In recent decades, it has enjoyed a renaissance among traditional-minded Catholics, yet few know that the Plenary Council which produced it, the Third Plenary Council of Baltimore, also produced a manual of prayers (Imprimatur 1888).</p>\n<p>This present volume, based on the prayers in that manual, bears the newly-coined name <em>Little Office of Baltimore</em>. With its peculiarly and unmistakable American pedigree, coupled with the fact that it preceded the extensive changes to the Divine Office that occurred throughout the 20th century, it is sure to be welcomed by today’s more traditional-minded English-speaking laity as well as those interested in historical Catholicism.</p>\n<p>It condenses the much larger edition of<span> </span><em>The Office of Baltimore</em><span> </span>into a beautiful, compact prayerbook to take with you throughout the day. Containing prayers for the traditional hours as well as the saints, the Blessed Mother, and Psalms for various occasions, this edition will quickly become your daily prayerbook. It is the perfect gift for someone who has just entered the Church or has received Confirmation.</p>\n<p><em>The Little Office of Baltimore</em><span> </span>especially appeals to today’s more traditional-minded English-speaking laity and those interested in historical Catholicism.</p>\n<p>It retains a strong connection to the traditional Roman office which can be traced back, in its essentials, to Saint Benedict. Relying principally on the prayers found in the manual, when necessary the compiler supplemented with material gleaned from the English translation of the Roman breviary by the Marquis de Bute (Imprimatur 1903).</p>\n<p>The result is a beautiful new resource for those seeking to deepen their prayer lives or just a greater connection to Traditional American Catholicism.</p>\n<p><strong>ENDORSEMENTS</strong></p>\n<p><em>“This is a charming little book made of refreshing poems inspired by the liturgy, and of stimulating pictures drawn mainly from monastic life. One should leisurely enjoy it and let it affect peace in the soul of an evening.”</em><br />— <strong>Fr. Francis Bethel, OSB</strong></p>\n<p>\n<script src=\"https://fast.wistia.com/embed/medias/muwkj0cg4v.jsonp\" async=\"\"></script>\n<script src=\"https://fast.wistia.com/assets/external/E-v1.js\" async=\"\"></script>\n</p>\n<p><span class=\"wistia_embed wistia_async_muwkj0cg4v popover=true popoverAnimateThumbnail=true\" style=\"display: inline-block; height: 225px; position: relative; width: 400px;\"> </span></p>","tags":[],"warranty":"","price":{"without_tax":{"formatted":"$29.95","value":29.95,"currency":"USD"},"tax_label":"Tax"},"height":"6.00","detail_messages":"","availability":"","page_title":"The Little Office of Baltimore: A Traditional Office for American Laity","cart_url":"https://tanparish.com/cart.php","max_purchase_quantity":0,"mpn":null,"upc":"9781505118452","options":[{"id":4433,"type":"Configurable_PickList_Set","display_name":"Format","required":true,"state":"variant_option","partial":"set-rectangle","condition":true,"values":[{"id":8733,"label":"Deluxe Leatherette","selected":true,"data":"Deluxe Leatherette"},{"id":10740,"label":"eBook","selected":false,"data":"eBook"}]}],"related_products":[{"id":4083,"sku":"TE8537","name":"The Little Office of Baltimore: A Traditional Office for American Laity (eBook)","url":"https://tanparish.com/products/books/the-little-office-of-baltimore-a-traditional-office-for-american-laity-ebook/","availability":"","rating":0,"brand":null,"category":[],"summary":"The Baltimore Catechism formed generations of Catholics and provided a solid foundation in the faith for millions.

The Baltimore Catechism formed generations of Catholics and provided a solid foundation in the faith for millions. In recent decades, it has enjoyed a renaissance among traditional-minded Catholics, yet few know that the Plenary Council which produced it, the Third Plenary Council of Baltimore, also produced a manual of prayers (Imprimatur 1888).
This present volume, based on the prayers in that manual, bears the newly-coined name Little Office of Baltimore. With its peculiarly and unmistakable American pedigree, coupled with the fact that it preceded the extensive changes to the Divine Office that occurred throughout the 20th century, it is sure to be welcomed by today’s more traditional-minded English-speaking laity as well as those interested in historical Catholicism.
It condenses the much larger edition ofThe Office of Baltimoreinto a beautiful, compact prayerbook to take with you throughout the day. Containing prayers for the traditional hours as well as the saints, the Blessed Mother, and Psalms for various occasions, this edition will quickly become your daily prayerbook. It is the perfect gift for someone who has just entered the Church or has received Confirmation.
The Little Office of Baltimoreespecially appeals to today’s more traditional-minded English-speaking laity and those interested in historical Catholicism.
It retains a strong connection to the traditional Roman office which can be traced back, in its essentials, to Saint Benedict. Relying principally on the prayers found in the manual, when necessary the compiler supplemented with material gleaned from the English translation of the Roman breviary by the Marquis de Bute (Imprimatur 1903).
The result is a beautiful new resource for those seeking to deepen their prayer lives or just a greater connection to Traditional American Catholicism.
ENDORSEMENTS
“This is a charming little book made of refreshing poems inspired by the liturgy, and of stimulating pictures drawn mainly from monastic life. One should leisurely enjoy it and let it affect peace in the soul of an evening.” — Fr. Francis Bethel, OSB
I’m a big fan of the Liturgy of the Hours and try my best to promote its devotion. I love the Rosary and pray it often but THIS is the prayer of the Church and this is a great way to pray it. My only critique would id recommend a helpful “how to” resource to accompany this (as I would for any LOTH book). Thankfully there are some good ones on YouTube. Great purchase!
