The complicated nature of Saturday's services has left me very behind.

Since most of us have access to some form of Church participation on Sundays, I am taking the decision to use the weekend to build up the coming weekdays.

Therefore there will be no Uploads between Saturday Midday Prayer and Sunday Midday Prayer, inclusive.

I hope to be back with material for Sunday Vespers, and if I can't swing that, Monday Morning will definitely see a resumption of the regular schedule.

I also received many requests for a way to support the Podcast. Links and usernames for a few CashApps have been included in the main Podcast description should you chose to support me in this way. I thank all of you profusely.

The Order of Orthros and Prime for the 1st Saturday of the Great Fast, being the annual commemoration of the Miracle of St Theodore the Recruit and the transferred commemoration of the Falling Asleep of Cyril, Teacher of the Slavs.

Apologies for getting this one out too late to work in the UK. The complicated nature of being the first Matins I've done with Festal parts and the intricate combination of the Saint with the Triodion really threw me for a loop.

The Order of the Midnight Office for Saturday Mornings, with the inclusion of some of the festal directives for the transferred feast of St Cyril.

While it has become common in Greek recension churches (Greek Orthodox, Antiochean, Melkite, Romanian, etc) to celebrate Small Compline with sections of the Akathist on Fridays, the Slavic tradition (Ruthenian, Ukrainian, Russian, Belarusian, etc) follows the directives of the Triodion to do Great Compline (although simpler with less singing) with the Canon of the Departed in the Tone of the Week. This week, due to the concurrence of the transferred feast of St Cyril, the Troparion and Kondakion after the 1st and 3rd parts of Great Canon are of St Cyril instead of the Departed.

The Order of 9th Hour, Typika, and Vespers for Clean Friday, with the yearly commemoration of the Miracle of St Theodore the Recruit. Due to it not being lawful to celebrate feasts of a certain rank or higher during the first week of the Great Fast, the Feb 14th commemoration of the Falling Asleep of Constantine, who in monastic tonsure was named Cyril, Teacher of the Slavs, is moved to the 1st Saturday and celebrated in conjunction with St Theodore. Therefore this Vespers is also in place of Great Vespers for Cyril.

The order of Tersext-Trikheti-3rd and 6th Hours for the 1st Friday of the Great Fast, with the prophecy from Isaiah.

The Order of Orthros and Prime for the 1st Friday of the Great Fast, when it falls in a week of Tone 4 and on Feb 16, the commemoration of the Holy Pamphilius and his companions.

The Order of the Midnight Office for the Fridays of the Great Fast.

The order of Great Compline for the 1st Thursday of the Great Fast with the 4th and final part of the Great Penitential Canon of St Andrew of Crete.

The Order of the 9th Hour, Typika, & Vespers for the 1st Thursday of the Great Fast, with the saint of Friday the 16th of February commemorated at Vespers, St Pamphilius and his companions.
