The North American edition is expected in Advent 2020 and the Commonwealth edition is expected a year later in Advent 2021.
The ‘bookends’ of Matins and Evensong will be enriched by the provision of the Lesser Hours of Prime, Terce, Sext, None, and Compline.” The Bulletin onDivine Worship of the Personal Ordinariate of Our Lady of Walsingham explained that “Morning and Evening Prayer from the prayer book tradition, together with optional office hymns and antiphons for use with the Benedictus and Magnificat. Both versions will use the Coverdale translation of the Psalter and use Ignatius Press’ second Catholic edition of the Revised Standard Version for the rest of the readings. While all of the earlier liturgical books are common to the three Ordinariates (Great Britain, North America and Oceania), the two versions of the Daily Worship are according to the geographic region with a North American version, published by Newman House Press and a “Commonwealth” version published by the Catholic Truth Society (even though Canada is part of the Commonwealth communities there will use the North American edition). This version of the Liturgy of the Hours promises to be one of the most significant contributions of the Ordinariates given the importance of the Anglican/Episcopalian tradition of parochial and cathedral prayer of the Hours. Today I was surprised to hear that the Ordinates have announced the immanent publication of two different editions of their Divine Worship – Daily Office to mark the tenth anniversary of their establishment. This mix is not immediately apparent as all of the prayers are presented in a form of Tudorized English. The newly produced books are not simply Catholic versions of earlier Anglican or Episcopalian books, but are newly composed rituals that contain a mixture of material from the Ordinary Form of the Roman Rite, the Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite, various Anglican/Episcopalian liturgical books (principally but not exclusively the different editions of the Book of Common Prayer) and newly composed material. I have a copy of the latest book Divine Worship – Pastoral Care of the Sick and Dying and I intend to post a review of it on PrayTell in the near future. Communities within these Ordinariates are permitted to use these liturgical books or the Ordinary or Extraordinary Forms of the Roman Rite as they see fit in any given pastoral situation.
#Ordinariate divine office series
Over the past few years the three Personal Ordinariates established in accordance with Anglicanorum coetibus have been gradually editing and publishing a whole series of liturgical books.
