Morning and Evening Prayer: Anchoring Our Day in God

“I will praise You seven times a day because of Your righteous judgments.” — Psalm 119:164

In the Anglican tradition, prayer is not just a Sunday activity—it is the rhythm of our daily life. Morning and Evening Prayer, drawn from the Daily Office, offer us a beautiful pattern to begin and end each day in the presence of God. Rooted in Scripture and shaped by centuries of Christian devotion, these services invite us to join our voices with the whole Church in the praise of God.

The Psalms, central to these times of prayer, give language to every human emotion—joy, sorrow, hope, and repentance. As we pray the Psalms, we enter into the worship of Christ himself, who prayed them in the synagogue and on the cross.

Let us, like the Psalmist, make space each day to lift our hearts to God. Whether gathered in church, at home, or quietly in your heart, Morning and Evening Prayer connect us to the deep well of Anglican spirituality and to each other.

Come, let us worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.
