The Sinodos
Section 45
Statute 43. Concerning the time in which it is proper to pray. Believers at the time they awake, having risen from sleep, before they do any work, shall wash their hands and pray to God ; and after that they shall go to their work. And if there should be the word of instruction delivered, they shall choose to go thither where is the word of instruction, that is, the word of God, which strengthens the soul. And they shall hasten to go to the church, where is the Spirit, and they shall bear fruit there.
