Celtic Daily Prayer: Prayers and Readings from the Northumbria Community

Product Information

This is a voluminous work especially for a paperback - However it is a well thought out daily prayer guide in the Celtic, Neo-Celtic Christian tradition. Also available are Braille, Large Print (18 pt) and Giant Print (24pt) versions of the words of the Office and a separate booklet with the words of the Meditations from Celtic Daily Prayer Book 2. the Kindle Celtic Daily Prayer has been great as we have shared it so we can all see the same morning prayer page. We are greatly encouraged that so many people find help and inspiration from our published resources and we want to enable as many people as possible to make use of them. For this reason it is short, and can be prayed in the time it takes to boil a kettle, especially if committed to memory.

There is also clear guidance on how and when to use the material in imaginative ways, and on the benefits of utilising the imagery and themes of Celtic Christianity.My only complaint is -- and it's why I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 -- that the paperback is soon losing its morning-prayer pages since I refer to them everyday, so I wonder if the hardback wouldn't be a better choice. The selected slips may be placed where they can be seen from time to time during the day, or carried around, as a reminder for continued prayer. You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. If you wish to use part, or all, of our Daily Office (Morning, Midday or Evening Prayer) in public worship for a one-off event, you may reproduce the words in a service sheet, or in a PowerPoint presentation, providing they are not being sold. This compilation of said and sung liturgies makes the Northumbria Community's 'Daily Office available to a wide audience.

Based in Northumberland, Northern England, the community connects people dispersed across the globe. We load an article each month entitled Daily Readings during…… which provides information on the selected readings for the current month. Many (especially those whose church tradition usually scorns such gestures) find that making the sign of the cross at this juncture helps to reinforce the significance of the words.This is a resource you will want to come back to, and so I am going to minimize my own words today, encouraging you instead to dive deep into the Northumbria Community and experience all the Spirit has for you through them. Prayer is the 'heartbeat' of the Northumbria Community, and this book contains the Daily Office (morning, midday and evening prayer, and compline), which can be said, or sung to the music provided. The relevant meditation for the day of the month follows, and repetition of them month by month turns them into familiar friends – they are worth learning by heart.
