Hi! So I'm visiting greece next week, and I can't go away without attending a divine liturgy in Greece. I'm Catholic, and we usually have daily masses, and I would like to know if divine liturgies are also celebrated daily. I've been searching for churches that do weekday divine liturgies, but I can't find the schedules! I'm not going to be there on a Sunday, by the way.

Does anyone have information or any recommendations? i

EDIT: sorry i didn't mention the place. It's Athens

Dm me if you are!

I'm in Spain, and I have it in less than 2 hours, and I'm super nervous because it's HL for me. Good luck to everyone!!!

So since I can remember, I've always been doing this structure before bed:

One guardian angel prayer, one Ave Maria, and one our father, then asking for help and saying thank you to our mother Mary and finishing with another Ave Maria.

But now I want to start changing this and do it my own way (adding other prayers, etc.). Are there any rules, or can I structure it the way I want?

I think that each of us has different customs regarding what we pray before bed. What do you pray?

I can't find online the whole lyrics of the Axion Estin chant. The only lyrics that i find is this:

Makarízin se tin Theotókon,
tin aimakáriston ke panamómiton
ke Mitéra tu Theú imón
ke timiotéran ton Cheruvím
ke endoxotéran asigrítos ton Seraphím
tin adiaftóros Theon Lógon tekúsan,
tin óntos Theotókon,
Se megalínomen.

However, I'm listening to it on spotify and there is more lyrics.

As a student, I've seen so many times that people often have a negative view on things that you can't apply directly in practical life. For instance, I will start my philosophy degree, and people usually say, "But it's not useful." (i've also been told other things, like I'll end up under a bridge, etc., but i don't really care because philosophy is my passion and my life.). There are many more examples.

I personally disagree with useful=good and unuseful=not good because I'm tired that in this modern world we constantly need to apply everything. Why not learn things to just feel intellectually fulfilled????
