About

The Audio Divine Office

In today’s fast-paced world, many faithful long to pray meaningful and effective prayers — prayers bringing satisfaction with the Lord — but many struggle to find the time to read and pray these sacred prayers themselves. Prayers this powerful, this globally impactful, should be easily accessible to the world at large. Our website seeks to bridge this gap by providing audio recordings of the Old Rite Divine Office, allowing the beauty of these time-honored prayers to be more easily integrated into daily life. Whether at home, on the road, or during work, listeners can join in the rhythm of the Church’s prayer without the burden of setting aside large blocks of reading time.

The Divine Office has been the heartbeat of the Church for centuries, sanctifying the hours of the day with Scripture, psalms, and sacred hymns. Yet, in the modern era, access to these prayers in their traditional form can be challenging. By offering high-quality, reverent recordings, we aim to make this treasure of the Church more accessible to all—clergy, religious, and laity alike.

This site exists to fill a vital need in the Church: providing a way for more people to participate in the daily cycle of prayer with ease and consistency. Whether you are a long-time devotee of the Divine Office or a newcomer seeking to deepen your spiritual life, our recordings offer a simple yet profound way to remain connected to the prayer of the Church. For the healing of the nations, the Church, and the family, join us in prayer as we embark upon this day.

The Old Rite Divine Office

Mass is the most important prayer in the universe and of the Church, outside of Heaven. The Divine Office is the 2nd most important prayer.

• Immerse yourself in both the Old and the New Testament on a daily, hour to hour basis

• Get to know the Holy Saints

• Understand and see how the Liturgy affects your heart life and the world around you: daily, weekly, monthly and seasonally

• Check to see how the particular Saint of the day may be fitting for your daily need

• Seek the Lord as the living and alive God that He is. He speaks fresh and living words of life pertinent to you and your daily life, words of wisdom love, comfort, encouragement, correction, direction, peace, joy, and rich contentment

• Participate and listen to the liturgy that the Holy Spirit orchestrates in Heaven, clearly on earth, joining our worship with Heaven in Himself

• See how He hears with most compassionate and undivided attention to your deepest heart and what matters to you (He answers always justly, sweetly and wisely. He sees with utmost kindness and clarity, and He judges with peace and equity)

Many can point out what is wrong with society, politics, the Church and families. Providing solutions, however, requires faithful action—like St. Nehemiah, who rebuilt Jerusalem’s walls with a sword in one hand and a tool in the other, persevering and building brick by brick.

Let us, with that same courage and faithfulness, take up daily prayer and fulfill our duties with humility and grace. Let us pray and be faithful in our daily duties; and watch delightfully and expectantly as God works in these prayers. 

For the healing of the Nations, the Church, and the Families, and above all for the consolation of God's Heart, let us be faithful.

Why Old Rite?

These are the most ancient prayers of the Church.

These are the prayers that Moses, King David and other Old Testament Saints as well as our Lord Jesus Christ, Our Lady, St. Joseph, St. Augustine, St. Catherine of Siena and all of the other Saints prayed.

King David prayed seven times a day and was protected from his enemies.

These prayers are where you can clearly see the roots of the Old Rite Catholic Church connecting to Judaism; how Jesus took the Old Testament and reconfigured everything to Himself. This shows how God is and always will be His own reference point.

These prayers satisfy the inner hungry heart, meet the need and fulfill where it says, "Man shall not live by bread alone, but on every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God." - Matthew 4:4

These are the most effective prayers that one can ever pray outside of the Holy Mass and Heaven.

This is where more of the daily Mass is explained and expounded on and the scriptures and collected quotes in the Divine Office are often the same as the Scriptures in the Mass.
