Seven Times a Day I Praise You!

Through the traditional prayer of the universal Church, give glory to God and unite with the saving work of Jesus Christ. This two-session event is open to adult Catholics and meets on Sept. 19 and Oct. 3 from 7 - 9 pm at the Cathedral of Saint Paul.

The lecture series, Seven Times a Day, I Praise You - Learn to Pray the Liturgy of the Hours, is an excellent opportunity for you to experience the beauty of the “official” prayer of the Church and discover why this prayer has held such a profoundly important role in the lives of Catholics throughout history. This two-evening series will explain how to pray Liturgy of the Hours and teach you how to incorporate it into your daily life.

Taught by CI instructor and Archdiocesan Director of Discipleship and Evangelization, Deacon Joe Michalak, this two-evening course will offer the lectures that cover:

• An Explanation of the Liturgy of Hours, why the Catholic Church so strongly recommends we pray it, and who must pray it.
• An overview of the basic format of this beautiful liturgy
• How to pray Morning Prayer and Evening Prayer
• How the Psalms are prayed as Christian prayer
• Praying the Liturgy of the Hours through the liturgical seasons and for feasts
• Incorporating Liturgy of the Hours into your broader prayer life
