Mid-Pentecost celebrates the midpoint between the Feasts of Pascha and Pentecost. Specifically, it falls on the 25th day of Pascha. The theme of the feast is Christ as Teacher, based upon the words from the Gospel of the day (John 7:14-30): “Now about the midst of the feast Jesus went up into the temple, and taught…Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me. If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself.”
