The morning service of the Church is called Matins. It opens with the reading of six morning psalms and the intoning of the Great Litany. After this, verses of Psalm 118 are sung: God is the Lord and has revealed himself unto us. Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.

This service immediately precedes the Divine Liturgy. Anyone requiring confession is invited to make themselves known to the priest for this purpose during the service.
