Now Ready for Pre-Order: Commonwealth Edition of Ordinariate Daily Office
-
June 16, 2021The Catholic Truth Society has announced the long-awaited, and eagerly anticipated “Commonwealth edition” of Divine Worship: Daily Office is now available for pre-order. The book is soon to be on its way to the printers for publication by September 2021.
The “Commonwealth edition” of the Daily Office serves the Catholic Church’s Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham (based in the U.K.) and Ordinariate of Our Lady of the Southern Cross (based in Australia and Pacific Rim countries).* However, any Catholic (not bound to pray a particular form of the Liturgy of the Hours) can also pray with the Commonwealth edition of Divine Worship: Daily Office.
This Daily Office book is based principally on the 1662 Book of Common Prayer Morning and Evening Prayer – the shared Anglican patrimony of the two Ordinariates -- with the additional hours of Prime, Terce, Sext, None, and Compline.
The single volume office book has a leatherette cover, gold gilt pages with six ribbons. It comes to 2,000 pages in a 5”x7” format – a size comparable to Baronius Press’s 1962 Roman Missal for the people) – and includes the full lectionary and a selection of hymns.
Divine Worship: Daily Office (Commonwealth edition) costs £45 ($63 USD/ $77 CAD). You can pre-order here individual copies from CTS.
Those interested in pre-ordering bulk quantities should email CTS directly.
