## What is BuildSaints?

Your Catholic Agent

Turn your daily activities into a walk with God. Invest, budget, play — through an intercessor's eyes, alongside your parish.


As introduced in Plan of Life: Daily Habits book by Msgr. Roger Landry. The core practices include:
- The Morning Offering, the Rosary, and the Liturgy of the Hours
- Mass readings with commentary personalized to you
- Reflections with consideration for your intercessor's teachings
- An Examen that helps you find God's presence in your day. 

Five Areas of Your Life That You Can View Through The Daily Practices

- Investing — every holding scored on USCCB-aligned screens beside a return outlook. When a company you own announces a casino, the score moves, selling is one tap, and the morning reading cites the teaching.
- Personal finances — spending rules you write in plain words: "coffee, more than three this week." A trip lands in tonight's examen, not in a chart.
- Places & time — where your hours actually go — the gym, the library, the coffee line — seen honestly, and held gently against the person you're becoming.
- Relationships — the names in your week become intentions: a line for Joe before his 9:00 meeting, held again at night.
- Events — your community's calendar, prepared before and carried after — a reading on the way in, the recap and trivia after.

Through an Intercessor's Eyes

The figures stand in your parish's own church, and you choose one each Sunday — tying the week to the place you actually attend. Their charism is a lens on your real activities: the same reading leans mercy under St. Teresa of Calcutta and the dignity of work under St. John Paul II. Begin in the app, or at a statue in a partner church — scan the plaque in any phone browser, and your first reading is already waiting.

Alongside Your Parish

Your parish community walks the same days — digital between events, in person at them:
- 1:1 topic matches — a fast round of trivia on today's topic, one thing you each learned. Loser prays for the winner.
- Small groups and feast-day rounds — shared practices, group games, events with the prep and recap attached.
- Service nights — hands, not only alms, with the prayer carried before and after.
Drawn from young-adult groups and parish calendars across the five New York boroughs.

Composed, Not Canned — and Yours to Remake

Every card is written fresh from your morning, your money, the news your holdings make, the names in your week — woven with Scripture and the teaching, cited. Say it plainly and it's yours in seconds, with your confirmation at every step:
- "Tonight's examen in St. John Paul II's voice — answers keyed to the Theology of the Body."
- "Watch my spending: coffee, more than three this week — hold it for the examen."
- "Connect my calendar and find adoration times that fit my free hours, at the churches closest to me."
The agent proposes; you decide — nothing is done in your name without your tap.

Rooted in the Tradition

BuildSaints follows Msgr. Roger Landry's Plan of Life and the moral theology of St. Thomas Aquinas. It draws on the liturgical calendar, Church doctrine, and the works of the saints — and everything on your day passes the same alignment check grounded in the Catechism. It never speaks for God, and never replaces a priest or the sacraments.

Your reflections and personal content personalize your formation — never sold, never shared. You choose what you connect and what you share.

Free to begin — every daily practice, every figure, your community. The Full Walk membership connects your whole week, without limits.

### 5/5 — Build catholic habits

*2026-06-20*

This app makes it easy to develop good habits like prayer, attending adoration and mass, reading scripture, or finding Catholic events near you easily. Highly recommend for any Catholic trying to live more intentionally

### 5/5 — Very helpful

*2026-04-26*

I have been using this app for over two weeks and find it extremely helpful. The commentary in response to my personal statement, which you can edit as things evolve, is very much on point and based upon scripture and sacred writings. I chose St Ignatius having just done a remote retreat in the Examen Prayer and the app’s comments were really insightful and have helped me to recognize behaviors I have been trying to correct and the context in which they develop. The ability to create a daily prayer routine crafted by the app based on scripture and sacred writings with reminders throughout the day is so helpful with the schedules we keep these days. I feel like I have taken a big step forward since using the app.
