Christ is Risen! (An Orthodox Easter Story)

In the 1840s, Hans Christian-Andersen witnessed Easter/Pascha in Athens. His impression of the celebration and especially of the exclamation of "Christ is Risen" is inspiring to read!

Glory to GOD! CHRIST IS RISEN!
So happy for you. Pascha is a remarkable blessing in every way. Something mystical.
Blessings on becoming a catechumen in the future.

As a first timer this pascha I was trying to repeat what I hear and I thought it was indeed he has risen but as we continued through the service I realized no he IS risen!

[@srslurp5579]

I was baptized this Holy Saturday. There is no greater joy than to be raised from the dead, from hell itself, with my Savior guiding me hand and hand. Christ is Risen! Glory to God!

[@SestraVixen]

I had the opportunity this weekend to attend the services from Holy Thursday to the fellowship meal after midnight. It was an amazing experience and all I can keep thinking is that this is the true apostolic Christianity, the way it should be around the world.

Christ has risen Stephen so that he may testify His resurrection and the true meaning of the gospels. And He says to him, now and always:
"Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name; you are Mine!"

How wonderful that Mr Anderson experienced and apprehended the joy of Christ as an observer . It would be wonderful to see that fervour born out communally today. We are in Australia and make up a small but growing part of the population so alas not in my lifetime but who knows what the future holds ?
