Praying the Psalter for Resa

Right now there are four of us total who are able to pray the Psalter.
That's great.
Since there are 20 Kathismas,
We can split them over 5 days.
I have done the first Kathisma,
so if...
Pres. Kathy could pray Kathismas 2, 6, 10, 14, 18 over the next 5 days.
Margaret can do Kathismas 3, 7, 11, 15, 19 over the next 5 days
MamaJuliana Kathismas 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 over the next 5 days
Myself - Kathismas 1, 5, 9, 13, 17 over the next 5 days
If this is too much,
let me know.
(Don't be shy!)
We can always pray the Psalter over a longer period of time.
Also if there is anything more you need to know
about praying the Psalter*,
just leave a comment!
***
If you are reading this and know that you wish to pray a Psalm
but are not able to do a Kathisma,
here are some special ones you could pray.
Here are some that are especially appropriate:
Psalm 23, 91, 116, 119/22, 90, 115, 118
Praying any of these would be wonderful.
(Please feel free to comment and tell me which ones you love
when praying for our beloved departed)
***
Does this sound doable to everyone?
If more wish to pray, feel free to leave a comment.
If this works, the 5 days of prayer through the Psalter,
this week for Resa, then
so if more wish to join, just pick one of our sections
and pray those kathismas.
***
May the Memory of Resa be Eternal!

Lord have mercy
Lord have mercy
Lord have mercy

*I can only tell you what my Psalter says;
I am young in the faith and am still learning...
