very nice, good work!
I will never forget when I walked into the Annunciation Cathedral in Atlanta, Georgia what happened. I'd never been inside the Cathedral before. On October 21, 1985, as I stepped inside into the Narthex, I heard "Oon!" I had no idea what I just heard, but the next thing I know, I'm prostrating on the floor. Trembling, I was assisted to my feet and thanked whomever had helped me. Just after that, one of the men at the candle stand came over to me. He asked me if I needed help, and I proceeded to thank him for lifting me up to my feet. He then told me that he didn't, and said that there was nobody there with me until he arrived on the scene. I had no idea what Oon meant until I asked Father Homer. He and Cathy Galloway told me what it meant. I knew Christ our God was telling me "I am" as if to say "This is my house." I knew I'd come home, and I've continued to grow since then by the grace of God. "Glory be to Him who has shown us the Light."
Does there exist a link to the person chanting or anything here on youtube? The chant is really amazing
My favorite is the one at Daphne.
How wonderful!
Amen! Hi Is.
I should have written He is!
Glory to God
So good
Amen! God bless all!
Glory and praise unto the Uncreated Creator who is.
Thank you for sharing this. ❤️✌️❤️
The almighty Lord Jesus Christ, the Truth, the way and the light of the world. All Glory and Honour belong to him. May he have mercy on all of us.

Fabulous. What is the music?
Thanks so much for this fascinating and enlightening video.
In the back is that lettering or symbols and OWN what does that mean ?
I found this name for Christ in the CCC #2749. I had never heard Jesus called the Pantocrator before. This popped up the second I searched what that name meant. This is exquisitely beautiful❤
What is the name of the chant of the beginning?
I had never heard the name "Pantocrator" as another name for Jesus. Absolutely beautiful video. Thank you and bless you!
I really wanna know what icon that is in the thumbnail
