Daily Office for Baptist Ministry

Introduction to our Daily Office for Baptist Ministry

The SHBC Daily Office is an edited version of the Order for Baptist Ministry, which is available at https://www.orderforbaptistministry.co.uk/daily-office/

There are three prayer patterns for each day: Morning, Midday, and Day’s Ending. The phases of each Office are:

  • becoming present to God
  • celebrating the presence of God
  • acknowledging our humanity
  • listening for the Word
  • reflecting on our roots
  • bringing our concerns
  • and going to love and serve.

The Daily Ending Prayer is available here

The phases are meant to enable awareness of and responsiveness to God – whether though the actual Office liturgy, moments of silence, or spontaneous speaking to God in praise, thanks or intercession. The Daily Office differs according to the day of the week, so there are seven different offices. The correspondence is as follows:
