I was recently commissioned to translate some profound and inspiring works by our Righteous Father Alexei Mechev, which I put together in a booklet. Unfortunately, after printing 500 copies, circumstances changed and the one who commissioned the work has been hospitalized and called off the purchase. Since I am at an unforeseen personal loss with this, I wanted to make these never before translated texts available to my followers for only $11.95 a copy, which includes shipping and handling in the United States (orders outside the US, please use a pay button towards the bottom of this page and include $5 for a total of $16.95). I would like to sell all of these as quick as possible, and it would be great reading material for the lenten season. As an added incentive, for the first 50 people who order, I will also offer a never before published text by Fr. John Romanides titled "The Canon and the Inspiration of the Holy Scripture" free of charge.

Questions and Answers on the Presanctified Liturgy - Part 5 (St. Symeon of Thessaloniki)


By St. Symeon, Archbishop of Thessaloniki
 
Question 59
 
Why is the Presanctified Liturgy not celebrated on other days of the year?
 
Answer
 
Presanctified should not be celebrated on days other than those established, because this has not been handed down to us. He who does contrary to what has been handed down is subject to the rule. “Keep,” says Paul, “the traditions which you were taught, whether by word or our epistle” (2 Thessalonians 2:15). The same must be observed regarding everything that has been handed down to us since the beginning.
