spr418

do we really have to pray each prayer at the exact same timing its suppose to be said?

GBU
sandra

why

i dont think so...like in the morning of the mass, if u r early enough, we would read the agbia...what we read is the ..3rd n 6th hour..in your case the terce and sext...this ususally takes place at around 8-8:30 in the morning. even though these prayers shuld take place at 9 and 12...so i coclude by saying..if we do it in the mass...it should be A OK


however i need backup!!

spr418

okay! ;)
thnx
