5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Way for Lay Catholics to Pray with the Church, September 26, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Liturgy of the Hours (Vol. 4) (Imitation Leather)

The Liturgy of the Hours is the Official Prayer of the Roman Catholic Church, and is said by priests, nuns, and monks worldwide each day. I am a Lay Catholic and purchased this prayerbook. It has powerfully affected my relationship with Christ and His Church. It consists of psalms and Bible readings that are recited at the different hours of the day. For myself as a married man I typically say the Morning, Evening and Night prayers. It has proven an excellent way to fit prayer into a busy married life. +Peace!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great!, December 2, 2007

I wanted to buy the Liturgy of the Hours, but I wasn't able to buy all 4 volumes at once. So I've been buying them as the season for each comes. They are amazing! I used the Shorter Christian Prayer a little before, but each of these complete volumes is better. There is more variety in the prayers and it is great when it is a saint's feast day and you get to read about the saint. Not to mention the Office of Readings which often includes a homily from an early Church father! I recommend this to, well, anyone!

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful resource for prayer, December 7, 2007

This review is from: Liturgy of the Hours (Vol. 4) (Imitation Leather)

The Liturgy of the Hours is, after the Mass, THE universal prayer of the Church. Composed of Psalms, Biblical readings, intercessions, writings of the Church Fathers, and prayers specific to each day of the liturgical year, this beautiful prayer orders the day and unites each person to the other members of the Mystical Body of Christ, who are saying the same prayer the world over. I truly love this 4 volume set, finding it to be a deep well from which I daily draw the spiritual drink I need.
