Features
Living Liturgy by LabOra is a
step into the future, providing both a liturgical library and preparation
help in electronic form.
The software is produced by Duplo Data in Norway and is used by Anglican,
Catholic, Lutheran and other churches in Europe, North America and in
Australasia. Anglicans in Australia use this software under the name
e-pray, and it is also available for the Uniting Church in Australia and
the Catholic Church in Australia and New Zealand.
Living Liturgy by LabOra is a CD library
All the material comes on a CD and
installs itself on your computer. It is instantly available with no
internet dialup or download time. It is easy to load up your existing
resources - like the hymn words you have on your computer already, or the
liturgy resources you access on the internet. Living Liturgy also keeps
track of the things you write yourself: sermons, intercessions, and other
resources.
Look what's in it !

all liturgies, the Catechism, the Psalms and other resources.

RCL.
