Arriving at a church or temple, ask the employee to give you a health form. If there is no such form, then on an ordinary sheet of paper depict an eight-pointed Orthodox cross at the top, write the title “On Health” below. You can enter in one note up to 10 names of relatives and friends. If you want to mention more people in the note, write their names on two forms. Each line contains one name.

The order of writing names in a note should be as follows. If you are going to mention the clergyman, then first write down his name indicating the dignity, the first to go are the servants of the highest dignity, the monks. Only after that do the names of ordinary Orthodox laity fit in - your relatives, people you know. Adult men are also mentioned first, followed by women, after adolescents, girls, adolescents and infants (first male, then female). All people mentioned must be baptized.
