Service Times at All Saints
Every Sunday at 9:00 AM - Morning Prayer and Holy Communion, followed by Fellowship.
Service Bulletin for Sunday, November 22, 2009
Our parish finds great comfort in saying The Daily Offices of Morning and
Evening Prayer. Here are the proper monastic prayers that many people
say before reciting the Daily Office. They help to quiet the mind and get
focused before you begin. Traditionally, the "Triple Prayer" is
said silently...the "Prayers before the Office" are done out loud.
When done as a public Office or in a group, the singular can be changed to
plural: "Open our mouths, O Lord, to bless thy Holy Name. Cleanse our
minds..." etc.
The Prayers Before the Office
Open my mouth, O Lord, to bless Thy holy Name; cleanse my mind from all vain, evil, and distracting thoughts; enlighten my affection and kindle my will; that I may recite this Office with attention and devotion and so deserve to be heard in the presence of Thy divine Majesty. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
O Lord, in union with that divine intention with which Thou didst praise God on earth, I offer to Thee this Office.
The Offices themselves with the proper Psalms and Lessons are available here.
The Ordo Calendar determines which Lessons and Collects are appropriate for a particular day. Here are August - November, 2009.
