THE ST. HELENA BREVIARY
The rich tradition of monastic prayer dates back to earliest days of the desert hermits and continues today in many forms -- including the Order of St. Helena. This monastic community of religious Sisters in the Episcopal Church invites you to join them in worship through these newly published service books.
Based on translations in the Book of Common Prayer, the Breviary
(as well as the Psalter, below) expands the way we name and worship God -- recasting texts to avoid the personal pronoun (he or she). Breviary includes the complete Psalter.
616 pages; hardcover with a ribbon marker.
Breviary Suggested Retail Price:$59.95
