to guess which order your church will sing, look on the synaxarium first.
to find this, go to 'our faith' then 'daily readings' and read them first, it will encourage you, and then go to the saint of the day from that page.
have a look at which saints in the week around the sunday liturgy are famous ones and which ones have their relics in your church, or which ones are the favourite ones of your priest or singers and you can guess that you will probably sing their responses.
it's a bit of a guessing game, and the only way to be sure is to ask whoever is in charge before sunday!
