A simple way to build a bit of silence and chant into your day. "From the Poustinia" features a simplified service of morning prayer using the resources of the Book of Common Prayer (1979) in plainsong chant. I also draw on the Episcopal Church's "Hymnal 1982", the Plainsong Psalter and other resources. Each day features a chanted psalm, a reading from scripture, often a short reflection or guided spiritual practice, followed by prayers and silence. Join me in praying from the Poustinia.
Another Monday, another Feast Day: this time it's February 2nd, Groundhog's Day also known as the Feast of the Presentation of Our Lord in the Temple. That's a long title for a sweet and simple day.
The chant tone I'm using come from the Plainsong Psalter (https://www.scribd.com/doc/314420869/The-Plainsong-Psalter), although I modify the language of the Psalms occasionally using the Inclusive Language Psalter (https://yptheology.org/inclusive-psalter/)and other resources. You can download a .pdf of the Psalter if you want to chant it along with me - that's one of the best ways to learn.
