"The Lord summons all of us to the wedding feast of His Son, where the Divine Liturgy is celebrated, and the Holy Gifts – the Body and Blood of Christ – offered. In order to be with Christ, we must approach this correctly, with preparedness and in a worthy manner. We must prepare for the service. This does not apply to the clergy and monastics only, but to the laity, as well. The divine services must proceed properly, worthily, and triumphally, with prayer and repentance. Confessions should be made prior to the Liturgy, not during its celebration. Prayers, canons, and akathists should be read at home, and in this way we can come to the services radiant, clad in wedding garments. Thus will we truly be great guests of our King and Lord Jesus Christ, and will take active part in the feast, that is, in the Divine Liturgy… May the Lord God help us to hear this invitation.
