The Liturgy of the Presanctified Gifts is performed on weekdays of Great Lent, wherein Holy Communion is received from Gifts (the Body and Blood of Christ) that are sanctified (consecrated) in advance - hence its name. The Service consists of Daily Vespers combined with additional prayers and Holy Communion. The Holy Gifts have already been consecrated, intincted with the precious Blood of Christ and reserved at the previous Sunday Divine Liturgy.
