Perhaps I’ve asked this before, so forgive my forgetfulness. Does anyone know where I can find the texts for the Maronite Liturgy of the Hours?
 
I believe the Eparchy in NY publishes a set of the Liturgy of the Hours, and they publish a shorter version as well for a good deal less money. I have the shorter one somewhere… But I do not know of any free versions.
 
The three volumes of the Prayer of the Faithful have the Maronite Liturgy of the Hours (Ramsho, Safro). They can be purchsed through stmaron.org/pubs.html.

Eyes of the Heart - Short Prayer of the Faithful is the shorter, abrigded version.

Each Maronite priest, deacon and sub-deacon should have copies of both. So, if there’s a Maronite parish nearby, you should be able to at least look through, or possibly borrow, the books from them.
 
Thank you so much for your responses. They answered my question. Hopefully one day I’ll be able to purchase the three-volume set, but that’ll be some time down the road. 😃
 
Thanks again for all your responses. I do have one more question, however. I was unable to locate a copy of the one-volume Maronite LotH (Prayer of the Faithful). Would anyone on here have a copy they’d be willing to share, or perhaps trade a prayer rope for? 😃

IIRC, the one-volume thing is called “Eyes of the Heart” or something like that. I didn’t see it among the publications (maybe I just missed it), and I really don’t know, but it may currently be out-of-print. Anyway, did you contact the seminary in DC? If not, try this: maroniteseminary.org/contact.html I don’t know if they have a secretary there these days, so it might be best to speak with the rector. He just might have a copy of two of what you’re looking for. Since you’re in NoVa, that might be the easiest thing.
 
Thanks, Malphono. I’ll try to contact the rector and see if they have anything available. As a Maronite, do you have a favorite Maronite prayerbook?
 
PM your email address. I have the Prayer of the Faithful in 3 volumes in electronic format (doc files) and I can send it to you.
 
Hello. My daughter needs to interview someone who prays the liturgy of the hours. Is there someone here who could answer a few questions?
 
I’d be willing to answer some questions. But I can’t guarantee that I’ll be helpful. 😊
 
We already got the answers we needed, but thank you so much for replying!
