I am unaware of a single Episcopalian, Catholic, or Lutheran parish that does any of the daily office in our small city of 100,000.

Our new rector has (re-)introduced the practice; Matins (Morning Prayer) at 8:30 AM, Evensong (Evening Prayer) at 5:30 PM. The attendance is usually small, but we're a very widespread parish and Seattle-area rush-hour traffic is horribly bad.

You know, that's very nice. I remember attending these devotions during Great Lent at the Episcopal Church in the town I went to college in 100 years back or so, with the girl I was dating at the time. They were beautiful, the prayers, the music, all of it.
