It's been decades since we've had the Presanctified Liturgy regularly celebrated in Lent at our parish. I've had a question come up, 🙋🙋♂️🙋♀️ and I thought it best to answer here 🗣️
Q: How do we prepare for Communion at the Presanctified Liturgy?
A: Through prayer, fasting, and recent Confession.
-
-
-
NB: Confession won't be available during the Presanctified Liturgy. (It is available after Lenten Matins, which is at 6:30am on days prior to the Presanctified Liturgy, or on the weekend prior, or by appointment).
Thank you all! If you have any further questions, please ask Fr Andrew directly.

A: Through prayer, fasting, and recent Confession.
-
Prayer: as normal. The prayers can be read on the day (ie on Wednesday), or could be read the day before (ie Tuesday).-
Fasting: Communing in the evening typically means fasting from midday until Communion. (If you require a dispensation for health reasons, please speak to your priest [and if that's Fr Andrew, message him directly]). -
Recent Confession: as normal. NB: Confession won't be available during the Presanctified Liturgy. (It is available after Lenten Matins, which is at 6:30am on days prior to the Presanctified Liturgy, or on the weekend prior, or by appointment).
