Little Way: Catholic Prayer

Pray for Others, Every Day

Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

Little Way is a Catholic app for loving others through prayer and small sacrifices, in the little way of St. Thérèse of Lisieux: small things done with great love. PRAY FOR STRANGERS, AND THEY PRAY FOR YOU The Chapel holds real intentions from people around the world: a mother before surgery, a marriage in trouble, a baby on the way. Pray a Hail Mary for one, and it blooms as a flower in their bouquet. Ask for prayer for someone you love, and the whole Chapel prays. When someone you prayed for prays for you in return, it comes home to your own altar as a gift. OFFER SOMETHING FOR SOMEONE Give up sweets for a few hours, or complaining for the afternoon, and offer it for a soul in the Chapel or for someone you love. Each little fast is kept on your honour, for a person by name, and laid in their bouquet. LOVE AT HOME, ON PURPOSE Choose small kindnesses for the people you live with and offer them to Our Lord for them: a kiss when you come home, your full attention at dinner, a decade of the Rosary prayed together, a blessing at bedtime for your children, a call to your mother. Keep one today, or every week. FOR THE DEAD Have a Mass offered, visit a grave, keep an anniversary, and pray for the holy souls at the shrine of Our Lady of Sorrows. YOUR DAY, PRAYED FOR OTHERS Set the times you keep with Our Lord, each carried for the people you love: the Morning Offering when you wake, the Angelus at noon, a Rosary in the evening, the Examen before sleep. Little Way rings each time and opens the prayer. If you like, the apps you choose can pause during these times (uses Screen Time; optional, with Premium). SACRED ART, MADE BY HAND Each shrine in the Chapel is kept by sacred art made by human hands: old masters such as Murillo, Bloch and Zurbarán, and living Catholic artists who share their work with the Chapel. THE INNER ROOM A school of mental prayer in seven doors, the way the saints taught it, and Gospel scenes to pray from inside the story, carrying the people you love. End the day with Compline, the Church's night prayer. EVERY DAY • One virtue to grow in each week, carried to the nightly Examen • Sacred chant playing softly while you pray • The Rosary and the Divine Mercy Chaplet • Story of a Soul in daily readings • The Gospel of the day, from the Douay-Rheims • Preparation for confession that stays on your device • In English, Spanish, French, Italian and Portuguese Free to pray, with no ads and no streaks. Premium adds the pause for your chosen apps and every room of the Inner Room.
