ΑΝΘΟΛΟΓΙΟΝ ΤΩΝ ΙΕΡΩΝ ΑΚΟΛΟΥΘΙΩΝ ΤΟΥ ΟΛΟΥ ΕΝΙΑΥΤΟΥ
Ὁ σκοπὸς τῆς παρούσης ἐκδόσεως εἶναι διπλοὺς ἀφ' ἑνὸς μὲν νὰ διευκολύνη τοὺς ὀρθοδόξους Χριστιανοὺς εἰς τὴν ἐν τῷ ναῷ παρακολούθησιν τῶν ἱερῶν ἀκολουθιῶν τῶν Κυριακῶν καὶ ἑορτῶν, ἀφ' ἑτέρου δὲ νὰ προσφέρη εἰς αὐτοὺς ὑλικὸν διὰ τὴν κατ' οἴκων προσευχὴν καὶ μελέτην. Ἐλπίζω ὅτι τὸ παρὸν βοήθημα θὰ φέρη τοὺς εὐλαβεῖς Χριστιανούς εἰς στενοτέραν ἐπαφὴν καὶ γνωριμίαν μὲ τὰ ἱερὰ λειτουργικὰ κείμενα τῆς Ὀρθοδόξου Ἐκκλησίας καὶ θὰ συντελέση εἰς τὴν καλλιέργειαν καὶ ἀνάπτυξιν λειτουργικοῦ φρονήματος. (Ἀπὸ τὸν πρόλογο τοῦ πρωτοπρεσβυτέρου Κωνσταντίνου Παπαγιάννη)
The purpose of this book is twofold: to make it easier for Orthodox Christians to follow the church services on Sundays and feast days, and to provide them with material for prayer and study at home. I hope that it will help pious Christians to have a closer acquaintance with the sacred liturgical texts of the Orthodox Church and will contribute to the cultivation of a liturgical mindset. (From the prologue of the Protopresvyter Konstantinos Papagiannis)
