[quote author=peter_saad link=topic=13124.msg154193#msg154193 date=1333553743] In my church, and I'm sure many others, the liturgy has no spirituality to it at all. With kids running, crying, and so many other things going on, It's honestly hard for…

This is a very important matter. All the weaving must be done by Saturday night. The procession of the Cross and Psalm Sunday in Matins is the one in which the za'f needs to be handled. After that, it must be put aside so that we can pray the liturg…
