Divine Liturgy of St John Chrysostom Á-? The First Litany of the Faithful
- 41 -
The Prayer for the Catechumens before the Holy Anaphora
Priest:
O Lord our God, who dwellest on high and
lookest down on things that are lowly, Who unto
the human race hast sent forth salvation, Thine
Only-Begotten Son and God our Lord Jesus Christ:
Look upon Thy servants the catechumens, who
have bowed their necks before Thee, and
vouchsafe unto them at a seasonable time the
laver of regeneration, the remission of sins, and the
garment of incorruption; unite them to Thy Holy,
Catholic and Apostolic Church, and number them
among Thy chosen flock.
As the priest maketh the exclamation, He maketh the sign of the
cross with the sponge over the antimins and kisseth the sponge.
Exclamation:
Priest:
That they also with us
may glorify Thy most
honorable and majestic
name: of the Father, and of
the Son, and of the Holy
Spirit: now and ever, and
unto the ages of ages.
People: Amen.
