Description

The Divine Office App is an opportunity for you to participate in the recitation of the Liturgy of the Hours, an ancient and meditative collection of psalms, hymns and scripture that represent the public prayer of the Christian community.
If you are unable to pray in community, but love the contentment of praying with others, a praised feature of the Divine Office App lets you view locations where other Christians around the world are simultaneously praying with you.

This version is the official prayer book of the Catholic Church, however, it is suitable for all Christian faith traditions. It contains the official text and audio of daily prayers from the Liturgy of the Hours of the Roman Catholic Church (Breviary) and has been approved for use in the United States by USCCB.

The Divine Office App is designed to make praying more convenient, enjoyable, and simple enough for anyone to use. It automatically downloads the appropriate prayers for each office, every day of the year, including Solemnities, Feasts, and Memorials.

When St. Paul advises us in 1 Thessalonians 5:17 to “pray without ceasing,” he intends more than simply bowing our heads and speaking to God on a regular basis. He means for us to adopt an ongoing attitude of prayer that is a way of life and a constant intercession for the salvation of all mankind.

As the mystical body of Christ prays in unison, it fulfills what Paul advises as Christian conduct, that believers at once pray for the good of themselves, their neighbors, and the world. In this way, prayers become liturgy, a way to fulfill our divine calling and a practical approach for addressing the suffering of the world.

A deeper Faith

Not until I discovered the SSPX and the Holy Father’s who presented the Deposit of Faith and the sublime TLM was my interest stirred to delve into our beautiful rich Catholic traditions in practicing our faith. Including (part) of the Divine Office in my daily life has brought an awareness of the presence of Christ to me. Just beginning and I hope the habit will grow and broaden. This app makes it so easy to stop for a short time through out the day ( without any delay in finding the prayers) and join the long line of Faithful who have worshipped Our Lord over the centuries in the same way. Big thanks to all who made this app available.

What a joyful way of increasing ones Faith. The closeness of prayer between Jesus and us is so evident. What seemingly was time consuming is now a must do every day with an ease that brings Him to our thoughts constantly , even when we wake at night. He is always with us.
The “in prayer” extra at times saddens me. How I wish so many more Australians would fill our lowly numbers into a beacon lights around the coast of our nation where most of our major cities stand.

Thumbs up to the Divine Office app.

Trying to find my way around the hard copy of the Divine Office made me feel like a Dodo! It was a great source of frustration to me! A friend recommended this app. Hallelujah!! I am now able to enjoy my time praying the Liturgy of the Hours in a relaxed atmosphere. Thank you to the developers of this app - I am sending prayers of thanks your way!!
