Wisdom from the Holy Fathers
Many people, not understanding Divine services, especially the All-night Vigil, are bored in church and can’t wait until it’s over. In order to take delight in the services one must understand them; and for this it is good, although more difficult, to read through something – the Canon, for example – at home before services….You…should try to enter thoroughly into the services of the Orthodox Church, and they will open up to you a fount of such consolation that you will hasten with joy to God’s temple. “I was glad because of them that said unto me: Let us go into the house of the Lord (Psalm 121:1) said (Prophet King) David, and that’s what you too will say, setting our for church… Elder Barsanuphius of Optina
