Lord, open my lips.
— And my mouth will proclaim your praise.
Ant. Cry out with joy to the Lord all the Earth, serve the Lord with gladness.
Psalm 95
Come, let us sing to the Lord
and shout with joy to the Rock who saves us.
Let us approach him with praise and thanksgiving
and sing joyful songs to the Lord.
Ant. Cry out with joy to the Lord all the Earth, serve the Lord with gladness.
The Lord is God, the mighty God,
the great king over all the gods.
He holds in his hands the depths of the earth
and the highest mountains as well
He made the sea; it belongs to him,
the dry land, too, for it was formed by his hands.
Ant. Cry out with joy to the Lord all the Earth, serve the Lord with gladness.
Come, then, let us bow down and worship,
bending the knee before the Lord, our maker,
For he is our God and we are his people,
the flock he shepherds.
Ant. Cry out with joy to the Lord all the Earth, serve the Lord with gladness.
Today, listen to the voice of the Lord:
Do not grow stubborn, as your fathers did in the wilderness,
when at Meriba and Massah they challenged me and provoked me,
Although they had seen all of my works.
Ant. Cry out with joy to the Lord all the Earth, serve the Lord with gladness.
Forty years I endured that generation.
I said, “They are a people whose hearts go astray
and they do not know my ways.”
So I swore in my anger,
“They shall not enter into my rest.”
Ant. Cry out with joy to the Lord all the Earth, serve the Lord with gladness.
Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit:
— as it was in the beginning, is now, and will be for ever. Amen.
Ant. Cry out with joy to the Lord all the Earth, serve the Lord with gladness.

“The Lord is my shepherd; I have all that I need. He lets me rest in green meadows; he leads me beside peaceful streams. He renews my strength. He guides me along right paths, bringing honor to his name. Even when I walk through the darkest valley, I will not be afraid, for you are close beside me.

Dear Holy Trinity, I praise you. Thank you for the life of my Uncle Ricky, who's soul left this earth yesterday, who carried your cross for his lifetime, who was special in my heart. Please have mercy on any sin he acquired in his days, and take him unto your heart. Comfort to his family.

I am in the process of becoming a Catholic and there is someone in my life that I believe wouldn't be too thrilled to hear that and I assume wouldn't want me going to confession. I have to fight for Heaven. I have to suffer and risk burning bridges if I want to get right with God. Please pray for me

Heavenly Father, as we begin this Thanksgiving Week I am reminded there are souls who suffer every sort of anguish - betrayal, abandonment, fractured family relationships. I plead with you to let descend on those poor souls your healing presence. Jesus, I trust in you.

Lord, with the intersession of Your Divine Son, angels, and saints, I ask help for my sister in body, mind, and spirit. Mellow her self-determination so she can accept help when offered to her. Also, is there any way you can help with the church situation, like having her take a seat in front?

Lord, through the intercession of Your Divine Son, angels, and saints, send aid in body, mind, and spirit to the two severely handicapped young women and their caregivers that I see each Sunday at Mass. How can members of our Parish help them and their families? Amen.

Pray anywhere
I have prayed the Divine Office for many years. [...] When I discovered this app, all of my concerns of ribbon placement were gone. Having the Divine Office on my phone is absolutely the best thing ever! The sense of community is so wonderful as I see how many others are praying at the same time as myself. [...] Now I don’t need to turn a lamp on as I use to when I used the Office printed volumes. It is such a blessing to have the Divine Office in my pocket. Many times I’ve been sitting in a doctor’s waiting room at the time of Mid Morning prayer. It is so calming of any worries to pull out my phone, open the app, and be able to connect with Our Lord at those times I need Him most. I don’t use the audio version much but the few times I’ve traveled, it is so comforting to not have to skip the Office in order to keep my hands on the steering wheel and my eyes in the road. I recommend this app to friends all the time, especially to those who’d like to pray the Office but feel intimidated by the size of the printed version and getting the ribbons placed properly. Thank you for developing this app. It is my constant companion.

Super helpful
I have only been introduced to the divine office prayers two times before I downloaded this app. It is laid out in a way that is very easy to understand, and there is an audio option that will say all of the prayers. There is an option to set reminders throughout the day. I got this because, I didn’t really know how to say the divine office, and I didn’t know what prayer books I needed to purchase to begin. During the shutting down of churches for covid :( this has been a wonderful resource. One cool feature is that you can tap on the “in prayer” link and see little specks of light around the globe lighting up in the area that someone else is praying. It’s so cool to see everyone praying with you and is a powerful reminder that we are all connected and unified in Christ’s mystical body.

Praying with the whole Church
I love this app! Since it is now free and no longer for sale, I made sure to donate the price of buying it, and then some. I have loved the Liturgy of the Hours for 25 years. But I always felt alone when I prayed it. With this app, I am connected to others! I use it in conjunction with my printed Christian Prayer volume. On other days, I cannot get to my book but with the app, I always have the prayers available. I have the printed calendar with my book, but I actually rely on this more for placing my ribbons. The audio is wonderful!! I often read out loud with it. I love that I can change the speed of the audio! I have found that 1.3 is good for me. Thank you, thank you, thank you for this app. Thank you for still supporting it. Thank you for updating the “one God,” to just “God” change in the prayers. My book still throws me off but your app is right! Highly recommend this. Many friends have it. THANK YOU!!
