The Liturgy of the Presanctified Gifts is known to be difficult to follow because of the cross referencing required with other liturgical books. Our edition of the Liturgy of the Presanctified Gifts eliminates the need to consult any other book. It is a “Simplified Presanctified” with a fresh new English text and is complete with the hymnology and readings for each Wednesday and Friday in Lent as well as for the first three days of Holy Week. Also included are the Liturgy of Saint Basil the Great, with the appropriate Epistle and Gospel readings for the five Sundays of Lent, as well as the Apolytikia and Kontakia. The lay person will have no difficulty following, while for the Celebrant and the Cantor it eliminates, as in the case of our Orthros, the need to consult any other book.
