Holy Unction

We went to the Holy Unction service on Wednesday evening. It is a very beautiful and healing service where Orthodox Christian are anointed with chrism for the healing of soul and body. During the service seven Gospel readings are read and a candle is lit after each reading. I made sure that the kids and I sat up front so that they could see what was going on and count how many candles there were left to be lit. It really helped with the wiggles!
