Daily Office Readings
The Daily Office, our Anglican plan for daily prayer and Bible reading, has been around for centuries, and is a spiritual practice to help us center each day in the presence of God. Below, you can find links to this week’s readings.
If you’re interested in praying and reading through the full Daily Office we recommend this website.
Ordinary Time - August 23
Grant, O merciful God, that your Church, being gathered together in unity by your Holy Spirit, may show forth your power among all peoples, to the glory of your Name; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
