TLM Calendar: fraternitypublications.com Dear Parishioners of St. Barnabas Parish,

On behalf of Fr. Patrick Hayden, Fr. Jim Michler, former missionaries of the Archdiocese of St. Louis, and all the parishion- ers of Maria Reina Parish in La Paz, Bolivia, thank you for your abundant generosity you have shown to Maria Reina Parish throughout the many years. Having been blessed to work for the Mission Office these past 5 years, I can personally attest that your and sacrifices have greatly affected the lives of thousands of people each year at Maria Reina Parish and beyond. Because of your support, people in Bolivia have received the Sacraments, spiritual care, and formation opportunities other- wise unavailable to them.

Even though our St. Louis priests will soon no longer be physically present in Bolivia, please continue to pray for the people of Bolivia, especially those of Maria Reina Parish, and all missionaries throughout the world. As Pope Benedict XVI said in his Message for World Mission Day 2007, “Let it not be forgotten that the first and priority contribution that we are called to offer to the missionary action of the Church is prayer.” Your prayers truly matter and have power, sustaining the missionary work of the Church throughout the world.

Thank you again for your support of our Bolivian brothers and sisters in Christ.

Kim Becvar Interim Director Mission Office

GOODBYE OUR LITTLE SISTER PARISH

WE WERE BLESSED TO BE ABLE TO HELP YOU

MAY GOD BE WITH YOU ALWAYS

Vespers

(Evening Prayer) Every Saturday at 4:30 PM

Lauds

(Morning Prayer) Every Sunday at 8:00 AM

Vespers and Lauds are two of the most important parts of the Divine Office (or ). The Divine Office is the official set of prayers marking the hours of each day and sanctifying the day with prayer. It consists primarily of psalms supplemented by hymns, readings and other prayers and antiphons. Together with the Mass, the Divine Office constitutes the official public prayer life of the Church. It also forms the basis of prayer within .

Praying the Divine Office is an obligation undertaken by priests and deacons intending to become priests. The laity are under no obligation to do so, but “are encouraged to recite the divine office, either with the priests, or among themselves, or even individually” (CCC 1175).

The Divine Office, along with the Mass, has been the Church’s liturgy from the earliest times. Early Christians continued the Jewish practice of reciting prayers at certain hours of the day or night. In the Psalms we read “O Lord, in the morning Thou dost hear my voice; in the morning I prepare a sacrifice for Thee, and watch” (Psalm 5:3); “At midnight I rise to praise Thee, because of Thy righteous ordinances” (Psalm 119:62); “Seven times a day I praise Thee for Thy righteous ordinances” (Psalm 119:164). The Apostles observed the Jewish custom of praying at the third, sixth, and ninth hours, and at midnight (Acts 10:3, 9; 16:25).

From the time of the early Church, the practice of seven fixed prayer times have been taught. (c. 170 – c. 235) instructed Christians to pray seven times a day “on rising, at the lighting of the evening lamp, at bedtime, at midnight” and “the third, sixth and ninth hours of the day, being hours associated with Christ’s Passion.” The eight parts, or hours, of the Divine Office are:

+ (at midnight, or during the night) +Lauds (on rising) + (the first hour of the day) + (the third hour of the day) + (the sixth hour of the day) +None (the ninth hour of the day) +Vespers (at the lighting of the evening lamp) + (at bedtime)

Beginning on May 1 (the feast of St. Joseph the Worker), we will be praying Vespers on Saturdays at 4:30 PM and Lauds on Sundays at 8:00 AM, both according to the 1961 . The character of Lauds is that of praise; of Vespers, that of thanksgiving. Both follow a similar format:

+Invitatory (“Deus in adiutorium meum intende…”) +Five psalms or parts of psalms, each preceded by and followed with an antiphon +The chapter, a short biblical verse +The hymn, which varies according to season and feast, followed by its versicle and response +The Canticle of Zechariah (“Benedictus…”) at Lauds or the Canticle of Mary (“Magnificat…”) at Vespers, preceded by and followed with an antiphon +The collect of the day, followed by commemorations of any concurring feasts

We look forward to you joining us in prayer! The chants with a translation will be available for all in attendance.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact Ryan P. Murphy, Director of Music and Liturgy, at [email protected].
