Loc: hoping for heaven
Can someone provide me with an Internet link to view the text of the Ruthenian Revised Divine Liturgy side-by-side with the previously used version of the Divine Liturgy? I can't seem to get my head around exactly what the changes were.

I am new to Eastern Catholicism, and not even in a Ruthenian church. But as I am considering a Ruthenian religious community, this is a matter of concern to me. I don't even know whether I should be concerned, or about what I should be concerned. Could someone point me to a side-by-side comparison of the basic Sunday Divine Liturgy, so that I can get an idea of what happened and what all of the fuss is about?

Thank you very much & God bless.

Rosa, considering the choice you are about to make (or not to), you must read this book:

Serge Keleher, Studies on the Byzantine Liturgy – 1
The Draft Translation: A Response to the Proposed Recasting of the Byzantine-Ruthenian Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom

The following is not a side-by-side comparison, but it does attempt to summarize the changes in the next books:
