Hi. I would like to know if anyone can direct me through the internet on where to get a copy in English of the Pre Sanctified Gifts for Pascha?

Many Thanks

HUH? The Divine Liturgy of the Presanctified gifts is an exclusively Lenten service. The last presanctified of the year is served on Holy Wednesday and after that does not reappear until Lent of the next year. There is no "Pre Sanctified Gifts for Pascha". Now if you are looking for a copy of the Pashal Matins and Divine Liturgy I would imagine that it is out there somewhere (don't really have time to look at the moment) however the Paschal Canon (sung during Pascha Matins - the service that begins at midnight after the procession around temple) can be found here ( http://www.fatheralexander2.org/booklets/english/resur.htm#n7 ) [note: I am having trouble inserting links - sorry for the "old fashioned" method of just including the url] The only liturgy on Pascha is that of St John Chrysostom. St Basil's liturgy is not used again (after Holy Saturday) until the next Nativity Eve.

If you are referring to the Liturgy of the Presanctified Gifts, which is typically celebrated on Wednesdays and Fridays (in the Russian practice) of Great and Holy Lent, you can find it here: Presanctified Liturgy (http://www.anastasis.org.uk/presanctified.htm)

An OCA article on Presanctified Liturgy can be found here: Liturgy of the Presanctified Gifts (http://www.oca.org/OCchapter.asp?SID=2&ID=69)
