  1. For Friday, May 17th, Both the Invitatory and Morning Prayer show Psalm 100. In my old Daughters of St. Paul Christian Prayer, we are advised to substitute another Invitatory Psalm (67, 95) for Psalm 100 in Morning Prayer when this occurs.

    Not sure this is a “rule”, but it does avoid some repetition.

    G-d bless y’all for maintaining this site!

  2. I have recited the office for nearly ten years. Your pod cast has breathed new life into my prayer.
    Thanks:
    May The Lord bless and protect.

  3. The evening prayer for the Ascension, under the intercessions contains the repeated refrain asking the Holy Spirit to pray on our behalf. I do not understand why we’re asking the Holy Spirit to pray since the Holy Spirit is God. The Holy Spirit is the Sanctifier. Shouldn’t we ask Him to sanctify us or to fill us with the love of God?

    • @MDL. See Romans 8:26-39

      Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we ought, but that very Spirit intercedes with sighs too deep for words. And God, who searches the heart, knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.

      Remember that Jesus is God, and yet he prayed to the Father all the time.

      I understand how it can be a difficult concept, especially if we think of prayer as petitioning for something, because Jesus and the Holy Spirit know perfectly the mind and the will of the Father. I think it as more of an acknowledgement of the Divine communication within the Godhead, and that all thing will be as as God wills them to be.

  4. Good Evening. Either Sunday 5 May or Monday 6 May 2013 the Hymn for Evening Prayer was a beautiful rendition of Magnificat Anima Mea. I didn’t have time to look up the artist and album & now I can’t find it on line. Would you please provide the information ? It was beautiful and I’d like to purchase the music for our choir at Church.
