→Fifth Sunday of Pascha: The Samaritan Woman: added link
==Fifth Sunday of Pascha: The Samaritan Woman ==
[[Image:Samaritan Woman.JPG|thumbnail|right|The Samaritan Woman]]
The fifth Sunday after Easter deals with the [[Photine of Samaria|woman of Samaria ]] with whom Christ spoke at Jacob's Well from the Gospel of St John (4). Again the theme is the "living water" and the recognition of Jesus as God's Messiah (John 4:10-11; 25-26).
This is a reminded of new life in Christ, of drinking of the "living water," of true worship of God in the Christian messianic age "in Spirit and in Truth" (John 4:23-24). Salvation is offered to all: Jews and Gentiles, men and women, saints and sinners.
