Pray the Liturgy of the Hours

Hying Logo

The Liturgy of the Hours is the official prayer of the Church and serves as an enriching compliment to the daily Mass.

A compilation of psalms, Scripture, prayers, and writings of the saints, the Hours are divided into seven daily prayer times with morning and evening prayer as the pillars.

Priests, deacons, most Religious, and many lay faithful pray it on a daily basis and find its rhythm and cycle to be rich spiritual fruit.

Having prayed it myself for almost 40 years, the psalms and readings have become comforting and holy companions on my path to God.

As we ponder Christ’s crucifixion and death at Calvary on Good Friday, it is appropriate to remember that Christ died for all our sins, including the sin of abortion committed by so many in our country.
