The Encounter Prayer Book
The Common Prayer Discipline of St. Philip the Evangelist
Prayer isn’t meant to be complicated—but in our busy, distracted lives it often feels that way. The Encounter prayer book was created to bring simplicity, beauty, and rhythm back to your spiritual life. Rooted in the rich tradition of the Orthodox Church, this daily prayer companion helps you step into the presence of God morning, noon, and night—whether you have three minutes or thirty.
Why The Encounter Prayerbook?
Many of us long for a deeper connection with God—but we don’t know where to begin. We try to establish a prayer rule, but life keeps getting in the way. Over time, our good intentions fade, and prayer becomes something we mean to do… but rarely follow through on.
The Encounter: The Common Discipline of the Fellowship of St. Philip the Evangelist makes prayer accessible—without losing the depth and beauty of Orthodox tradition. With carefully selected morning, noonday, and evening prayers in modern English and traditional form, you can open the book and start praying wherever you are. Whether you're just beginning your journey or deepening a lifelong habit, The Encounter helps you pray consistently, reverently, and joyfully.
This is your companion to anchor your day in Christ and stay rooted in what matters most.
