To get my children to stand still and pay attention during the consecration of the Holy Gifts after the Creed, I have them listening for the parts when they should make their cross. First, at "Take, eat...", second, "Drink ye all of it..." and third, "<br />Thine own of Thine own.." So three crosses in a row. After this, at our small parish, the children ring the bells while the choir chants the hymn to the Mother of God.<br /><br />2. Taking part in venerating the icons before Holy Communion.<br /><br />3. This is just to point out a typo in your list, since people want to print it out - under the Lord's Prayer you have "chant the Creed." Otherwise, a nice list for a child who is able to read.Mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17193693907791331800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6212550248931823866.post-74391469883586483372013-10-01T23:09:14.449-04:002013-10-01T23:09:14.449-04:00I love this!

If you don't mind, I'm going to suggest we print and put this out for the reading children.

When I was a catechumen, someone taught me to listen for the taps of the star on the diskos when the priest blessed the bread. I still listen for that part! I wish I could remember the exact time and what it is called when that happens, but I cannot. I'm sorry!Athanasiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13107488973500025470noreply@blogger.com
