You lost your son in 2017, I lost the older of my two sons, Joseph, in 2019. God be praised for the sliver of the Holy Cross which we are carrying! Eternal rest grant unto them O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May they rest in peace. May almighty God – the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, bless us with peace and strength.O GOD! for Thy greater glory, to imitate as closely as possible the generous Heart of Jesus, our Redeemer, and also to testify our devotion to the Blessed Virgin, our Mother, who is also the Mother of the Souls in Purgatory, We place in her hands all our satisfactory works, as well as the fruit of all those which may be offered for our intentions after our death, that she may apply them to the Souls in Purgatory according to her wisdom and good pleasure. Amen.
I’m sorry for your loss. I said one St. Gertrude prayer for Kevin and one Hail Mary for his soul. May the peace of the Lord be with Kevin, you, and your family. God bless.
May the divine light of our adorable Jesus shine in our hearts always.
God is all encompassing, He is like the air we breath, everything, our every breath depends on Him. And now He, Jesus comes not only as God but as one of…

The eyes of the world are once again turned to Rome, where the 2025 Conclave has begun. As the doors of the Sistine Chapel closed and the words “Extra omnes” (“Everyone out!”) echoed through the sacred space, the Cardinal electors entered into one of the most solemn and prayerful tasks of their vocation: to discern, under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, who will be the next successor to St. Peter.

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!!

Deacon Jim and Edenj,I also lost a son on October 15 1989. He had a very active summer and had accomplished many things he wanted to do. He bicycled the C & O Canal and completed training to become a lifeguard. He was almost sixteen. He died at John’s Hopkins Medical Center from an unknown virus. He was very active in Boy Scouts and was one of the boy troop leaders, the senior patrol leader. He had received the Boy Scout Catholic Religious Award. I still miss him. Please pray for our children that have died and for all the parents who have lost children. Peace,Jim
