In all our houses, common prayer is celebrated according to the Liturgy of the Hours. This normally consists of morning and evening prayer in common. The Eucharist is also celebrated daily. In our colleges, high schools, and parishes, the friars celebrate Eucharist together, and often recite morning and evening prayer with students or parishioners. It is also common to celebrate communally the major feasts of the liturgical year as well as special events in the life of a school or parish.
Individual prayer can take many forms.
Our spirituality is open to anything that leads us to God through Jesus Christ. Mary, the mother of Jesus, is also important to us as one who was humble and obedient to God, and who shows us the way to God through her Son. Every local house of friars is different. In these large settings, especially in our high schools and colleges, various ministries and schedules make it more difficult to gather the entire community. But through communal prayer, lively conversations over meals, and leisure activities, the spirit of fraternity binds us as brothers and friends.
