→Blessing of foods: thanks all
The article says "Foods from which the faithful have been asked to abstain during the lenten journey are blessed and eaten only after the Divine Liturgy."
Does it mean (in some places) foods which were abstained are blessed after the Divine Liturgy? I am in Japan, whose tradition is heavily influenced by the Russian tradition, and there our custom seems the priest s blesses foods (mainly eggs) after the Matin and before the First Hour.
Of course we took no food before the Divine Liturgy! --[[User:Cat68|Cat68]] 00:52, April 9, 2007 (PDT)
:::In answer to Cat68: actually, yes, at my Antiochian parish here in Austin, Texas, the foods are both blessed and eaten after the dismissal at the end of liturgy. In either case, Basil's modification looks good. [[User:Gabriela|Gabriela]] 20:26, April 20, 2007 (PDT)
Thank you for your editing, now it looks me much clearer. Gabriela, thank you for your information it's quite interesting. How lovely to learn diversity among traditions :) --[[User:Cat68|Cat68]] 04:15, May 2, 2007 (PDT)
