Historical prayer books Item Info

These are historical prayer books of the Holy Ghost Ukrainian Catholic Church. The priest’s servicebook that lies open is from the early 1900s, and is in the old Church Slavonic language. The “Prayerbook for the Christian Family,” open to an icon of the Holy Family, was printed in the city of Zhovkva (present-day Ukraine), in 1936. The closed book, embossed with a Chalice on the cover, was printed in Philadelphia in 1954. It is the Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom – regularly prayed, like the Roman Catholic Mass.
