Christ told us of the need to pray continually and never lose heart (Luke 18:1)
OFS Ireland members can choose their daily office from any of the following options. Also, the choice can be varied from day to day:
- Liturgy of the Hours using the “Shorter Morning and Evening Prayer”
Note: While both are recommended, one will suffice. - “My Life with God” Green Book with the Office of the day. A PDF can be downloaded here: Green Book Rule and Daily Office
- Divine Office: Liturgy of the Hours according to the Roman Rite (as many of the hours that is feasible) .
- The 12 (Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be)
