Liturgy
of the Hours
As
contemplative nuns destined to be part of the highest honour of being brides of
Christ, aware of the importance of the Liturgy of the Hours, as the prayer of
the
Church
that leads them into adoration, praise, and supplication of Jesus, celebrate the
hours with profound devotion and great faith and love so that, in the increasing
light of the Holy Spirit the
mind and heart are in harmony with the voice. According to the prescribed
norms, they pray the psalmody and
canticles
with precision and decorum, and a suitable tone with the due pauses and full
harmony of the voices that is suited to such a great sacrifice of praise, made
up of prayers inspired by the Holy Spirit, offered on behalf of all of creation
that encompasses the
aspirations, questions, joys, and sufferings of all humanity and associates it
with the Heavenly Liturgy.
