Last Friday of lent

This seems rather strange, is it correct?
Also, is it the weekday or weekend Lent tune?

Following the service of Raising of Incense of the last Friday of the Holy Forty Days, the Sacrament of Anointing the Sick with all its seven prayers is prayed in the second chorus of the church. The priest then anoints the entire congregation with the oil. Following this, the Liturgy of the Word commences, beginning with the Agpeya prayers of the Third Hour and upto the Compline Hour (or the Prayer of the Veil in monasteries), then the chanting of the hymn =A=l je `fmeu`i . After the Prayer of Thanksgiving, the hymn Cw;ic amyn , followed by the hymn Nefcen] , are chanted. The priest then reads the introduction to Klinwmen ta gonata , which is followed by the congregationsí response ofKuri`e `eleycon . After this, the priest reads the Absolution as he prostrates before the sanctuary three times. The liturgy continues in the same manner as on Saturdays and Sundays, except that the hymnMegalou is chanted on the last Friday after the Synexarium, followed by Apen[oic in the Mohayar tune.
May the blessings of the Great Lent be with us all. Amen."
