Liturgy of the Hours - The Basics

I forget if I'd mentioned before, but I'm helping to get a group together at our parish to say Vespers a few times a week. And since I'm one of those people who figures that every new project deserves a webpage, I set up a little information page for it via Blogger. So far there's only an article with a little basic information about the Liturgy of the Hours, but there should be a bit more coming over the next few days and weeks on the history of the Divine Office and such.

So if you're looking for the elevator pitch (or maybe the long walk down the corridor pitch) on what the Liturgy of the Hours are, take a look. And if you're local, do feel free to drop by once we've got a schedule up.

One of my perpetually unfulfilled resolutions is to pray the Liturgy of the Hours. The best I seem to be able to manage is the abbreviated Evening Prayer in the back of Magnifikid.
