Tuia is your daily prayer app. Tuia gathers people in prayer and reminds us that though we may be scattered (distant physically), we are one in prayer. For this purpose, the main features of Tuia are brought together in Daily Devotions, which weaves together Daily Devotions with Bible readings, your personal prayer list, shared prayers and more. Tuia makes it easy to: • Pray, write, and share prayers. • Keep a prayer private or share it with the community. • Follow others and pray for them. • Subscribe to community prayer lists. • Create or join a prayer group. • Be inspired with the included Bible readings and devotional content. The Anglican Church in Aotearoa, New Zealand and Polynesia is made up of three strands: Tikanga Māori, Tikanga Polynesia, and Tikanga Pākehā. These three strands are intended to honour different cultural ways of following Jesus. Tuia is intended to weave those strands together: to celebrate our languages and our prayers. The text of Daily Devotions is in Māori, Samoan and English. Set your primary language, then swipe the Daily Devotions text for quick access to the other languages. Woven into the Daily Devotions are the day’s Bible readings. The included Bible translations are • Te Paipera Tapu (MRI2012), • New Living Translation (NLT), and • New Revised Standard Version (NRSV). The daily readings follow the schedule published in Te Maramataka (The Lectionary) by the Anglican Church in Aotearoa, New Zealand and Polynesia. This schedule primarily follows the Revised Common Lectionary and Daily Eucharistic Lectionary, providing semi-continuous readings for the Old and New Testaments. The Revised Common Lectionary is a 3-year cycle used in many Christian churches, of differing traditions, throughout the world. On days where the Church remembers saints and martyrs, be inspired with short biographies and special Bible readings from For All the Saints. May all who encounter this app discover themselves bound to one another and woven into the One who gathers us all together: Weave, weave, weave us together, Tui, tui, tuituia mātou.
