Workshop Session I
Praying the Liturgy of the Hours
The Liturgy of the Hours, also known as the Divine Office or Breviary, is the official daily prayer of the Church, designed to sanctify the hours of each day and unite the faithful in prayer. It involves structured prayer at specific times throughout the day, using scripture, psalms, and other prayers. Judith Malachowski will show us how to incorporate this way of praying into our daily lives.
