The Liturgy of the Hours sanctifies each day with prayer, by following a daily rhythm throughout the liturgical year. If you love praying with Sacred Scripture and you appreciate structure, the Liturgy of the Hours is a perfect fit. It's not a practice you'll pick up overnight - but this guide is exactly what you need to begin.

The Handy Little Guide to the Liturgy of the Hours is your easy-to-read, down-to-earth introduction to the daily prayer of the Church. In this brief booklet, author, wife, mom, and Secular Franciscan Barb Szyszkiewicz helps you understand and practice this beautiful devotion. You'll learn:

  • The different formats, settings, and ways to pray the Liturgy of the Hours
  • Who can pray it (spoiler alert: everyone!)
  • The fruits of this form of prayer and how it connects to the Mass
  • The five "canonical hours," or times of the day, when the Liturgy of the Hours is prayed
  • A quick start guide is also included, so you can begin praying the Liturgy of the Hours whenever you're ready!
