 For those not familiar with praying the "Hours," Night Prayer is a good place to start, and this volume is designed to make it easier. Night Prayer takes only a few minutes and is an ideal place to begin the habit of prayer with one's spouse or family. It is also a beautiful way to extend the short thanksgiving after Holy Communion at an evening Mass, since the Liturgy of the Hours is the perfect way to end your day! Add the Gospel Canticle of Simeon, and when you finish you are not only ready for a good night's sleep, but also for a happy death, as is so aptly summarized by the conclusion: "May the all powerful Lord grant us a restful night and a peaceful death. Amen." $23 (does not include local sales tax - if applicable - but shipping is included)
