Christ
our God, who is worshiped and glorified at all times and in every hour
in heaven and on earth; who is most patient, loving and kind; who loves
the just and shows mercy to sinners; who calls all to salvation through
the promise of the blessings to come; Lord, at this time receive our prayer
and direct our lives according to Your will. Bless our souls and bodies.
Correct our thoughts and purify our minds. Protect us from all evil and
distress. Surround us with Your holy angels, that guided and guarded by
them, we may attain the unity of the faith and the knowledge of Your unapproachable
glory, for You are blessed forever and ever. Amen.
Learn
Church Slavonic - A wonderful set of web pages, sponsored by the Orthodox
Christian Information Center (ROCOR), that teaches you to speak the rich
language of Christ’s Holy Body, The Church. Learning requires downloading
and installing an E-Tutor (version 1.0) plug-in for Netscape or Explorer.
Instructions at the site are concise, though somewhat confusing. But if
you precisely follow the instructions, you’ll be using the course material
in no time.
