Monday of the Holy Spirit celebrated by Orthodoxy around the world

A religious holiday is observed today throughout Greece, as the Monday of the Holy Spirit, also known as Whit Monday in English – or Pentecost Monday – marks one of the major Feast Days on the Orthodox calendar.

The moveable after-feast is observed on the Monday after Pentecost Sunday.

Orthodoxy honors God the Holy Spirit, and particularly in commemoration of His descent upon the Apostles at Pentecost.

Noted theologian, author and publisher Dimitris Mavropoulos analyzes the significance of the religious feast day for the Orthodoxia News Agency, with a relevant video – in Greek – posted on Monday.
