ORDO WEEK 17 SATURDAY EVENING SONG
SONGS OF THE PEOPLE OF GOD
SUNDAY EVENING PRAYER I
SEVENTEENTH SATURDAY OF ORDINARY TIME
 |
ORDINARY WEEK XVIII
PSALTER WEEK II
N.B. For Sundays the liturgical day begins with Evening Prayer on Saturday Evening, and thus the second week of the Four-Week Psalter begins tonight even though we are ending up the Seventeenth week of Ordinary Time.
===================================================
Three Options (Formats) for Praying this Evening
FULL ROMAN RITE SERVICES
Each of the Three Options contains the full official text of Roman Rite for both Morning Prayer and Evening Prayer. Links to two websites are embedded here for convenience so that one does not have to go to their websites, then locate the desired options. Both websites publish their offices early for the convenience of English speakers in New Zealand, Australia and the Philippines. On some days the correct office may not be obvious, indeed the first option could be difficult to find, since it is published in the Philippines, and they have moved on to the next hour or even next day.
Embedded links brings the additional advantages of eliminating YouTube advertisements, and of being able to choose any of three hymns to begin the Hour regardless of which format you choose
DIVINE OFFICE.ORG OPTION
Excellent model of small household size community reciting the office with sung hymn at the beginning. On some Sundays in Ordinary time, it becomes an excellent model of a small group of cantors singing the Hour. This is one of those Sundays.
Hymn: "O God, the Source and Fountain of Life"
Translation by Saint Cecilia's Abbey of "Rerum Deus Fons omnium"
SING THE HOURS OPTION
Excellent model of totally sung office mostly by one very talented young person. His father is an excellent translator of Latin Hymns. If like myself you like the translations better than the Latin, you might want to e-mail them, since they welcome your feedback. Be respectful of their love of Latin if you ask for less of it. Their love of Latin is strong, and those with a love of Latin have gravitated to this site. Encouraging them to sing both the English and the Latin might help to make this website accessible to more people.

WALKING AND SINGING WITH THE PEOPLE OF GOD
For health reasons, I walk forty to fifty minutes each morning and evening on a treadmill. The two above offices total about thirty-five minutes. Adding some of the additional options below brings the time to over forty-five minutes. The three options are interleaved by opening three tabs on the computer in front of the treadmill. With a little more dexterity, they could be interweaved on a cellphone or pad. The repetition of each psalm three time in three different formats provides a pleasing ritual experience.
