Coptic Way: Agpeya & Bible

Coptic Way brings together the prayers, the Scriptures and the calendar of the Coptic Orthodox Church, for praying the hours each day. THE AGPEYA • The seven hours of the day, the Veil and the three watches of the Midnight prayer, in full • Each hour's psalms, Gospel and litanies, with the prayers common to every hour set in place • Occasional prayers, such as before and after meals and Communion • Comfortable reading in Day or Night, at the text size you choose THE BIBLE • The whole Bible: the Old Testament from the Septuagint (Brenton), with Tobit, Judith, Wisdom, Sirach, Baruch and the Maccabees, and the New Testament in the King James Version, with a few archaic words put into modern English • Jump straight to any book, chapter or verse • Reading plans to go through it a little each day THE COPTIC CALENDAR • Today's Coptic date, with the fasts and feasts of the year • The days and times you go to the Liturgy HABITS • Choose what you'd like to keep: an hour of the Agpeya, a reading plan, or both, and how often • Today shows what's next, and a gentle reminder can call you to it CIRCLES • Keep your habits with family and friends: start a circle and send its link or code • Each person chooses what the circle sees, from which habits they kept to nothing at all • Agree on habits together, and share out the week's psalms APPLE WATCH • Use your watch as a remote while you pray: turn the Digital Crown to scroll the prayer on your iPhone, jump between its sections, and set the pace of auto-scroll PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account and no sign-up. Everything works offline. Your prayers and habits stay on your devices and in your own iCloud, and a circle sees only what you choose to share. Nothing is sent to us.
