About this title

Synopsis

This comprehensive booklet contains all the prayers necessary for an Orthodox Christian preparing to receive Holy Communion, as well as the post-Communion Prayers of Thanksgiving. Also included is the Synodal document "On the Participation of the Faithful in the Eucharist," recently approved by the Holy Synod of the Russian Orthodox Church to express its official teachings regarding proper reverence and preparation for the holiest of Christian sacraments. The texts are arranged to match the usage of Holy Trinity Monastery and incorporate the psalms as translated in the Psalter for Prayer. Comprehensive rubrics are included to guide the reader.

About the Author

The monks who came to Holy Trinity Monastery from Eastern Europe after World War II inherited a tradition of printing that stretches back almost to the invention of the printing press in the fifteenth century. Through the fathers’ tireless efforts, the monastery has been printing and publishing Orthodox Christian books for almost sixty-five years. In keeping with the humble spirit required of a monk, books which are written or prepared by members of the monastic brotherhood are published under the general authorship of Holy Trinity Monastery.
