Please note that, as always, Archpriest Mark Rowe, Vicar General for ROCOR Western Rite Communities, coordinates for each parish the usage it will follow.

PROCESSION
antiphon, tone 1: When we shall come before the presence of the Lord, on the day of judgment, there will there be thousands of thousands, and tens of hundreds of thousands, of the angels, of cherubim and seraphim. There will the choirs of the saints stand round about, of patriarchs, of the prophets, of the apostles, and the martyrs, and all the assemblies of the saints. There the hidden secrets of our hearts shall be manifested. But Thou, O God, most merciful Father, take away from us that judgment of condemnation wherewith the works of them that do wrong shall be punished without end. And grant unto us that we may inherit the kingdom of eternity with Thy chosen.

Epistle
A reading from the epistle of blessed Paul the apostle to the Corinthians. Brethren: We exhort you that ye receive not the grace of God in vain. For He saith: “In an accepted time have I heard thee, and in the day of salvation have I helped thee.” Behold, now is the acceptable time. Behold, now is the day of salvation. Giving no offence to any man, that our ministry be not blamed: but in all things let us exhibit ourselves as the ministers of God, in much patience, in tribulation, in necessities, in distresses, in stripes, in prisons, in seditions, in labours, in watchings, in fastings, in chastity, in knowledge, in long-suffering, in sweetness, in the Holy Ghost, in charity unfeigned, in the word of truth, in the power of God, by the armour of justice on the right hand and on the left, by honour and dishonour, by evil report and good report. As deceivers, and yet true; as unknown, and yet known; as dying, and behold we live; as chastised, and not killed; as sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; as needy, yet enriching many; as having nothing : and possessing all things. [2 Cor 6:1-10]
Graduale, tone 2

Tract, tone 2
He that dwelleth in the help of the Most High shall abide in the shelter of the God of heaven.
V. He shall say unto the Lord, Thou art my helper and my refuge : He is my God, and I will hope in Him.
V. For He shall deliver thee from the snare of the hunters : and from every troubling word.
V. With His shoulders will He overshadow thee : and under His wings shalt thou have hope.
V. With a shield will His truth encompass thee : thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night.
V. Nor for the arrow that flieth by day, nor for the thing that walketh in darkness : nor for the mishap and demon of noonday.
V. A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at Thy right hand : but unto thee shall it not come nigh.
V. For He shall give His angels charge over thee : to keep thee in all thy ways.
V. On their hands shall they bear thee up : lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.
V. Upon the asp and basilisk shalt thou tread : and thou shalt trample upon the lion and dragon.
V. For he hath set his hope on Me, and I will deliver him : I will shelter him because he hath known My name.
V. He shall cry unto Me, and I will hearken unto him; I am with him in affliction.
V. And I will rescue him and glorify him; with length of days will I satisfy him; and I will show him My salvation.

R. And with thy spirit.
V. The continuation of the holy gospel according to Matthew.

At that time Jesus was led by the Spirit into the desert, to be tempted by the devil. And when He had fasted forty days and forty nights, afterwards He was hungry. And the tempter, coming, said to Him: If Thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. Who answered and said: It is written, “Not in bread alone doth man live, but in every word that proceedeth from the mouth of God.” Then the devil took Him up into the holy city, and set Him upon the pinnacle of the temple, and said to Him: If Thou be the Son of God, cast Thyself down, for it is written: “That He shall give His Angels charge over thee, and in their hands shall they bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.” Jesus said to him: It is written again, “Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.” Again the Devil took Him up into a very high mountain, and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them, and said to Him: All these will I give thee, if falling down Thou wilt adore me. Then Jesus saith to him: Begone, Satan, for it is written, “The Lord thy God shalt thou adore, and Him only shalt thou serve.”4 Then the Devil left Him, and behold, Angels came : and ministered to Him. Mt 4:1-11
[Blessed is He that cometh in the name of the Lord.]

Secret: We offer our sacrifice of the beginning of Lent in a festive manner, beseeching Thee, O Lord, that as we abstain from carnal feastings, we may also forbear from harmful pastimes. Through...
Preface: ... everlasting God, through Christ our Lord. Who throughout forty days and nights consecrated this fast, not being hungry. For afterwards was He hungry, not so much for the food of mankind as for their salvation. Neither did He lust for the feastings of worldly foods, but He longed rather for the sanctity of their souls. For His food is the redemption of the peoples; His food is the whole estate of good will. For He hath taught us to busy ourselves not only with that food which is spread out at earthly banquets, but also with that food we partake of by reading the divine Scriptures. By Him angels praise...
