Every HourEvery hour,
pause.
Read. Pray. Reflect. Grow closer to Christ. A quiet companion that calls you to prayer at the hours you choose.
Sixty seconds
with God.
One who is slow to anger is better than the mighty; one who rules his spirit, than he who takes a city.
Proverbs 16:32At the hours you choose, a gentle reminder brings a passage of Scripture, a prayer from the Church's tradition, and, if you like, one honest question for your conscience. Hold Amen for a moment, and the hour is prayed.
Prayer for what
you're fighting.
Choose the areas you want to grow in. Each day one becomes your focus, and the Scripture, prayers, and questions you see are drawn from it.
The color
of the day.
Every Hour wears the color the priest wears at Mass. Its accent changes with the liturgical year, so the app looks different on the third Sunday of Advent than in the middle of July, the way your parish does. This page is wearing today's color.
End the day
at peace.
A short examination after St. Ignatius of Loyola. Light the candle, then look back on the day with God, one tap per question.
- Give thanks for one gift of the day.
- Ask for light, and review the day honestly.
- Ask for mercy with an Act of Contrition.
- Bring the people you carry to God.
- Resolve, with His grace, to begin again.
Prayed for centuries.
