LIVE: Worshippers Celebrate Holy Fire Ceremony at the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem
Worshippers attend the Holy Fire ceremony at the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem. Candles and torches from a flame are expected to be carried out by Patriarch Theophilos III of Jerusalem as he emerges from Jesus’ tomb.
The Holy Fire is considered a miracle occurring every year on Holy Saturday, the day preceding Orthodox Easter Sunday. Traditionally, an olive lamp lit by the “Holy Fire“ is transferred soon after the ceremony to the West Bank town of Bethlehem, revered as the birthplace of Jesus Christ.
