How do I read the Agpeya?

CopticChurchForever

Hello everyone -

I am new to these forums but have been reading threads for some time. I joined specifically so I could ask how to read the Agpeya. I understand that there is a series of readings you need to do at certain hours of the day (as shown on agpeya.com), but I remember when I read the Agpeya with other kids from my church along with my Priest we didn't read all of those psalms, just a select few. How do you select which psalms to read? Could someone please explain the process of reading the Agpeya? Any help is greatly appreciated, thanks a lot!

Here are the hours when we should pray:
6-9am - first hour
9-12pm - third hour
12-3pm - sixth hour
3-6pm - ninth hour
6-9pm - eleventh hour
9-12pm - twelfth hour

When you were reading only some of the Psalms with others, it was probably just to save time.  The Agpia is suppose to keep us meditating on God throughout the day.  Try to memorize some Psalms and remember them throughout the day. Just pick some Psalms that u understand better.

God bless, please pray for me and my weakness

I got told off so bad ( ;D ) when I told my FoC that I read the Agpia. He corrected me and said that we needed to [glow=red,2,300]pray [/glow] the Agpia.

Enjoy :)
