To new blog followers Dema, Blue Henn, The Irish Man, Tim Powers, and l.b.63, who nicely answered my shameless plea recent invitation for people to follow Coffee&Canticles. Also to the several anonymous folks who added me on their Google Reader. Many thanks.
I want to thank Daria for her post of fr.Quigley and his explanation (and dissection) of the Breviary. I have been struggling with this issue for about 8 months or more...I initially felt that the regular prayers I was reciting was kind of bland so I sought out other things and ran into the breviary at our local religious store...I have just recently returned to following my Christian life and became thorougly confused with it...until I went to Gutenberg and downloaded the "Divine Office" I am finding it very helpful and setting me back on the right track. I am finding this site Coffee and canticles VERY HELPFUL and interesting Thank You so much for your inSPIRED direction. God Bless You Daria////

Thanks, StorminNorman! I love the name. I appreciate the encouragment. Keep in mind that much of what is in the Quigley book only applies to the pre-Vatican II breviary. The current regulations are found in the General Instruction to the Liturgy of the Hours, which you can read at this link: http://www.ewtn.com/library/curia/cdwgilh.htm
