The celebration of Easter in Patmos is certainly a unique life experience, mainly because of the Holy Monastery of St John the theologian in Chora, which is a reference point for the whole Greece & Orthodox Christianity.
In the evening of Easter Saturday you can watch the resurrection service both in the monastery of Agios Ioannis and the convent of the Immaculate Conception just outside Chora.
On Easter Sunday afternoon at the monastery of St. John, the Second Resurrection takes place, where the uplifting gospel is read in different languages, such as Italian, French, Russian, Serbian, etc. |
