In this podcast, I will be uploading reader versions of services in the Byzantine Rite, on the Gregorian Calendar, mostly according to the usage of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church. These are meant as guides to accompany and even direct life in the domestic church. We all live much busier lives than our ancestors, whose rural living in tight-knit villages around their parish churches allowed them to live their lives to the rhythm of the Church Year. We, however, often find ourselves commuting long distances or working longer hours which don't allow us the luxury of daily church attendance. So many of us turn to home prayer rules, but resources can often be few and far between, and even when they do exist, they can be complicated and time consuming to use. That's where this podcast wants to provide some support. By making the reader services, as they would be done un-priested in home or church worship, available in an audio-only format, my hope is that more of us can be uplifted by the liturgical core of our Byzantine Spiritual and Liturgical Tradition to maintain our prayer life in our busy modern lives.
The plan is to have 5 daily uploads of the main service groups: the Midnight Office (early morning before dawn prayer), Orthros & 1st Hour (Dawn/Morning Prayer), 3rd & 6th Hour with Typika (Daytime Prayer), 9th Hour & Vespers (Late Afternoon-Evening Prayer), and Compline (Night Prayer); with modifications to this schedule according to the seasons of the church year.
At present there is no structure for ways to support the show and the large amount of work that goes into the daily production, but if you want to get in touch about support or any other topic related to Liturgy, feel free to send a message to readerantonychirovsky@gmail.com and I will do my absolute best to respond promptly.
Due to multiple requests, I am putting here some details to allow you to support me in this work: maybe buying me a cup of the mountains of coffee I am drinking working late most nights to do this in addition to my normal work.

Ending Announcement
We have reached the end of the Lenten Journey, through the grace of God. This brings an end to our daily uploads. Thank you for those of you who have been along for the ride and given your support, both in prayers and other ways.
I am turning my attention now to the Revised Julian Feed which has just finished Clean Week and is in full swing towards our shared goal of Pascha.
I hope to be uploading a few Festal services throughout the year but resuming daily uploads at next year's Great Fast. Next Year the dates of Pascha on the Gregorian and Julian Calendar coincide greatly reducing my preparatory workload and, God-willing, allowing me to include Holy Week, Paschal, and more regular daily services after this next year of preparation.
I will upload a few announcements closer to that time to remind any of you who are interested to follow the Revised Julian Feed to receive those daily uploads next year.
God bless all of you. I will you all a fruitful Holy Week and Joyous Great Day! Preëmptively, Christ is Risen! -
