Orthodox faith is rich in rituals, traditions andholidays, not too well known in modern society. It is to such celebrations that the Forgiveness Sunday 2016, celebrated on the last day of a cheerful, bright and satisfying Shrovetide week, applies.







When is Forgiven Sunday 2016? Date and customs of the church holiday



In 2016, Forgiveness Sunday falls on the 13thMartha. On this day, Christians repent of perfect sins and ask each other for apologies for all the wrongs done. Priests in the first minutes of service turn to their parishioners with a request to forget any troubles and forgive not only friends but also enemies.





The Church urges believers to besincere in their requests and bring people an apology from a pure heart, while casting out of the soul bad thoughts and wicked desires. Only such repentance gives a real result, brings remission of sins and helps to receive God's blessing for the entire next year.



On the same day, the Orthodox remember goodby the word of the deceased, visit the cemeteries, bathe in the bath and last time before the Great Lent, allowing yourself to eat meat, fatty fish, dairy products, sweets and eggs. In the evening of a festive day in a huge fire, the effigy of the Carnival is burned, and the nearby fields are fertilized by nearby fields to improve the fertility of the land and increase yields.



Intoxicated and gentle poems on Forgiveness Sunday



A bright holiday is a wonderful occasion to askforgiveness from relatives, friends and just acquainted people for some accidental insults, involuntarily escaped rude word or rash actions. Even committed not with evil, these things hurt hurt a loved one and remain in your memory for a long time. Not everyone is able to apologize, looking straight into the eyes. But to write a touching poem on a postcard, a piece of paper or a page in a social network is completely in everyone's power. The most important thing is to do it sincerely and with an open heart.





I seldom come to you,

I seldom talk to you,

Mom, I know for sure,

That I love you so much.

I want to ask for forgiveness,

For the pain and the coldness of the eyes ...

Your hope and patience

On the way it warms us ...





With a forgiven resurrection, I congratulate you,

I declare God an appearance in the world.

Let all sins and debts be forgiven sooner,

Let everyone become warmer in their hearts



Let the day is beautiful

Failure will come true,

There will not be unhappy people,

There will be no deprivation.



Let the hungry get enough,

Help the poor

And then fate will come to you

Not at all harmful.





Forgiveness Sunday,

Congratulations,

Let's go today

Forgive each other at once.



Give you gifts,

From love, let it get hot,

Let the angel light

Many happy victories.



May God keep you from grief,

Rejoice, not arguing at all,

Forgive all of you, friends,

Congratulations to you and I.





My heart is filled with light

I'm in a hurry to apologize to you,

On this day, radiant, Sunday,

Forgive me, I beg you!

Today I prayed to God

Purification of one's soul

The road is still great,

Do not rush to reject ... do not rush!





I want to ask you to forgive me,

For all that was - sincerely sorry,

Today is the feast and in the Holy Resurrection,

Do not harrass a grudge against me.

Without malicious intent, I took a cunning step,

And I repent of my deeds,

Perhaps it is possible to avoid the most holy punishment,

But thoughts and actions are already pure.
