After the Antecommunion (also called the Service of the Word, anciently the Service of the Catechumens) which includes Confessional rite, Introit, Kyrie, Gloria in Excelsis and collect, Dr. Zeile shares a meditation on the traffic jam that occurred at Nain where the multitude following the Lord of life confronted the procession of burial. The Nicene Creed and the hymn of consolation, "If Thou But Suffer God to Guide Thee" are also included.
