In the west, the sacrifice of our Lord is payment to the Father for sin, pure and simple. That falls short of the Apostolic tradition that we find in the earliest liturgy.Dcn.

We use it on the Feast of St James (23rd October) and, I think, the Sunday after Christmas. I like it very much.<br /><br />I must say, though, that I far prefer to Alexandrian Liturgy of St Mark, which is used on the Feasts of St Mark and of St Cyril of Alexandria. The <a href="http://miadoradoscxiam.blogspot.com/2009/05/taste-of-alexandria.html" rel="nofollow">epiklesis</a> is by far the most beautiful that I have encountered. When our patronal festival has been and gone and we have had our visit from the relics of St Elisabeth, I shall resume my work on the formatting, rubricisation, and typesetting of the translation of Bishop Jerome of Manhattan, making it ready for publication, hopefully in time for St Mark's feast next year.Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04972938279831428593noreply@blogger.com
