Paraklesis to the Most Holy Theotokos (Corrected Rubrics)
The Paraklesis to the Most Holy Theotokos (corrected rubrics) What is the Paraklesis? The Paraklesis is a service of supplication for the welfare of the living. It is addressed to the Most Holy Theotokos or a Saint whose intercessions are sought through the chanting of a supplicatory canon and other hymns. The most popular Paraklesis Service is that in which the supplicatory canon and other hymns are addressed to the Most Holy Theotokos. Who authored the Paraklesis to the Most Holy Theotokos? The Small Supplicatory Canon to the Most Holy Theotokos was authored by Theosterictus the Monk (9th century), and the Great Supplicatory Canon to the Most Holy Theotokos was authored by Emperor Theodore I Ducas Lascaris (13th century). When is the Paraklesis to the Most Holy Theotokos celebrated? Though it may be celebrated at other times during the year (in time of particular need, at the request of one of the faithful, or, as in some parish churches, every Wednesday or Friday evening), it is traditional that the Paraklesis Service, with the chanting of either the Small or Great Supplicatory Canon to the Most Holy Theotokos, be celebrated each evening during the Dormition Fast (August 1st through 14th) except on Saturday evenings, on the eve of the Transfiguration (August 5th), and on the eve of the Dormition (August 14th) when no Paraklesis is celebrated. How do I know which Supplicatory Canon is to be chanted? Outside the Dormition Fast it is always the Small Supplicatory Canon which is chanted. During the Dormition Fast, however, the Typikon prescribes that the Small and Great Supplicatory Canons be chanted on alternate evenings.

A Concise Glossary of the Genres of Eastern Orthodox Hymnography
Journal of the International Society for Orthodox Church Music Vol. 4 (1), Section III: Miscellanea, pp. 198–207 ISSN 2342-1258 https://journal.fi/jisocm A Concise Glossary of the Genres of Eastern Orthodox Hymnography Elena Kolyada [email protected] The Glossary contains concise entries on most genres of Eastern Orthodox hymnography that are mentioned in the article by E. Kolyada “The Genre System of Early Russian Hymnography: the Main Stages and Principles of Its Formation”.1 On the one hand the Glossary is an integral part of the article, therefore revealing and corroborating its principal conceptual propositions. However, on the other hand it can be used as an independent reference resource for hymnographical terminology, useful for the majority of Orthodox Churches worldwide that follow the Eastern Rite: Byzantine, Russian, Bulgarian, Serbian et al., as well as those Western Orthodox dioceses and parishes, where worship is conducted in English. The Glossary includes the main corpus of chants that represents the five great branches of the genealogical tree of the genre system of early Christian hymnography, together with their many offshoots. These branches are 1) psalms and derivative genres; 2) sticheron-troparion genres; 3) akathistos; 4) canon; 5) prayer genres (see the relevant tables, p. 298-299).2 Each entry includes information about the etymology of the term, a short definition, typological features and a basic statement about the place of a particular chant in the daily and yearly cycles of services in the Byzantine rite.3 All this may help anyone who is involved in the worship or is simply interested in Orthodox liturgiology to understand more fully specific chanting material, as well as the general hymnographic repertoire of each service.

Mode pl. 4 Psalm 75 Pray and return to the Lord Your God Verse: In Judah God is known; His name is great in Israel Brethren, salvation is nearer to us now than when we first believed; the night is far gone, the day is at hand. Let us then cast off the works of darkness and put on the armor of light; let us conduct ourselves becomingly as in the day, not in reveling and drunkenness, not in debauchery and licentiousness, not in quarreling and jealousy. But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to gratify its desires. As for the man who is weak in faith, welcome him, but not for disputes over opinions. One believes he may eat anything, while the weak man eats only vegetables. Let not him who eats despise him who abstains, and let not him who abstains pass judgment on him who eats; for God has welcomed him. Who are you to pass judgment on the servant of another? It is before his own master that he stands or falls. And he will be upheld, for God is able to make him stand.

Liturgical Miscellany1
UNIT 1B LITURGICAL THEOLOGY 19a: Liturgical Miscellany1 Marriage – Funeral & Burial / Memorial – Typica – Molieben / Akathist / Paraklesis – Consecrations and Blessings – Musical Chant Marriage Marriage in the Orthodox Church unlike marriage anywhere else in other Christian traditions is exclusively a sacramental service of the Church, marriage itself being conferred by the Church. In the Latin West, marriage is, in the first place, construed by the couple in legally binding vows, subsequently blessed by the Church sacramentally or non-sacramentally in Catholic and Protestant traditions respectively. In the west, the couple are held to confect the marriage as a legal entity before God by the exchange of vows, but in Orthodoxy the vows are absent and Christian marriage is exclusively sacramental, albeit received by the state as a legal contract. The Orthodox marriage service is a combination of two formerly separate rites, that of Betrothal in which rings are blessed and exchanged by the couple and the Crowning in which the couple are crowned in marriage itself. A notable element in this part of the service is the active participation of the Best Man or Bridesmaid as the Marriage Sponsor in the Crowning, who can (but does not have to be) the godfather or godmother in baptism of each partner. This person must be Orthodox and in good standing with the Church. After the Crowning and the readings the couple partake of the Common Cup and then process around the marriage table or icon whilst the choir sing hymns themed on the Martyrs and the Incarnation. The Common Cup reflects a time when the couple would have received Holy Communion after the marriage.

The Paraklesis Service
THE PARAKLESIS SERVICE The Little Supplicatory Canon to the Most Holy Theotokos The Paraklesis Service: The Little Supplicatory Canon to the Most Holy Theotokos The Paraklesis service is served during times of tribulation and each evening of the Dormition Fast (August 1-13; except August 5 and Saturdays). An Icon of the Theotokos is placed on a stand in the center of the Solea and the Royal Doors remain closed. The priest, being vested in exorasson and epitrachelion, standing on the Solea before the Icon of the Theotokos, makes three metanias and says in an audible voice: Priest: Blessed is our God, always, now and ever, and unto ages of ages. People: Amen. Holy God, Holy Mighty, Holy Immortal: have mercy on us. (Thrice) Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit: both now and ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen. All-Holy Trinity, have mercy on us. Lord, cleanse us from our sins. Master, pardon our iniquities. Holy God, visit and heal our infirmities for Thy Name’s sake. Lord, have mercy. (Thrice) Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit: both now and ever, and unto ages of ages. Amen. Our Father, Who art in Heaven, hallowed be Thy Name. Thy Kingdom come; Thy will be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Priest: For Thine is the Kingdom, and the power, and the glory: of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit: now and ever, and unto ages of ages.

For those churches using the Julian Calendar, this feast falls on August 28 in the secular calendar. The Feast of the Dormition, which is also sometimes called the Assumption, commemorates the death, resurrection and glorification of Christ's mother. It proclaims that Mary has been "assumed" by God into the heavenly kingdom of Christ in the fullness of her spiritual and bodily existence. According to Orthodox Tradition, Mary died like all humanity, "falling asleep," so to speak, as the name of the feast indicates.
