How the Church Books Work

How the Church Books Work

Besides presenting Holy Transfiguration Monastery’s books themselves, this website was conceived

to explain and illustrate what the Church

books are and how they are used.

We begin with The Liturgical Year Introduced, a series

of diagrams that show when the Menaion, Triodion, Pentecostarion, and Octoëchos are used throughout

the year, the difference between moveable and

immovable feasts, and how they work together.
