We all know that multiple Liturgies per day is a no-no. But what about services from the daily cycle like vespers or matins? If I attended a Saturday vigil, and went on Sunday to the parish that does matins on Sunday morning should I skip it or should I go for the second time? Would a priest be allowed to serve it twice?

Only the Divine Liturgy is a Eucharistic service, and is therefore only permitted to be celebrated once a day. If a church has more than one altar (it's fairly common for larger churches and cathedrals to have a second and sometimes third altar) and more than one priest, then the DL can be held on the secondary altar by the second priest on the same day.

I think only the Liturgy has that sort of restriction. I haven't heard of any canon limiting prayer service attendance. That would be funny. |

If you spend long enough on this forum, you'll come away with all sorts of weird, untrue ideas of Orthodox Christianity.
I would suggest most persons in general avoid any question beginning with why.

Would there be a restriction if attendance at DL is the only concern? For example, I might attend my own DL in the morning, but then visit the mission parish of another jurisdiction in my town that because of a rental situation has DL in the afternoon. (This is at least for me a hypothetical scenario.) |

Just trying to clear up the ambiguity of "prayer service". Thanks. |
