The feast of the Meeting of our Lord, God, and Savior Jesus Christ, which commemorates the presentation of our Lord by his parents in the Temple in Jerusalem on the fortieth day from His birth, concludes the cycle of winter feasts that are sometimes called the “Feasts of Light”. These feasts — the Nativity, Theophany, and Meeting – have a common focus: the coming of the Messiah into the world, and the beginning of His work of redemption.This feast is celebrated on February 2 — forty days after the feast of the Nativity (December 25) — and is counted one of the Twelve Great Feasts of the church. In the Byzantine Catholic Church, it is a solemn feast-day. It is known as Hypopante in Greek, and Sritenije in Slavonic; both words mean “meeting”. It is sometimes called the Presentation of the Lord, or (among Latin-Rite Catholics) the Purification of the Blessed Virgin Mary, or Candlemas.
