In the past an abreviated Vespers Service has been posted on this site. I've used it during the Great Fast and would like to use it again. Will it be posted?

Ron, if you are without a priest at each of the priest's invocations, doxologies, etc. one typically says "Through the prayers of our Holy Fathers, O Lord Jesus Christ our God have mercy on us", and instead of saying the ektenies of the deacon one says "Lord have mercy" three times, twelve or forty.

A very nice set of Reader's Services that can be said without a priest can be found on Father John Whiteford's site http://pages.prodigy.net/frjohnwhiteford/horologion.htm
