The Glenstal Book of Prayer: A Benedictine Prayer Book by Monks of Glenstal Abbey

I use this book nightly for my private prayers (Complline) as well as in group settings. The format gives morning and evening and night prayer for each of the seven days of a week. I found this kind of repetition helpful in developing a pattern of prayer.
