Giving is truly gaining

In these times, many believe that to give is to lose, rather than to gain. Today’s saint is teaching us to trust in the virtue of generous service to others,…

Asking for prayers for recovery from my wife's hip surgery, and for my recovery broken bone due a falling limb. With both of us partially disabled and acting as care givers for the other, our frustration gets out of control. Jesus give me strength and healing.

Lord I thank you for the beginning of a new week. The past week has been quiet and you've been as faithful as always. As I continue to pray for my many needs , going through Novenas , Father i want to pray for those going through very difficult circumstances. Some are bereaved, others are maimed , others are terminally ill , others are homeless, others are orphaned , others still are struggling day by day just to get something to eat, anything. Lord i pray for them all . Lord have mercy and especially those who are yet to know. May the grace of the Lord be with us all . Amen. Lord bless us

A water pipe burst in my home causing extensive water damage to 3 rooms and the hallway. I have been staying in a hotel. There have been many stressors but some good things. I am 70 years old so moving things to the hotel has been difficult, my life has been totally disrupted and I have had trouble praying, I fell into a very dark place for a few days, there have been some delays, lots of different people have been working and some of them pray. Please pray for my faith, perseverance and patience. And that things will go smoothly with the cleanup and repairs. I pray for you all every day.

Rarely have I read an explanation of purgatory with such thought, insight, and profundity. Thank you for sharing.

I humbly ask for prayers as I undergo surgery this week and continue my journey as a catechumen intending to be baptized this Easter. Lord, I pray for the strength and the courage to be a faithful disciple, even in the face of the personal cost. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, Amen.

Lord, the young adults in our country need so much maternal & paternal-type nurturing to help them find their way that ultimately leads to you and creating a better world where there is love, not hatred, or division. Grant us older ones the grace to reach out, listen, and show them love and how to love. This generation just seems so lost because they do not know you. The have dismissed you, their Creator, source of all love and goodness, a Treasure in Whom they will find the happiness and fulfillment they seek. Help us to reach them, it be Thy will,, in Jesus' name

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!!
