I do believe the entire Morning and Evening Prayer book is finished, at least the typing and placement. There are several typographical errors and perhaps even some missing text. Please let me know what you see by contacting bbuckley@merion-mercy.com


In 1998, the Institute of the Sisters of Mercy of the Americas produced Morning and Evening Prayer of the Sisters of Mercy, basing text on the English translation of the psalms and canticles taken from the Liturgical Psalter: Text for Study and Comment, 1994, International Committee on English in the Liturgy, Inc.

At a leadership development program of Sisters of Mercy in Panama City, Panama, in November 2011, the sisters expressed a desire for an electronic version of their prayer book. Recognizing that many hands make light work, they decided to work collaboratively over several months to accomplish the task of digitizing their daily prayer book. The web site is not meant to replace the Morning and Evening Prayer book; rather, it is a supplement for use during travel or at times when a sister or associate cannot access her own book.

This is a private site open for use by Sisters of Mercy, Associates of Mercy and anyone who wishes to say morning and evening prayer.
