PTB: Divine Office
Television, Time Use, Lent, and the Divine Office - PrayTellBlog
by Jack Rakosky
During high school I gave up television for Lent (except for Bishop Sheen). That began a lifetime of low television viewing. In comparison to the average American male, if I had completely given up television between college and retirement I would have gained 4.5 years of waking time to do things other than watch television. That is the equivalent of more than six weeks of vacation per year.

Over the past few years the three Personal Ordinariates established in accordance with Anglicanorum coetibus have been gradually editing and publishing a whole series of liturgical books.
Over the past few years the three Personal Ordinariates established in accordance with Anglicanorum coetibus have been gradually editing and publishing a whole series of liturgical books.
The newly produced books are not simply Catholic versions of earlier Anglican or Episcopalian books, but are newly composed rituals that contain a mixture of material from the Ordinary Form of the Roman Rite, the Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite, various Anglican/Episcopalian liturgical books (principally but not exclusively the different editions of the Book of Common Prayer) and newly composed material. This mix is not immediately apparent as all of the prayers are presented in a form of Tudorized English.
While all of the earlier liturgical books are common to the three Ordinariates (Great Britain, North America and Oceania), the two versions of the Daily Worship are according to the geographic region with a North American version, published by Newman House Press and a “Commonwealth” version published by the Catholic Truth Society (even though Canada is part of the Commonwealth communities there will use the North American edition). Both versions will use the Coverdale translation of the Psalter and use Ignatius Press’ second Catholic edition of the Revised Standard Version for the rest of the readings

Several weeks ago I had the opportunity to sit down with the folks at DivineOffice.org to discuss how they got started and what the future holds for them. I was very excited to learn that this project has its roots right here in Salt Lake City. The people behind this wonderful ministry are: Dane Falkner, Denise Winters, Greg Pedroza, and Christine Sharer. Below follows a summary of our conversation.
