Visual Schedule for the Divine Liturgy of St. Gregory
This spring, we began attending our local Western Rite Orthodox Church, where the Divine Liturgy of St. Gregory is celebrated. Yes! The Gregory of “Gregorian chant,” which we sing at church. This ancient rite has a lot of key differences from the Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom that is celebrated in the Eastern Rite Orthodox Church, so we needed a new visual schedule. After review and revisions and a blessing from our priest, I offer you this printable visual schedule for the Divine Liturgy of St. Gregory.
The transparent icon (not included) gives the children another way to pray, as they can hold it over their heads.
Like the visual schedule for the Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom, this visual schedule tracks 30 action or attention cues. The last page is a communication board.
We printed our copies along with a transparent icon of the Protection of the Theotokos so that the children can look through the icon in church.DOWNLOAD THE VISUAL SCHEDULE FOR THE DIVINE LITURGY OF ST. GREGORY HERE
Don’t forget to read my book, Of Such is the Kingdom: A Practical Theology of Disability, where you will find lots of other ways to include all people at church. It’s now available as an audiobook! (Link sends you to audible.)
