Reader Services through the Sunday of the Myrrh-bearing Women


This installment covers the Sundays and Feasts of Old Calendar April, which on the civil Calendar runs from April 14th through May 13th. I intend to keep these texts posted as long as there are states or English speaking countries that are still under lockdown due to the Coronavirus.

The Eves

For the Eves of the upcoming Sundays and Feasts, you could ideally do the Vigil. The fixed portions can be downloaded here:

or viewed in HTML, here:

For the Rubrics, see: http://www.saintjonah.org/rub/

The variable portions of the service can be downloaded here (all of these would be served on the eve of their respective days), all the variable material is included in one file. 

Beginning with Lazarus Saturday (April 16th n.s. / April 3rd o.s.) through Pascha (April 24th n.s. / April 11th o.s.), you will find all of the services laid out as reader services here:
