Why do I need a new booklet every month?

The Liturgy of the Hours follows the Church's liturgical calendar, which changes from day to day, and month to month. No two months are exactly the same. That's why you need a special booklet for each month. With this booklet, you don't have to worry about all the complicated calendar details, much less the ribbons and flipping with traditional breviaries. All the work is done for you. You just open the booklet and pray, confident that you have the right prayers for each day.
