Tuesday of Cheesefare Week

‘People, receive Lent with gladness!

The beginning of spiritual warfare arrives!

Forsake the indulgence of your flesh, that the gifts of the spirit may be increased in you!

Embrace your share of suffering, soldiers of Christ!

Prove yourselves to be children of God!

The Holy Spirit will take up his abode in you, // and your souls will be filled with his light!’

– From the Lenten Triodion, Tuesday of Cheesefare week
