Slava Isusu Christu!

Some time ago someone was kind enough to post a link to a short booklet on serving at the altar. It might have been published by ROCOR and might have a blue cover. Does anyone have a link?

Thanks!!!

This would certainly be appreciated by me as well, as I have one son already serving and another one who may be vested before Christmas. With a book and their friends (who are either already serving or want to do so) they could not only practice, but learn about services besides the Divine Liturgy, perhaps.

Slava Isus Christu,
Sieglinde

Is this what you mean?

THE DIVINE LITURGY: A GENERAL GUIDE FOR ALTAR SERVERS

http://www.sarovpress.com/IconCorner/servicebooks1.html

It appears to be sold out here (the original publishers), but I'm sure that you can find it at a source like St John of Kronstadt Press in Liberty, Tennessee.

Archpriest Roman Galadza has some wonderful tips for servers on the St. Elias site (for UGCC usage):
