive a full funeral service or church prayer. We are talking about people who suddenly died in foreign lands, died in war, in a fire, from hunger, cold, or even disappeared altogether.
The Great Panikhida is held on Friday evening, and the next morning there is a general prayer.
Another sign of parental Saturday is visiting cemeteries to leave flowers and lamps, to think in silence, to show respect.You can remember your loved ones at home, if there is no way to go to church.
Among the prohibitions on this day, the clergy distinguish the following: you cannot quarrel, swear, get angry, have noisy fun, walk.
