Liturgia das horas - Vésperas v2.0.16

Fantastic Liturgy of the Hours app

The Divine Office (Liturgy of the Hours) is the set of sentences (Psalms, antiphons, hymns, prayers, biblical readings and others) that the Church has organized to be recited at certain times each day. The divine office forms part of the liturgy and, as such, constitutes, with Holy Mass, the public and official prayer of the Church.

Its purpose is to consecrate the hours to the Lord, extending the communion with Christ carried out in the Sacrifice of the Mass. The one who prays at the office takes a break from work to pray with the Church, even though he is physically alone. While private prayer is undoubtedly necessary, it is also necessary that we formally pray together as a Church.

The Liturgy of the Hours is one of the ways the Church lives the Passover of Jesus Christ in the daily, weekly and annual rhythm of time. Through the prayer of the hours, the Christian is launched into the mystery of the Lord's death and resurrection, into the noblest and most definitive expression of his human activity, the communion of his God.

The Liturgy of the Hours is the prayer of the total Christ, Head and Body; therefore, we must pray for Christ and with Christ.

The ideal of the Liturgy of the Hours is its community recitation, hence the recommendation for common recitation by priests, religious, lay people and even families, especially on Lauds and Vespers.

This prayer is entrusted with a specific mandate mainly to priests and religious of all kinds.
