The Orthodox View on the Preparation for Receiving of the Holy Eucharist

Abstract

The issue of my theme is “The Unification Mystery of Christ in Church”. Therefore, we try to underline the Orthodox specific from the patristical and apologetical point of view. Therefore, one of our principal point of the analysis is the preparation of priests and believers for the Eucharistic moment in the Orthodox Liturgy. In the apologetical approach of our presentation, we try to offer an actual interpretation of this Holly Sacrament, together with his necessity on the actual society and to offer some theological solution in the actual context.
