Little Office of the Blessed Virgin Mary: 1867 John F. Fowler Edition by Jim Gar

Description: Little Office of the Blessed Virgin Mary by Jim Garlits Ed Thinking about praying the Liturgy of the Hours, the Catholic Churchs official daily prayers? Many people are intimidated by the common hurdles associated with this noble task: The multiple volumes, the flipping back and forth to the correct page, not to mention the cost. Fear not! Enter "The Little Office of the Blessed Virgin Mary," a daily cycle of liturgical prayer almost as old as the longer Liturgy of the Hours, but much shorter and easier to incorporate into your daily prayer life. This version of the "Little Office" is adapted from the 1867 Fowler edition. What elevates this version above all the others is the touching meditations at the beginning of each hour. For example, from the hour of Terce: O divine and adorable Lord, Jesus Christ, who has graciously redeemed us by thy bitter passion and death, we offer up this hour of Terce to thy honor and glory, and most humbly beseech thee through the torments thou didst endure in being cruelly scourged at a pillar, crowned with thorns, and unjustly condemned to be crucified, to grant us patience and longanimity under the scourges of temporal afflictions, courage to walk in the thorny road to the narrow gate, which opens to bliss, and perseverance under all the crosses of this life, which are the portion of the elect, that by suffering for our sins we may fully satisfy thy divine justice on earth, and may enter into thy glory immediately after death. Amen. As an added benefit, those who love Our Lady will appreciate that these short prayers allow them not only to sanctify the day, but to do it using a text that is at reverent and readable; the language exemplifies noble simplicity and unembellished piety, in the most beautiful tradition of good liturgical prayer. It is appropriate both to those who attend the ordinary and extraordinary forms of Catholic Mass. This updated version restores the traditional ordering of the prayers and places it in a user-friendly format that eliminates that distracting flipping pages back and forth.
