Your Catholic Agent From everyday activities to spiritual goals, BuildSaints helps you encounter God — prayer, Scripture, and community, grown the way you want. 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 - The day's Mass readings, and today's Gospel as a short film each morning - Reflections and prayers written for your own intentions, read aloud - An Examen that helps you find God's presence in your day Ask, and It's Made Everything happens in one simple chat. Say what you need in your own words: - "A prayer for my mother's surgery tomorrow" — written for her and read aloud. - "A short film on St. Teresa of Ávila" — her story and her own words. - "A reading plan on the Psalms, one each morning at 7" — it comes daily, at your time. - "A trivia on today's Gospel" — to play now or send to friends. Anything that should come every day arrives on your schedule, and you can turn it off in one tap. Ideas and Goals - Ideas — fresh ways to grow, picked for where you are: a prayer to try, a reading to start, a feast to keep, a game to play. - Goals — your spiritual goals in your own words, with a clear path and gentle tracking, never pressure. Daily Groups Start a group with friends, your parish, or your school. Each morning the day's Gospel film arrives, followed by one quick game: which line stuck with you, and can you guess what your group picked? Invite anyone with a link or a QR code — friends can join and play right away on the web, with no download needed. Events in New York A feed of young adult Catholic events across New York City, from Masses and holy hours to talks, socials and retreats, with RSVPs and short films that explain the teaching behind them. Saints You Find in Person Walk with a saint as your intercessor. Visit a partner church and scan a statue or a sacred work of art to meet that saint or devotion, then keep what you find in your collection. Going Further — When You're Ready Connect more of your life if you'd like: invest your money according to the Church's teaching, set spending habits that support your goals, or bring the people and places in your week into your prayer. These are always optional and always yours to decide — nothing is done in your name without your tap. Rooted in the Tradition BuildSaints draws on Scripture, the liturgical calendar, the Catechism, the Church's documents — including Magnifica Humanitas — and the writings of the saints, quoted exactly and cited. It never speaks for God, and never replaces a priest or the sacraments. Your reflections and personal content stay private — never sold, never shared. You choose what you connect and what you share. Free to begin — every daily practice, your groups, and your community, with a generous weekly allowance for things made just for you. A membership removes the weekly limit.

Too many tasks. Too many lists. Nothing gets done. One Task is a simple, minimalist task manager built around one idea: focus on one task at a time. Instead of filling another endless to-do list, One Task lets you set just one main task. No overwhelming backlog. No constantly changing priorities. Just one clear thing to focus on right now. Do one thing. Finish it. Then move on. ■ FOCUS ON ONE TASK You can have only one main task at a time. This simple constraint removes the question of “What should I do next?” and helps you stay focused on what matters most. ■ BREAK BIG TASKS INTO SMALL STEPS A task can feel overwhelming when you don’t know where to start. Break your main task into up to 5 smaller, actionable subtasks and tackle it one step at a time. ■ AUTOMATIC TASK ARCHIVE Finished a task? It’s automatically moved to your archive. Look back at what you’ve accomplished or restore a previous task whenever you need it. ■ SAVE IT FOR LATER WITH VAULT Thought of something else you need to do? Put it in Vault instead of interrupting your current task. Save ideas and future tasks for later while keeping your attention on what matters right now. ■ AI SUBTASK BREAKDOWN Not sure how to get started? Enter your main task and let AI break it down into clear, actionable subtasks. Choose only the suggestions that make sense for you and add them with a tap. Free users can try AI Subtask Breakdown once per day. Subscribe to AI Subtask Breakdown to increase your subtask limit from 5 to 10, for both AI-generated and manually added subtasks. ONE TASK IS FOR YOU IF: • Your to-do list keeps getting longer • Too many tasks make it hard to decide where to start • You want a simple task manager without unnecessary complexity • You struggle with procrastination or task overwhelm • You want to focus on one thing at a time • You like breaking big tasks into smaller steps • You want a cleaner way to manage work, study, or daily tasks • Traditional productivity apps feel like too much work Most task managers help you manage more tasks. One Task helps you focus on fewer. Stop managing everything. Start finishing one thing. One Task — one task at a time. No accounts. No complex features. Just one task at a time.
