Paschal Homily by Archimandrite John Krestiankin, 1993 Now all things are filled with light: heaven, and earth, and the nether regions Christ is Risen! Children of God! I greet you from an abundance of unearthly joy, scorching with the power of these divine words: Christ is Risen! The holy fire of this saving good news, flashing out once again in a bright flame from the Lords Holy Sepulcher, has poured across the world.
