Ecclesia orans: Periodica de Scientiis Liturgicis is a peer-reviewed academic journal on all aspects of Christian liturgy published by the Pontifical Institute of Sacred Liturgy of Sant'Anselmo all'Aventino.[1][2][3][4]

The cover of Ecclesia orans

The journal was established in 1984 by Adrien Nocent and Anscar Chupungco[5] and appeared triannually.[1][3][4] Some sources identify an earlier publication of the same name published at the Maria Laach Abbey in 1918.[6] It was the second in a two-part series, which provided a rereading of the sources of the liturgical tradition from historical, theological, and pastoral perspectives.[7][6]

Since 2013, Ecclesia orans has been published biannually. The editor-in-chief is Markus Tymister (Pontifical Atheneum of St. Anselm). Articles are published in English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish.
