Service of Saturday Orthos

[Catherine]

It has been awhile since I posted a msg and I am requesting information on the Saturday Orthos.

Could anyone inform me if the Saturday morning Orthos service is different to the Sunday morning orthos service? If so, in what way?

Thank you in anticipation

[Fr Raphael Vereshack]

The Saturday Orthros is always different from that of Sunday Orthros.

Probably the best way to understand the differences between these services (if you can't actually attend them) are the comparative tables for these services found in The Festal Menaion put together by Kallistos Ware and Mother Mary.

Otherwise as the variations possible are so many and the Orthros service itself is one of the most intricate there is probably no way the difference could be described here.

Thank you Father Raphael. I will do my best to attend and experience the difference.

In Christ
