Morning Prayer
Monday-Thursday, 9 AM, Chapel
We gather in our beautiful Chapel, Monday through Thursday at 9 AM, to begin our day together in prayer. We do so according to the Daily Office from the Book of Common Prayer (most of the time - Fr. Ryan likes to mix it up occasionally).
Morning Prayer takes about 20 minutes and includes scripture, traditional prayers, lessons about the saint whose feast day it is, occasionally a brief commentary on the lessons, and time to hold up our own intercessions and thanksgivings. Morning Prayer is one part of a four-fold structure of daily prayer called the Daily Office. It is a particular treasure of our Anglican heritage.
