Russian Liturgy The Divine Liturgh Of The Holy Orthodox Catholic Apostolic Graeco Russian Church PDF Download

Excerpt from The Divine Liturgy of the Holy Orthodox Catholic Apostolic Graeco-Russian Church Baptism usually takes place on the eighth day after birth. The child is first exorcised to cast out the evil spirit, anointed with oil, and signed with the sign of the Cross. It is then immersed three times in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost. Unction with Chrism takes the place of confirmation of the Western Church, and is conferred by a Priest with Ointment consecrated by the Bishop on Thursday in Holy Week. In Russia the ointment can only be consecrated in Moscow or in Kieff. Of the Eucharist, the Longer Catechism says: As to the manner in which the Bread and Wine are changed into the Body and Blood of our Lord, none but God can understand; only this much is signified, that the Bread truly, really and substantially becomes the very true Body of the Lord, and the Wine the very Blood of the Lord.1 The Eucharist is administered to children after Baptism, and adults are expected to communicate four times yearly.
