Akathist of Thanksgiving: Glory to God for All Things

We will be serving the very beautiful and moving Akathist of Thanksgiving. The Akathist “Glory to God for All Things” or “Akathist of Thanksgiving,” is attributed to Metropolitan Tryphon (Prince Boris Petrovich Turkestanov, +1934), and was found among the effects of Protopresbyter Gregory Petrov, upon his death in a prison camp in 1940. The most commonly used title for the hymn was taken from the words of St. John Chrysostom, as he lay dying in exile—words of praise arising from amidst terrible sufferings and is an opportunity for us to share together as a community in the Thanksgiving holiday.
