The Faith Journey of our Community

Thank you, I have never thought about the wise Virgins falling asleep and that is a very wise comment. Perfect watchfulness belongs to God and often as we persevere, we have moments of 'falling aslepp', but the most important thing is to pray to be true to the end, that God will provide us the grace to remain faithful even when zeal seems to weaken, prayer is hard. The Apostles fell asleep in the Garden, awakened to see Jesus being betrayed and then fled in fear. Yet the Lord did not forget them and drew them to Himself, prayed for them even as He was being led to die. He knew their weakness but also their desire to be awake. .

Now is. The hour for us to wake from sleep........ The beginning of that passage also brings to mind that even the wise virgins fell asleep while waiting for the Lord but when they awoke they were prepared for his coming because they had filled their lamps with oil. May we fill our hearts and minds with the oil of the word of God and the teachings of the Church so as to not be deceived.Help us to remain faithful to you oh Lord and to be filled with love of neighbor. Help us navigate through these dark times holding fast to our Eucharistic Lord and our Blessed Mother.

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!!
