Happy Birthday Divine Office!

Please Note

This is the Liturgy of the Hours for August 06. Your local date is .

 

On the Feast day of the Transfiguration of the Lord, DivineOffice.org celebrates 14 years of existence!

 

The seed for this work was planted even earlier, in 2006, when our first Catholic website and podcast series went live. We started recording the Liturgy of the Hours with a few volunteers, their work and devotion survived the passage of time and the many obstacles we had to overcome.

Skipping forward many years, today, Divine Office just announced the availability of its award-winning, USCCB approved Liturgy of the Hours Audio on Spotify and Alexa and is in the final stages of a total makeover of its website. We’ll add functionality and a way for our prayer community members to interact more.

We take the opportunity to express a deeply felt gratitude and appreciation for all our donors, they make this ancient prayer of the Church available for those that can not afford to donate.

Thank you! Together, let us praise God for the many blessings that continue to nourish our faith and enhance our community!

    Dear Divine Office team, I am an hermit from France. When a pastor, if I was sick, I used Divine Office, it’s the same today: sick I was unable to pray audibly for several weeks, so I just listened to Divine Office. Just sorry such a service doesn’t exist in French language. May God bless your holy team. Fr. Geoffroy de Lestrange

    We’re talking “mustard seed” here. Small and humble beginnings, now affecting MANY

    Happy Birthday Divine Office. I am so grateful to you all for this opportunity to pray with others. I’ve been here since Dane first began recording the hours. One thing I used to enjoy was being able to see the google map showing where people were praying in live time. I hope you can bring that back. God bless you.

  8. Jamie Nibler says:

    This is very convenient when I don’t have access to a breviary

  11. Lynda Von Kanel says:

    When I had do get up and go to work insanely early to teach in public school I was able to say office with the phone when I had some free time. No one knew I was praying, which is not allowed by staff in school, because I was looking at my phone like everybody else. I greatly appreciated being able to do that. Thank you for making it possible.

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!!
