Synopsis
This book of daily prayers, scripture, and meditations mixes traditional “fixed hour” prayer (morning, noon, evening, and night) with fresh, inclusive language. It offers a week-long cycle of devotion to God through the life of the Virgin Mary, traditionally recognized as first among the saints, and who has been cherished as a soul friend to Christians since the beginning of the church.
Organized upon the joys and sorrows of the Marian Rosary, this prayer book encompasses the life of Mary as she followed her son and experienced her own discipleship. It gives those who use it a deeper appreciation of the life of the woman.
It holds particular appeal for traditional prayer and study groups, like Daughters of the King, Julian of Norwich prayer groups, members of the Third Order of the Franciscans, and denominational women’s organizations, spiritual seekers, plus all those drawn to a flexible, yet regular prayer routine.

See images. Fantastic book. About the book >.>.> Redeem the time," the poet says, and this book is a means toward that end. It is a contemporary book of daily prayer that is a week-long cycle focused on devotion to God in Christ through the life of Mary. It is a book of liturgies (the word liturgy means "work of the people") that are called offices (which also means "work" and "offering"). But this office is an action and not a loca- tion; something we do rather than a place we go. So this book of officies is used to offer the work of a few minutes several times a day in the hope of redeeming the times of our lives. There are many kinds of prayer but all prayer is essentially being in relation- ship with God. This book offers both traditional and contempo- rary ways of being in the presence of God. The roots of these daily offices are in that branch of Christianity known as the Anglican Communion and, more sp cifically, the Episcopal Church of the United States of America. Their older roots stretch back to the early Chr. Seller Inventory # Batch-FM381-VG-9030
