Please join us from November 15 – December 24 as we read the Book of Psalms (The Psalter).
Here’s how the Psalms Reading Group Ministry works:
Each participant will read the entire Book of Psalms (The Psalter) twice during the forty days of the Nativity Fast.
The reading is done at home each of the forty days and at a time that suits the reader. Resources include either a bible with Septuagint numbering (The Orthodox Study Bible is an example); a copy of The Psalter; or the book Songs of Praise by Sylvia Leontaritis, which are available for sale in the Holy Apostles Resource Center (HARC).
The Psalms are divided into twenty sections (“kathismata” in Greek.) Each participant will receive a daily schedule of Psalm readings before the November 15 start date. Every reader will have a different assignment on a given day. This results in the entire Psalter being read daily through the combined effort of the group.
On Day 20, each reader will have read all the Psalms. Then, the schedule is repeated for Days 21-40 and is completed on December 24.
To participate and be assigned your place in the scheduled readings, please complete the form below by Monday, November 11. We look forward to sharing in this special ministry with you!
