	: Having reached the end of our long journey through the Psalms and Canticles of the Liturgy of Lauds, let us pause to consider the prayer that marks the Office of Lauds every morning. It is the Benedictus, the Canticle intoned by Zechariah, the father of John the Baptist, when the birth of that son changed his life, wiping away the doubt that caused him to go mute, a serious punishment for his lack of faith and praise.		: Having reached the end of our long journey through the Psalms and Canticles of the Liturgy of Lauds, let us pause to consider the prayer that marks the Office of Lauds every morning.

			The Liturgy is the "source and summit" of the Środowisko experience.

	The Liturgy of the Hours is the public and official prayer of the Church which priests and religious are vowed to pray, while all are warmly welcomed to participate. Though an important part of the Church's life, it is not often that laity, especially youth, receive a proper introduction and the instruction necessary to appreciate the prayer. During Karol Wojtyla's summer excursions he would teach his students how to pray the liturgy of the Hours and, together with the Mass, it formed the structure of their daily rhythm. During the Srodowisko experience before each liturgy a short introduction (10 min) is often made regarding one aspect of the prayer.

	The rationale behind proposing the liturgy as a key aspect of our week-long experience is to allow each young person to gain familiarity with the prayer, basic instruction for participating in and even leading it, as well as the basics of chant. A disclaimer is made at the beginning, the gist of which is: "in order to learn this prayer we will immerse ourselves in the rhythm of the hours this week. You may never pray this prayer again in your life yet you will know and appreciate those who are praying it on your behalf. You will feel aware and comfortable if you visit a Church or community and they invite you to pray."

	We have 30 copies of the [http://www.amazon.com/Shorter-Christian-Prayer-Four-Week-Containing/dp/0899424082 "Shorter Christian Prayer"], purchased the first year, chiefly because they were the ~~most inexpensive version of the~~ psalter we could find in English. The layout is difficult for beginners, for example, antiphons are not repeated, psalm prayers are added, the hymns are hard to navigate and the selection is meager. In addition the layout of the verses makes them impossible to chant in choirs.

	From the beginning we wanted to chant and the beginnings brought more laughter than success. In 2009 with the discovery of the [http://www.usml.edu/the-liturgical-institute/special-projects/the-mundelein-psalter "Mundelein Psalter"], and the wonderful resources they have available online to assist in chanting, we began chanting with photocopies of the Gospel canticles. As purchasing 30 Mundelien Psalters was outside of the budget, the following year we took pencils and began pointing the text of the Shorter Christian Prayer books. The group responsible for leading liturgy would mark the psalms with lines, daggers, and asterisks which indicate the changes in the reciting tone. While a pain to do in time for the next liturgy, this has proved to be a great method for understanding how chant works and dialoging about the texts as a means of preparation for leading them.
