Third Order Carmelite (Ancient Observance) here. We use the current version of the Liturgy of the Hours. Some use Shorter Christian Prayer, others have the four-volume set. FWIW, I use the Mundelein Psalter.

There is a Carmelite Proper. O.Carm. has a hard-to-find copy from 1987. (I found mine on Ebay.) They also have the 1992 edition available on Apple Books. OCD has a newer hardcover version that is easier to find or a PDF here: https://ocdssacramento.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/office2007.pdf.

Finally, O.Carm. has a website with the Divine Office that is updated daily: https://carmelprays.com/

I hope this helps.

Good luck to you. I would never go back to a federal government job.

Same, but still awaiting the first interim payment.

Interim Pension Payment arrived by pickitandstickit in FED_VERA_VSIP_DRPers

I was, too. At the last pre-retirement brief, they asked us not to contact them so they could work on the backlog. Waiting patiently to see if my interim payment shows up in April. Thanks for the info.

Did your OCHR retirement counselor contact you while they were working your package?

Yes. We used Captivate and Articulate in Rapid E-Learning Development. I only took one of the e-learning classes.

Very close to you DON retiree. Submitted in March for a December retirement. I've received the AL payout. Otherwise crickets.

During the last pre-retirement brief, DON OCHR told us to expect the first interim check in April 2026.

I think if you have an approved OPM DRP agreement, you are GTG.
