That the Lord Jesus Christ, our Saviour, may grant us triumph and
victory over the temptations of our visible and invisible enemies, let
us pray to the Lord.
That we may crush beneath our feet the Prince of Darkness and his
powers and that He may raise us with Him and make us rise from
the tomb of our sins and offenses, let us pray to the Lord.
That He may fill us with the joy and happiness of His Holy Resurrection, let us pray to the Lord.
That we may deserve the grace of entering into the chamber of His
divine wedding –feast and rejoice beyond limit, together with His
heavenly attendants and the hosts of saints glorified through Him in
the Church Triumphant in heaven, let us pray to the Lord.
Antiphon Prayer
O Christ God, You showed Thomas your side from which gushed blood
and water, symbols of Baptism. You invited him to touch the wound by
which mankind was healed from its ancient deep wound. We ask You to
strengthen our faith in your Divinity and Humanity so that we may become witnesses to your glorious Resurrection by our words, our deeds
and our way of life. For You are our Resurrection, O Christ, God, and to
You we render glory and to your Eternal Father and your All-holy, Good
and Life-giving Spirit, now and always and forever and ever. Amen.

Troparion of the Sunday of Saint Thomas (7th Tone)
O Christ our life, you rose from the tomb after it had been sealed, and while
the doors remained closed, You stood among your disciples and restored a
new spirit in them, O our God, the resurrection of all! You are most merciful.
Kontakion (2nd Tone )
Although You descended into the grave, O Immortal One, You destroyed the
power of Death. You arose as a victor, O Christ God. You told the women
bearing ointment, “Rejoice!” You gave peace to Your Apostles and resurrection to the Fallen.

A Reading from the Acts of the Apostles (5: 12-20)
In those days by the hands of the apostles many signs and wonders were
done among the people (and with one accord, they all would meet in Solomon’s portico; but of the rest, no one dared to associate with them, yet
the people made much of them. And the multitude of men and women
who believed in the Lord continued to increase), so that they carried the
sick into the streets and laid them on beds and pallets, in order that, as
Peter went by, at least his shadow would fall upon some of them. And
crowds also came to Jerusalem from neighbouring towns, and they
brought the sick and those afflicted with unclean spirits – and all of them
were healed. But the High Priest rose up, and all his supporters that is,
the members of the Sadducean sect, and being filled with hatred, they
laid their hands upon the apostles and threw them into the public jail. But
during the night, an angel of the Lord opened the doors of the prison.
And let them out, saying : “Go, and standing in the temple , speak to the
people all the words of this life.”
whose sins you shall retain, they are retained.” Now Thomas, one of the
twelve, called the Twin, was not with them when Jesus came. The other
disciples therefore said to him, “We have seen the Lord.” But he said to
them, “Unless I see in his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger
into the place of the nails, and put my hand into his side I will not believe.” And after eight days, his disciples were again inside, and Thomas
with them. Jesus came, the doors being closed, and stood in their midst
and said, “Peace be with you!” then he said to Thomas. “Bring here your
finger, and see my hands; and bring here your hand, and put it into my
side; and be not unbelieving, but believing.” Thomas answered and said
to him, “My Lord and my God!” Jesus said to him, “Because you have
seen me, Thomas, you have believed. Blessed are those who have not
seen, and yet have believed.” Many other signs also Jesus worked in the
sight of his disciples, which are not written in this book. But these are
written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and
that believing you may have life in his name.

The Holy Gospel according to St. John the Evangelist (20: 19-31)
When it was late, that same day, the first of the week, through the doors
where the disciples gathered had been closed for fear of the Jews, Jesus
came and stood in the midst and said to them, “Peace be with you!” And
when he had said this, he showed them his hands and his side. The disciples therefore rejoiced at the sight of the Lord. Jesus said to them again,
“Peace be to you! As the Father has sent me, I also send you.” When he
had said this, he breathed upon them, and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit; whose sins you shall forgive, they are forgiven them; and
May they be granted many years of joy & happiness
