Does anyone have any information on the Optina “Kellia” Lectionary reading plan? What its origins are or any other details? I think it’s an Eastern Orthodox lectionary but not sure and would love any information anyone has on it. Thanks 😊
http://www.orthodox.net/ustav/lectionary-for-the-kellia.html Please include the kellia lectionary as an option under reading plans. This is a traditional Orthodox plan that is best implemented as a reading plan so it can be accomplished sooner than the more complex lectionaries.

Optina is a monastery in Russia. Kellia is an ancient Egyptian monastery.
The Logos implementation is a lay version as shown in the link above. Like most of the traditional churches, scripture reading emphasizes the psalms and gospels - the rest of the scripture is read but on a yearly or two year cycle in the office of readings.
