The Liturgy of the Hours Podcast, by Luther Seminary Chapel and Augsburg University Campus Ministry.

Lent relates to the Old English for lengthening. Perhaps what is lengthened in Lent is us our growth, our pilgrimage, our faith practices, our attention to Jesus.

This episode of Night Prayer is led by Luther Seminary Alumni. Josh and Sally Messner offer a chanted night prayer with notes like a night sky -- so clear that you can see the stars. Jenna Bergeson leads the spoken liturgy.

We are grateful to gather for night prayer in this season of Lent and to be led this week by our liturgists Zach Busch and Jearlyn Steele.

Night Prayer in Lent, 4B

The Liturgy of the Hours, from Luther Seminary Chapel and Augsburg University Campus Ministry.

We live in weary times. We seek to be awake, keep watch, hold vigil.

We are led this week by Paul and Elizabeth Damico-Carper with the spoken liturgy by Luther Seminary student Ben Cox. This rest is not an abandonment of all that we hold in vigil. It is the acknowledgement of our limitation, our need to rest, our reliance on a God who does not slumber nor sleep. We rest so that we may awake to serve God in the care of our neighbors.
