The Diocese is happy to provide the following Liturgical resources to readers of this website. Some of the materials found here are produced by the Diocese, such as the diocesan translation of the Divine Liturgy of St John Chrysostom, published by St Stephen's Press. Other resources are on external websites, which provide useful information for Orthodox liturgical life.

The Divine Liturgy

The diocesan translation of the The Divine Liturgy of St John Chrysostom into English is available in full on-line. This is the full text with rubrics as published by St Stephen's Press.

Reader's Service Rubrics

Father John Whiteford in the USA has made available on-line an extensive collection of rubrics for reader's services (i.e. services where there is no priest present—for example, daily services at home). Some of the most important of these are:

• Rubrics for daily Matins as a reader's service
• Rubrics for the Typika as a reader's service
• Rubrics for Vespers as a reader's service
• Rubrics for the Moleben (prayer service) as a reader's service
• Rubrics for saying Canons and Akathists as reader's services
• Rubrics for prayers before and after meals
• General notes on reader's services
• Additional reader's service rubrics...
