<br>Be sure to check out my <font color="red"><i>Hours and Typika</i></font color> at http://www.geocities.com/jbockman3rd/start_here.html, espeially if you live far from a church or cannot get to one easily.
<br>
<br>For a daily Greek Orthodox lectionary, try the <font color="red"><i>Menologion 3.0</i></font color> by Mr. Michael Purcell at http://www.geocities.com/jbockman3rd/menologion_3.0.html. (You will find my Greek Bible way down towards the bottom of Mr. Purcell's link. But don't bother clicking on it because AOL pulled the plug in Oct. 2008, and all those AOL sites went whoosh into cyber-oblivion! I guess AOL stands for "All Overnight Loss".)
