I really want to start praying the LOTH but I don’t have the funds to buy the set. I noticed that the pamphlets that are passed out for morning prayer at my parish is from ebrevairy.com (that is usally different from the other websites i have found) I found universalis.com and divineoffice.org and brevairy.net Most of the time they all differ from one another. Which one is right? Please help. :confused: :confused: :confused:

forgive me for asking…im not trying to be awkward, just genuinely interested…what is LOTH?
 
Universalis has their own translations and doesn’t match the printed version of the Liturgy of the Hours. It’s fine for private prayer but doesn’t work if you’re praying with others.

Divineoffice.org seems to match the printed version, at least when I’ve used it.

I’m not familiar with the third one so can’t comment.

If you’re praying with a group, you pretty much have to use whatever the rest of the group is using. I pray Vespers with a group after evening Mass. We’ve settled on Shorter Christian Prayer as our prayer book. It doesn’t have all the variations for the liturgical seasons, so if someone is using the regular Christian Prayer book, for example, they have to adapt to what the rest of the group is saying. But it all works.
