All is grace!
God’s grace has taught us “that what we have to do is to give up everything that does not lead to God”. This is a perfect, one-sentence summary of the…

St Paul Miki and all you faithful martyrs including Justus Takayama Ukon, pray for the conversion of Japan. Please pray for my husband's family and my children who are Japanese in heritage. Please pray for the conversion of my daughter in Yokosuka and her husband and children. Blessed Mother Mary, I know how much you love Japan, please pray alongside these faithful saints for Japan's conversion and the conversion of the world. I ask these petitions through the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Amen

Matthew 6: 6 But when you pray, go to your inner room, close the door, and pray to your Father in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will repay you.
It seems I desired to harmonize these two contraries—so inimical to one another—such as are the spiritual life and sensory joys, pleasures, and pastimes. In prayer I was having a…

Please pray for the repose of the souls of Paul Detky, Albert Trentalance and Deacon George Good
These three had such a profound impact on my life and so many others. God bless their souls.

St. Paul Miki, we implore your intercession. In our world today, we encounter a different form of persecution that affects many aspects of our lives. We find ourselves vulnerable to these trials, but we steadfastly place our trust in God. With your powerful prayers and those of the Holy Saints and Holy Angels, we can overcome the challenges and distractions that seek to pull us away from our true purpose as children of God. Thank you, St. Paul Miki, for your unwavering support in our prayers. 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!!
