4th Sunday of Triodion - Cheesefare/Forgiveness Sunday

On Cheesefare Saturday, the Orthodox Church commemorates ...all the Righteous who shone forth in the Ascetic Life - in Fasting and Prayer. It is a week to use up whatever dairy products we have in our homes before Great Lent to begin paring down our food intake, not to stuff ourselves as if we were going to starve for the next forty days. We enter Great Lent with the Rite of Forgiveness following Vespers of Cheesefare Sunday. Clergy and laity ask one anothers forgiveness, and then the Priest Blesses everyone for their Spiritual Journey through the Great Lenten Fast. Strengthening ourselves with the desire of the Repentant St Zacchaeus, the Humility of the humble and contrite Publican, the resolve of the Prodigal Son, sobriety in contemplation of Gods Righteous Judgment and the crucial Lesson of Adams expulsion from Paradise, we are well equipped ...for the noble contest of the Fast. Let us set out with Joy upon the season of the Fast, and prepare ourselves for Spiritual Combat. Let us Purify our soul and Cleanse our flesh; and as we Fast from food, let us Abstain also from every passion. Rejoicing in the Virtues of the Holy Spirit may we persevere with Love, and so be counted worthy to see the solemn Passion of Christ our God, and with great Spiritual Gladness to behold His Holy Passover.

Adam was evicted from Paradise as one

disobedient, after partaking of its luxury. Moses beheld God, after Cleansing the eyes of his soul by Fating. Hence, if we desire to become Residents of Paradise, let us separate ourselves from baleful delights, and, desiring to see God as did Moses, let us Fast the Four time Ten!. By sincerely persevering in Prayer and Supplication, let us suppress the passions of our souls; let us avert the swellings of flesh; thus lightened, let us set off on the Journey to Things Above, where the Choir of Angels in unbroken song sing Praise to the Undivided Trinity, to behold the Irresistible Beauty of our Master. O Son of God and Giver of Life: we who set our Hope on Thee Entreat: Make us worthy of dancing with the Hosts of Angels, O Christ, at the Intercessions of Thy Mother, the Apostles, Martyrs and all the Saints.
