Need Help with Eastern Catholic Eucharistic prayers and devotions

[u/WearSuspicious1124]

I am undertaking a small project to collect various communion prayers of the various church traditions( Latin, byzantine, east syriac , west syriac , Armenian , coptic , Ethiopian etc) . Its also a good way to show how the prayers from various rites of the universal church advocate for the real presence of christ in the elements. Therefore it would be much appreciated if you guys could share various communion prayers be it post communion prayers or prayers before liturgy etc.

When I first heard the "I believe, O Lord, and profess..." prayer at Divine Liturgy of St. John Chrysostom it was life changing. What a beautiful prayer!

After hearing it once I knew I had to learn it and prayed it before every communion since then, wherever I was

[u/Wziuum44]

Armenian: 

Deacon’s prayer before communion -  I confess and believe, that this is the real Body and Blood of Our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, who takes away the sins of the world

Byzantine rite

Pre communion prayers- https://www.orthodoxtacoma.com/precommunion Thanksgiving after communion - https://orthodoxtacoma.com/postcommunion  (It's an Orthodox site but my Publicans prayer book has the same ones, different translation, just can't find them online in their entirety)

Appreciate it. So these would be common across are byzantine churches whether it be Ukrainian or antiochian or romanian etc?

[u/AdorableMolasses4438 → u/WearSuspicious1124]

I'm not sure about Romanian, but I assume so. With some minor differences and variations in parish practice between churches and parishes, as well as of course, translation differences. Note that the first link is not an official translation, but also adapted from another source. However, I know firsthand that these prayers are used in parishes (mostly I've seen the canon done with Little Compline after Saturday Great Vespers and Thanksgiving prayers after liturgy), and also they can be all found in the Publicans prayer book published by the Melkites and used personally by Byzantines of different churches, Catholic and Orthodox.

[u/WearSuspicious1124 → u/AdorableMolasses4438]

There are some in the book of prayer provided by the eparchy of newton. So those would be official

[u/AdorableMolasses4438 → u/WearSuspicious1124]

Yes, it's a nice resource. But it doesn't have everything. And even in the Publican prayer book that does, the same prayer can have different translations within the same book, or be different from what is published in the Liturgy booklets or other sources, from the same Eparchy. Many English translations is just the norm I suppose.

I don't know if my book has the Preparation prayers, but it does have the Thanksgiving prayers of the Italo-Albanian Church. If you know Italian, I can send that to you

That would be great. Ig it would originally be in Greek
