The Orthodox Prayers for Parents App is a tool, or an aid, that Orthodox Christian parents can use to create and help them maintain a prayer rule when they are away from home.
With this App you can create and save your own Prayer Rule for Morning and Evening Prayers so that it includes just the prayers you want to pray including selected prayers from our collection of Prayers for Children, Daily Readings from the Orthodox Study Bible (OSB App required), Psalm of the Day, Intercessory Prayers, Commemorations, Prayers before Communion and the Prayers of Thanksgiving After Communion.
A customizable prayer list for Commemorations includes features that allow you to add photos of your family, God children and loved ones, their names dates and email address so you can email them on their names day and wish them Many Years!
A reminder feature allows you to set an alarm for when you want to be reminded to pray. And every time you open the App an inspirational quote is displayed to help you calm and focus your heart before you begin.
We’ve also included the Akathist to the Theotokos “Nurturer of Children”, a beloved prayer of all parents who are familiar with it.
Perfect for when you don’t have your prayer book but you do have your phone! Did you just spend two hours sitting on a bench and twiddling your thumbs while your child was at soccer practice, music lessons, swim team, or gymnastics lessons? Don’t waste another minute doing nothing when you could be quietly praying for your family... and everyone will think you are checking your email.
