The Great Fast #87375 01/26/04 09:40 PM

spider Junior Member Joined: Oct 2003 Posts: 3 New York	Hi all, I have recently switched from the Roman Rite to the Byzantine Rite and had some questions as to the rules pertaining the Great Fast. I have searched the net far and wide (obviously not far enough) and haven't come up with anything very helpful. As the time is fast approaching I was hoping someone could please help me out or point me in the right direction. Thanx, Rob
