Looking forward to Holy Week and Pascha (Orthodox - May 1)

I have a long week of services ahead starting tomorrow morning with Divine Liturgy for the Saturday of Lazarus. Then all week morning and evening. The Greek Orthodox Church I attend is 27 miles away and usually in the evenings I take a friend who lives 10 miles away. I love the services but sometimes, I admit, my mind wanders and it gets a bit tedious.

Lord Jesus Christ, son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner.

(I'm really going to enjoy meat and cheese on Pascha)

I am not ashamed to admit I usually take a smoke break in the middle of Mass. If nothing else, I return more attentive.
