Audio of Evening Prayers April 23, 2009. (Saint George, Martyr)

Psalm 116:1-9; Psalm 116:10-19; Revelation 4:11, 5:9-12; Revelation 7:14b-17

From ancient times the Church has had the custom of celebrating each day the Liturgy of the Hours, also known as the Divine Office. In this way the Church fulfills the Lord’s precept to pray without ceasing, at once offering its praise to God the Father and interceding for the salvation of the world. Join me in praying the Liturgy of the Hours today and throughout the Easter season.

Then, free and unencumbered, bearing the shield of faith, he plunged into the thick of the battle, an ardent soldier for Christ.” – St. Peter Damian
