Community Prayers

These pages do not constitute a book but rather a manuscript which has been printed to make it easier to read. They present a portion of an Office to be used during September and Ocotber by a few communities in each Dsitrict on a trial basis. By this means we hope to secure the opinions of about 1000 Brothers in each of the major language groups as to the wisdom of adopting an Office as our offical community prayer. The results of this experiment will supply the General Chapter with the concrete data needed to arrive at a decision.

There is a looses page marked at the top left in a box [To mark proper] and top rights in a box [III] titled Conclusions of Vespers in both copies. There is a loose page marked at the top left in a box [To mark the Psalter] and top right in a box [I] in one copy. There is no example of the loose page marked [II] for LAUDS, although all three are mentioned on page 4.
