This book actually developed from a local religious community on the northeast coast of England, near the Scottish border and it was this community that tried to devise a way that people could pray at regular intervals without upsetting their normal everyday lives. There is lots of devotional reading, and the devotions range a lot in theology.I cannot use this book as a substitute for the actual Daily Offices, however. It does provide great material that I can use for my morning and evening prayers and there is a cycle of seven different Compline prayers, one for each day of the week. There is no Apostles Creed (aka the baptismal vow) or the Lord's Prayer (aka the Our Father) so I do not use this to replace the Daily Offices, but I do use the meditations and selected readings from time to time while doing the Office.A problem with this book has occurred just now. The pages are falling out. Strange, because for a prayer book (where a reader has to constantly flip back and forth pages at a time) I would think that the binding would last much longer than this. Because of the constant flipping, I had to use ribbons to keep my place. I've used these homemade ribbons before and nothing like this has ever happened to my Bibles or Prayer Books before, especially in under a year of use.... In this case, just a few months. Pity....It has excellent material. If it was just that I would have given it 5 stars, but the title was a little misleading (it is mainly Celtic, but not exactly, so I felt a little "ripped off"), that would have given it 4 stars. Now with the binding issue, it is down to a 3 star, though I was tempted to give it 2, but there is great material in here.... I just have to be more careful not to loose anymore pages.UPDATE:After an exchange of this book, I now have a hard copy that has much stronger binding. The pages are still glued together instead of being stitched on, but my guess is they probably used more glue? At any rate, because I am no longer using pages after getting this exchanged, I am now promoting the book to 4 STARS instead of the 3 that I originally assigned it. It still has great material, but it isn't exactly a "Celtic Prayer Book" per-se and it really could use some ribbons. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Depth, rhythm, vibrancy and full life -- and more in this book. Highly recommended for the spiritual and poetic folks. *by R***K on Reviewed in the United States on March 17, 2014* I've had this book for about five years and it's still a treasure that keeps yielding its jewels whenever I go to it. Poems, psalms, scriptures, meditations, with all that variety and so much spiritual depth, I never tire of it. One reason is the richness of sources all the material comes from -- yes, the Bible and spiritual leaders. But also great writers, preachers and mystics from the ages, all the way from Homer to Peter Marshall. Much practical thoughts from ones like Bill Hybels and Thomas Merton, Protestant, Catholic, Orthodox, and those for whom labels cannot be attached.All this has been gathered for us by the Northumbria Community for our devotions and prayers, morning, noon and evening. They are arrnaged in cycles for private and community use each day. A full two years of devotions convey the rhythms of the inner and outer life. Then there are precious graces for for the celebrations of birth, rebirth, marriage, growing older, and bereavement.These devotions span centuries and give me the sense of the circle of physical and spiritual life. Sometimes I might forget about this book for a short while, but when I go back to it, it is a whole new life and a bright treasure chest all over again!. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Nice Resource *by J***H on Reviewed in the United States on June 30, 2006* I first stumbled across this book in the local Barnes & Noble, where I sat and perused it, becoming more and more drawn to the liturgies and readings. When I arrived home, I immediately logged on to Amazon.com and put it on my Wish List. One of my friends gave it to me the following Christmas.The section of the book I use most often is the Daily Office, which can also be found online at the Northumbria Community's web site. The services are short and and designed to be said in community. I introduced my Education for Ministry (EFM) group to the Complines, and they have become a regular part of our worship together.I also use the "Follow the Example" section of the book when planning liturgies for small groups and retreats. Here you will find a list of Saints and Holy Days with brief biographies and references to the other sections of the book for suggested scripture readings. The Saints range from the ancient and traditional, primarily Celtic, to 20th century figures such as Diterich Bonhoffer, Oscar Romero and Thomas Merton. Nine longer liturgies and reflections based on the lives of specific Saints like Brigid, Brendan and Hild.The book also contains a series of 31 Daily meditations, a Holy Communion service, a Family Shabbat, Rites of Passage, brief seasonal liturgies, and two series of Daily readings for the year.A definite must for those interested in Celtic Christianity and Spirituality. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/1692822-celtic-daily-prayer-prayers-and-readings-from-the-northumbria-community](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/1692822-celtic-daily-prayer-prayers-and-readings-from-the-northumbria-community) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-08-16*
