Liturgy of the Hours - Introduction
From ancient times the Church has had the custom of celebrating each day the liturgy of the hours. In this way the Church fulfills the Lord’s precept to pray without ceasing, at once offering praise to God the Father and interceding for the salvation of the world. The Second Vatican Council showed the importance of the traditional discipline of the Church and desired to renew that discipline. It was, therefore, very concerned to bring about a suitable restoration of this liturgy of prayer so that priests and other members of the Church in today’s circumstances might celebrate it better and more effectively (emphasis added). [Decree, The Liturgy of the Hours]
For this expressed purpose, the recordings of the Hours presented here are intended to expand awareness of this Liturgy, introduce and practice the structure of this prayer, and to assist in the recitation of the Liturgy in small groups, domestic prayer and where common celebration is not possible. Listening and praying with these recordings in no way intends to be a substitute for actual participation in the Liturgy of the Hours which is always by its very nature public and not private. Hopefully, exposure to the Hours in this electronic format will encourage greater participation in the Hours both at home and in local parishes even as it offers an apprenticeship in liturgical prayer to the individual and group listeners.
