Orarium

We hope to develop the idea of neo-chantries, e.g., religious houses of families, that might eventually be linked by confraternal agreements and mutual aid. Little Gidding is the neo-monastic model w/ reference to a distinctly Anglican rule of life revolving around catechism, psalter, primers, and the offices in the BCP. If you would like to start something similar, please contact us at St. Martha’s Oratory (Santa Clara, CA). We hope to release an exposition on Holy Matrimony, the benefits of KJV 1611, and a general format for what might be called “Protestant Dirges”.

  1. William Renwick has started putting out the Sarum Breviary in English, with music, which may be of interest and help: http://www.humanities.mcmaster.ca/~renwick/sarum-01.htm

    The concept of forming many “Little Giddings” is one that I have given thought to over time. It certainly gives hope to those who are trying to live the Anglican Way and find themselves distant from traditional parishes/jurisdictions. Daily Office and Lectionary is a firm basis on which all Anglicans can have fellowship one with another. Tell us more of your oratory and how things fare. Best regards, Michael

    As an Eastern Orthodox convert from Traditional Anglicanism, I am interested in your venture here. Please keep me informed! I currently use the Monastic Breviary in part, for my prayers, as well as the 1928 English book which inludes all the PB lessons for the year.
