The Glenstal Book of Prayer: A Benedictine Prayer Book (Columba Classics)

The Glenstal Book of Prayer is a rich resource for the dark, mysterious, but exciting journey which is prayer. It draws on the wisdom of the Bible, enshrined in Benedictine liturgy, on the experience of modern monks, and on the wisdom of hte Christian church. Coming as it does from an Irish monastery it reflects in a special way the Celtic tradition with its earthly, popular and devotional prayers.
