April 9, 2022The Ordinariate best-selling prayer book, Divine Worship: Daily Office (Commonwealth edition), is once again back in stock with a second printing by the Catholic Truth Society.
CTS has run 1,000 new copies of the Ordinariate daily office after enthusiastic demand from Ordinariate and diocesan Catholics, and even from Anglicans outside the Catholic Church, quickly sold out the first run of 1,700 daily office books.
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 Oceania 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.
According to a review of the CTS Divine Worship: Daily Office written for the Anglicanorum Coetibus Society, "All in all, Catholic Truth Society and the Our Lady of Walsingham and Our Lady of the Southern Cross Ordinariates have done a fantastic job creating Divine Worship: Daily Office. It is truly a superb prayer book, and is in my opinion the finest Catholic breviary published in many years. Beautiful within and without, easy to learn and use, providing a complete, uncensored monthly psalter and a healthy diet of daily scripture readings, perfectly suited for busy families and clergymen alike, Divine Worship: Daily Office is a wonderful gift from the Ordinariates to the Church universal."
The Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham, in conjunction with EWTN Great Britain, has also produced a series of videos that both introduce and explain how to pray with the CTS Divine Worship: Daily Office.
The 7-part instructional videos can be watched in sequence at the U.K. Ordinariate website.
Editor's note: ACS readers interested in purchasing a copy of the CTS Divine Worship: Daily Office should act quickly given the high demand. Readers can purchase directly from CTS Books. U.S. readers may want to also check out purchasing from Blackwell's or Amazon for lower shipping costs.Related:
