The Diocese publishes the Services Texts to make our Orthodox Christian worship easier to execute, thus ensuring that the highest degree of holy prayer may be offered to Almighty God in all of our churches. Your input is vitally important to the Services Texts Committee. If you believe you have spotted any errors (liturgically, typographically, etc.), or if you would like to see other services that are not provided here, please directly email the Committee immediately (service_texts@antiochianladiocese.org). Your kind feedback will help in the growth and perfection of this ministry.
