About the app

Summary · not an editor review

Lectio 365 is a free daily prayer app from the 24-7 Prayer movement that guides users through three prayer sessions each day: morning, midday, and night. Morning devotionals follow the P.R.A.Y. rhythm (Pause, Rejoice, Ask, Yield) using the ancient Lectio Divina approach to Scripture. Midday prayer centers on the Lord's Prayer, and evening reflections draw from the Ignatian Examen. Devotionals are available in both written and audio formats and can be downloaded a week in advance for offline use.
