Join us for a transformative four-week formation series on praying the Daily Office. Through guided Evening Prayer on Zoom, engaging teaching, practical tools, and Q&A, discover the origins, structure, and contemporary practice of this ancient rhythm of prayer—at home and in community. Closed captions available; recordings provided to registrants.
Wednesdays, October 29–November 19, 6:30–8:00 p.m. (Zoom)
Evening Prayer begins at 6:30; teaching follows at 7:00 with time for Q&A.
-
Oct 29 – Rite I: Explore the history, origins, and evolution of the Daily Office, and learn how to weave Morning and Evening Prayer into your daily life at home, incorporating the BCP's calendar and seasons.
-
Nov 5 – Rite II: Walk through the structure and components of the Office—canticles, psalms, lectionary, and seasons—and practice how they fit together.
-
Nov 12 – Enriching Our Worship: Discover resources for personal and family prayer (EOW, hymnody, psalters, apps, websites, and other publications) and consider crafting a simple Rule of Life.
-
Nov 19 – Evensong (Plainsong & Music): Experience how music supports prayer; this final session will be in-person at church, and we'll hear examples from the 1982 Hymnal’s service music and learn why we sing the Office. Time will move to approx. 7:00–8:30 pm. The Zoom broadcast will still be available.
Register: Sign up with Michael Cava to receive the Zoom link, reminders, and resources. If you have specific questions about the Daily Office or the BCP you’d like addressed, use the parish Google Form or email Michael, and we’ll do our best to include them during the series.
