Preparations for the Consecration of the Holy Myrrh are well underway. With the blessing of His All-Holiness, the Archon Myrrhepsos and the Provosts of the Myrrh are set to begin the sacred and painstaking task of producing the fragrant substance – an endavour, which will take three entire days and culminate with the Consecration on Holy Thursday.
