Back by popular demand, this comprehensive booklet contains all the prayers necessary for an Orthodox Christian preparing to receive Holy Communion, as well as the post-Communion Prayers of Thanksgiving. Also included is the Synodal document "On the Participation of the Faithful in the Eucharist", recently approved by the Holy Synod of the Russian Orthodox Church to express its official teachings regarding proper reverence and preparation for the holiest of Christian sacraments.
The texts are taken from the best-selling "Jordanville Prayer Book" and arranged to match the usage of Holy Trinity Monastery. Comprehensive rubrics are included to guide the reader.

In a single concise booklet, the priest has all of the weapons and prayers necessary to prepare for and after communion. It's easy to carry around and insert into other texts for ready reference.

The printing and formatting are very well done, but if you are looking for a text that matches the Jordanville prayer book, this isn't really that. The Psalter translation is that of the Psalter for Prayer, rather than the Boston Psalter generally used in Jordanville texts. The other prayers also contain significant differences that are distracting to those accustomed to the previous text. The prayer to the Guardian Angel is completely different.
