Summary "Book of Needs of the Holy Orthodox Church" is a collection of liturgical texts written in the late 19th century, translated into English by G. V. Shann. This work compiles prayers and services essential to various life events and rites within the Orthodox Christian tradition, addressing the spiritual needs of the faithful from birth to death. The beginning of this compilation introduces its purpose as a translation of the Slavonic service book known as "Trébnik" or "Book of Needs", which contains vital spiritual provisions for Christians throughout their lives. The preface explains that it includes omissions for accessibility and clarifications of ecclesiastical terms for the general reader while emphasizing its use in the Orthodox Church's ceremonial functions. The text is structured to guide church officials and laypersons alike, offering assistance in matters of faith and the execution of religious rites. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
