St. Ignatius prayers and devotions - The Daily Examen, the thirty-day Spiritual Exercises, and a year of Catholic prayers and saint-quotes — all on one device.
Suscipe is a Catholic devotional companion rooted in the Ignatian tradition. The prayer that gives the app its name — Suscipe, Domine, universam meam libertatem — sits at its heart.
THE DAILY EXAMEN
Pray Saint Ignatius's five-step Examen of Consciousness in the morning to direct the day, and again in the evening to read it. Each step opens with a prompt and an invitation — Latin alongside English on every step. Close the morning Examen with the Suscipe; close the evening with the Pater Noster or, if you prefer, the Anima Christi.
THE THIRTY-DAY SPIRITUAL EXERCISES
The full Ignatian retreat in its traditional structure, beginning with the Principle and Foundation and walking through the Four Weeks: Sin and Mercy, the Public Life of Christ, the Passion, and the Resurrection. Each day opens with a hub — foundation quote, today's structure, opening CTA — and a six-step flow: preparatory prayer, composition of place, petition for grace, meditation points, colloquy, and the Pater Noster.
THE PRAYER LIBRARY
Thirteen central Catholic prayers in their canonical Latin and traditional English: Suscipe, Anima Christi, Prayer for Generosity, Pater Noster, Ave Maria, Gloria Patri, Memorare, Veni Creator Spiritus, Salve Regina, Angelus, Te Deum, Magnificat, and the Act of Contrition. Each carries an authorship note, a source citation, and where helpful a note on the language tradition.
DAILY PRAYER + DAILY QUOTE
A different Catholic prayer for every day of the year, paired with a Scripture verse or saint-quote arranged to the liturgical calendar.
ABOUT ST. IGNATIUS
A reverent biography in seven sections — the soldier of Loyola, his conversion, Montserrat and Manresa, Paris, the first companions, the founding of the Society of Jesus, his death and canonization — with a Spiritual Legacy section, the Sacred Places of his life (Loyola, Montserrat, Manresa, Paris, La Storta, Rome), and his sayings.
LITURGICAL LIGHT
Suscipe's chrome breathes through the day. A warm Marian Dawn palette in the morning — golden-red, deep brick, peach horizon, rising-sun gold — crossfading at noon and 4:30 AM into the deep Pilgrim Sunset of the evening: terracotta, burnt clay, dark earth, gold ember.
THE UNLOCK
Every prayer, every quote, every page of the Spiritual Exercises is free, and that is not changing. The personal practice tools — the Tracker (anchor and supplemental practice tracking, with streaks, perfect days, monthly grid, and year heatmap), the Journal (with reflective prompts and PDF export), and the Colloquy Timer (3, 5, or 10 minutes of paced contemplation with a soft chime) — are available through the unlock at $0.99 a month or $9.99 a year, both with a seven-day free trial.
PRIVACY
Your prayer history, journal entries, retreat day completions, and Examen reflections live on your device. If iCloud is enabled, they sync through Apple's end-to-end encrypted iCloud backup. No analytics, no third-party trackers, no servers we run.
A NOTE ON THE TEXTS
The Catholic prayers in Suscipe come down to us in Latin from the Roman Missal, the Vulgate, and the Raccolta. The English is Edward Caswall's nineteenth-century translation paired with the traditional forms. Scripture is from the Douay-Rheims. St. Ignatius wrote his Spiritual Exercises in Spanish — El Rey Eterno, Principio y Fundamento are his own words, not Latin translations. The app preserves these distinctions because language is part of what the prayer is.
THE STUDIO
Suscipe is part of the Sanctified Souls collective — a small Catholic studio making devotional tools for the faithful. Sister apps: Sanctified Souls, St. Bridget Prayers, The Little Way, and Via Virtutum.
