On Saturday, May 3, 2025, the Russian-speaking Orthodox community of Los Angeles invites everyone to a warm and festive Paschal Evening (Пасхальный вечер) — a celebration filled with music, delicious food, and the spirit of Easter that continues to shine weeks after the glorious feast of Christ’s Resurrection.
Date & Time: May 3 • 5:00 PM
Location: 5432 Fernwood Avenue, Los Angeles, CA
The event promises a genuine atmosphere of paschal joy “in the circle of friends and parishioners.” Guests will enjoy:
- A lively market (ярмарка) with handmade goods and treats
- A beautiful choir performance
- Freshly grilled shashlik and barbecue
- Heartwarming songs with guitar
- An overall cozy and atmospheric evening under strings of lights, surrounded by flowers and spring greenery
The poster itself radiates warmth and tradition: golden-domed churches rise in the background, palm trees sway gently, tables overflow with Easter kulich, colored eggs, and spring bouquets, while musicians and cheerful guests fill the courtyard. A large banner proclaims the timeless greeting: “Христос Воскресе!” — “Christ is Risen!”
This gathering is perfect for families, friends, and anyone who wants to extend the bright Paschal season, share food, music, and fellowship in a beautiful outdoor setting. Whether you’re a regular parishioner or simply love Russian culture, Orthodox traditions, and good company, you are warmly welcome.
Come celebrate spring, faith, and community! Bring your loved ones, your appetite, and your voice — the guitars will be playing and the choir will be singing.
For more information, contact the organizers through your local parish or simply show up at 5432 Fernwood Avenue on May 3 at 5 PM. The address is easy to reach in the heart of Los Angeles.
Christ is Risen! Truly He is Risen! Христос Воскресе! Воистину Воскресе!
Mark your calendars — this promises to be one of the most delightful community events of the spring season in LA. 🌸🕯️🎶
