Dear community,
In an effort to encourage and promote among our community members more interaction, communication and spiritual support for one another, Divine Office has been working on a new email notification system where members will get an email informing them each time they received:
– “Likes” to their topics and comments
– “Amen” to their Intercessory prayers
– New comments to their topics
– New comments added to topics they commented on
– New comments on topics they liked
We also added an option in the Profile page to opt-out of these notifications at any time. Access My Profile > Edit Profile > Click or tap the check mark next to Get Email Notifications to opt out.
May God bless each one of you, may it make praying together more fruitful each day.

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!!

As a Third Order Lay Carmelite we are very grateful for this as when our sisters and brother cannot make it in person to our meetings, they are able to join us by zoom and recite the prayers along with us. I personally like to say the prayers on my own in the morning and night as it makes me feel that I am in a community and not praying alone. Thank you so very much for all the prayers that are extended in all of our prayers. May God bless all of you for producing the prayers for people who are unable to get with a community and can say them on their own.
Amen. I totally agree with you. Thank you for putting it in words.
The divineOffice, originally was prayed by laity . Then the church , Monastery, religious communities took up the beautiful practice of , praying the psalms .
I encourage everyone to pray for all those who are suffering greatly, inJerusalem. Please pray the chaplet of Saint Michael, the Archangel daily for the return of a safety of Gods people & Jerusalem, and the freeing of all of the hostages and civilians. And for all of our Jewish family, & friends who are afraid here and abroad . God’s Peace be you today.
Praying together and community is vital for God’s people and the world. I am most grateful for the opportunity to continue praying together.God’s people are under attack and this is the most effective tool we have to combat evil . God promises to always hear the cries of his children.God is faithful. Do not lose Hope .I encourage everyone to pray the chaplet of Saint Michael the archangel each day .Saint Michael and the archangels can send Satan and all of his angels into the fires of hell .Saint Michael, the archangel is our defender assigned by God . May God give us a peaceful heart this day, knowing of his great love and mercy for each one of us. Amen.We are his precious sons and daughters, and he is listening to our cries.
Amen. Let us pray together ask for God’s mercy and forgiving of our sins. May the Holy Spirit give us the wisdom to open our eyes and live according to God’s Way, the only source to enjoy peace and happiness in our lives.Thank you Lord for all your blessings
Amen. Praying with you and all
I’m so glad that this resource is available not only to me, but also to everyone else out there seeking prayer, solace and help in these times. It’s also comforting to see others around the world praying when I open the website/app and begin to pray!Thank you for the tremendous work that you do in helping to unite us all through the Divine Office!
So true; it gives the awareness of praying with the Church .
My wife and I pray the Divine Office on this website before going to bed each evening. This is a tremendous resource. Thank you very much.
There have been times that I wanted to send a “like” or make a comment that would be read past the morning or evening the original message was sent. So, this is good news! Thank you for adding this.
Glad I joined. I waited a very long time for your ministry to be approved, etc. I need a community and this is excellent.
I feel the same way. I feel like I am praying in community even though I am home alone. It gives an awareness of the universality of the church and no matter what time I pray I see that many others often hundreds of others are praying with me
That is exactly how I feel. Finally there is a way for Lay people to pray and community. Thank you to all who made this possible
Thank you my love the things I love about this is that it makes you feel like you are praying and community a greater awareness of praying with the whole church and the divine office is the prayer of the church
Pray for me as I return to this Divine Office site
I will pray for you!
May the Word of the Lord fill your heart and shine a light on your path. AmenFor you:From: The Aquinas Prayer Book… Grant unto me, my God, that I may direct my heart to You and that in my failures I may ever feel remorse for my sins and never lose the resolve to change. Amen
Prayers
I will pray for you.
Before this site and ap, prayer felt so solitary. It is nice to know that as I pray now I am praying with others within the church of our faith. God bless you all!
Now we’re a community! thank you, Divine Office.
…Amen to that
This is a great idea….Those who do not agree are afforded the opportunity to opt out. A win-win!
Good idea, to promote communication in praying together for each other needs.
Your ministry is a true blessing from God! Thank you for everything you have done and will continue to do!!!
I truly love this site. It easily keeps me God and faith centered throughout my busy and hectic schedule, and at whatever life decides to throw at me along the way. God bless all of you and Divine Office.
I use the Divine Office App, not the website. Is there a way to post prayers and comments from the app?
Terribly disappointed at the way this is being conducted.
Please explain why you are disappointed. If you will, be more specific.
I am so sorry to hear that. It has helped me so much in being able to pray the DivineOffice. I have and the breviary for a while but I am more motivated to pray when I pray in community
Today is the memorial of Mary, Mother of the Church, not Monday of the of the 8th Week in Ordinary Time. The new Prayer is in the Guide for the Liturgy of the Hours for 2023.
It is a beautiful Tuesday morning and praying the Divine Office is one way to show my gratitude to what God has given us, a beautiful day.
Thank you and bless all of you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you.
