To know that nuns and priests follow a prayer schedule as mentioned down was very touching to me.In times like this when our mind wanders and is not even to focus daily even for few minutes on the Lord, it is amazing to know that around the world there are people sending incenses of prayers pleasing to the Lord.
eight hours of prayers followed by catholic nuns and priests-
* at night
* at the time of dawn
* Early Morning Prayer (First Hour = 6 a.m.)
* Mid-Morning Prayer (Third Hour = 9 a.m.)
* Midday Prayer (Sixth Hour = 12 noon)
* Mid-Afternoon Prayer (Ninth Hour = 3 p.m.)
* Evening Prayer ("at the lighting of the lamps")
* Night Prayer (before retiring)
