The Liturgy of the Hours podcast, by Luther Seminary Chapel, offers prayer for wherever you may be. We mark one year since we last worshipped together in the Chapel of the Incarnation. We acknowledge this difficult anniversary as we continue our way through this season of Lent. Night prayer invites into a time of contemplation as we reflect on our losses we have endured.
We are led through this time of reflective Compline prayer by liturgists Michael Morris, Green Bouzard, and Luther Seminary student Sumner (Moose-Off). We calm our hearts and our minds now as we prepare ourselves for the presence of God.
Listen after 4 p.m. Central today on the episode page or wherever you get your podcasts.
