7. Liturgy of the Hours The Liturgy of the Hours is prayed by every bishop, priest, deacon, and religious throughout the world. Many lay people also pray the Liturgy of the Hours, which is also known as the Divine Office.  It is the prayer of the Church.  It is made up of psalms, instructions, Scripture, hymns, and writings of the saints.  It is prayed throughout the day and reflects the liturgical year.
