SUMMARY:Presanctified Divine Liturgy
DESCRIPTION:The Liturgy of the Presanctified Gifts is a service for the distribution of Holy Communion on the weekdays of Lent. Because Lent is a season of fasting and repentance\, and the regular Divine Liturgy has a joyful character not in keeping with these seasonal themes\, the more somber Presanctified Liturgy is offered on weekday evenings\, or sometimes in the morning.

SUMMARY:Holy Monday Matins
DESCRIPTION:This is the first of the “Bridegroom Services.” Having given up the Feast of Palms\, we begin Holy Week with the first of three Bridegroom Matins services\, in which we remember Christ as the Groom of His Bride\, the Church\, as He goes to His saving Passion. On Holy Monday\, Christ is compared to the Old Testament patriarch Joseph\, who was made to suffer at the hands of his brothers\, but was ultimately glorified. The day is also dedicated to Christ’s cursing of the fig tree\, which symbolized the fruitless council of the Jews.

SUMMARY:Holy Monday Presanctified
DESCRIPTION:The Presanctified Gifts are served on the first three days of Holy Week\, so that through the Eucharist we may have strength to complete the time of Holy Week and see the day of the Resurrection. The Old Testament readings from Exodus and Job show us that righteousness is often rewarded with suffering\, and that Christ is going to Jerusalem to demonstrate this in its fulness. The Gospel reading from St. Matthew has Christ explaining the signs of the future tribulation and the lesson of the fig tree\, which is commemorated in the services of Holy Monday.

SUMMARY:Holy Tuesday Matins
DESCRIPTION:This is the second of the “Bridegroom Services.” Holy Tuesday is dedicated to the parable of the ten virgins. Through this parable\, we are reminded to imitate the wise virgins\, who trimmed their lamps and were prepared for the coming of the Bridegroom\, while the foolish virgins wasted their time and the door was shut in their faces. There is still time to repent and change our way of life.
