Reminder:
The St. Andrew Christmas Novena goes from November 30 through December 25. The following is said 15 times per day during that period to obtain a special favor.
Hail and blessed be the hour and moment in which the Son of God was born of the most pure Virgin Mary, at midnight, in Bethlehem, in piercing cold. In that hour vouchsafe, I beseech Thee, O my God, to hear my prayer and grant my desires through the merits of Our Savior Jesus Christ, and of His blessed Mother. Amen.
Pray Unceasingly
"Pray without ceasing. In all things give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you all." - St. Paul (1 Thess. 5)
"But before all things have a constant mutual charity among yourselves: for charity covereth a multitude of sins." - St. Peter (1 Peter 4)
Holy Mother Church recommends corporal and spiritual acts of mercy. Prayer is a spiritual act of mercy. We will be held accountable for every minute of our lives - including our idle moments. This app is to assist you in using "waiting around times" as an opportunity for a spiritual service for others.

Suggestion: Pray for those closest to you and then extend your prayers to those you know least (e.g. family, then friends, then enemies, acquaintances, strangers, public figures, unknown - living or dead, etc.). Use your own prayers or click the prayer generator to generate a prayer suggestion. Some prayers are also available in Latin.
