OrientMe
Read full descriptionHide full description
OrientMe is a personal spiritual companion for Christians who want to grow closer to Christ. Built around seven progressive stages of prayer and practice, it gives your desire for God a clear, unhurried path — one that deepens over months and years, not days. Each stage introduces new practices drawn from centuries of Christian wisdom: morning and evening prayer, Scripture reading, the Rosary, Lectio Divina, fasting, works of mercy, and contemplative prayer. You move through the stages not by effort alone but by faithful daily practice. Check off your practices each day, and the journey quietly deepens. Grace covers every missed day — there is no streak to protect, no penalty for beginning again. The Prayer tab opens a guided session through five ancient movements: Be Still, Adore, Speak, Abide, and Carry. Sessions run five, ten, or fifteen minutes. Bring whatever you are carrying — grief, gratitude, confusion, or silence. All of it belongs. Each day, a saint is presented as a daily companion. Their life, their words, and a simple challenge show what it looks like to be more like Christ in ordinary life. The saints are not figures to admire from a distance. They are witnesses who walked this path before you. OrientMe requires no account and collects no personal data. Everything lives on your device. Your journey is entirely private — between you and God.
