Meditation
One line at a time, with space between. Choose the length, the music and the picture, from candlelit churches to sacred paintings from the National Gallery of Art, and add the Jesus Prayer, the Angelus or a few minutes of silence.

Inside MyOratory
Ways to pray
Rosary
The Anglican Rosary, the Catholic Rosary or your own Custom Rosary. The bead you are praying glows, the prayer is read, and Scripture can be added to each bead.
Arrow Prayer
For the moment you need it. Say what you are carrying and receive a verse, a short prayer and a minute of breath and silence.
Grow in the life of prayer: read about the fruit of the Spirit, love, joy, peace, and the rest, each with Scripture and a prayer, from AgileFruit, the makers of MyOratory.
The Collect for Purity
Almighty God, unto whom all hearts are open, all desires known, and from whom no secrets are hid: Cleanse the thoughts of our hearts by the inspiration of thy Holy Spirit, that we may perfectly love thee, and worthily magnify thy holy Name; through Christ our Lord. Amen.
