Description
A threefold pattern of praising, listening, and responding is how Christians pray. We honor God and give thanks. Then we listen to God through Bible readings, in quiet moments of intentional waiting for God’s voice, and sometimes through other people’s words. And finally we respond to God, giving the love of our hearts and the renewed dedication of our lives, interceding for others, and receiving a blessing. Whether we are young or old, in families or as individuals, accustomed to formal prayers or spontaneous ones, Christians naturally pray in this three-part form. This collection of prayers reflects this familiar way of praying.The words of these prayers are taken directly from the Bible or use words minimally adapted from it. In each service we read a psalm portion, a Gospel text, and another scripture passage. The structure of the services, the three calls—to praise, discipleship, and intercession—use scripture words, as do the words of thanksgiving and (in the evening) confession. Every service includes a Gospel song—of Zechariah, Mary, or Simeon—or a recitation of the Beatitudes or an early Christian hymn. In each service we pray the Lord’s Prayer and hear a biblical benediction.
Early Anabaptists learned much scripture by heart; we hope that those who use these services will be inspired to do the same. We trust that by praying these scripture-saturated prayers, you will find your moments and your days and nights suffused with “the remembered Word,” a hallmark of Anabaptist spirituality.
The prominent place given to Jesus in these prayers also resonates with a sixteenth-century Anabaptist concern: following Christ in life. The themes chosen for the prayers for ordinary time are important elements in the New Testament witness to Jesus: the Lord’s Prayer (the focus of Week 1), the Beatitudes (Week 2), the parables of Jesus (Week 3), and the signs and wonders performed by Jesus (Week 4). The prayers for the seasons of the church year focus our attention on Jesus’ coming; his cross (seen as of a piece with his preaching, teaching, and healing ministry), resurrection, and ascension; and the coming of his Spirit on the church. The focus on Jesus’ life and teachings in the services is intended to aid us in deeply internalizing Jesus’ example and his words of challenge and comfort.
The scriptures selected reflect intensive work to identify foundational texts of early Anabaptists. Selections also speak to concerns of Anabaptists today, such as peace, justice, ecology, feminist sensitivities, ecumenical commitments, and regard for each testament, in its own right, as God’s inspired word.
This collection of prayers has found a place in many settings. People use it to lead devotions at committee meetings and conferences and in small groups, congregations shape morning worship on its pattern, ministers offer pastoral prayers informed by its petitions, student groups gather around it, individuals use it for personal prayer. Families who have never held devotions report that this collection has enabled them to enjoy reading Scripture and praying together: school-age children lead their own parts of the service, and younger ones learn the repeated elements by heart and offer their own prayers of thanks and petitions in the spaces for free prayer.
This mobile app makes these prayer services available to users in an easy-to-navigate format, as close at hand as your digital device. Features include navigation to a recommended service for the date and time of day, tracking to keep your place in the sequence of services, an ability to call up particular services, introductory materials and extensive indices that enable searches for particular texts. You can also select preferred versions of repeated elements (Glory, canticles, the Lord’s Prayer), which are then embedded in the service you are praying.

Questions & Answers
Q: What is an APK File?
A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.
Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.
Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?
A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.
Q: What are Android App permissions?
A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.
Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

3 ★Generally really good app. Unfortunately the prayers seem to be out of sink with the actual calendar day even when selecting the date manually. For example, today is a Wednesday but the app is showing prayers for "Signs and Wonders Friday". Would be 5 stars if not for that and if Today's Prayers updated with each new day
4 ★Hard to find in my app list. Keep looking for 'Take...' otherwise fine once I locate it.
5 ★Very smooth and usable.
5 ★I have search so long for an anabaptist, Mennonite like devotional app and this hits the nail on the head! really inclusive. thank you.
5 ★This is really awesome! I like being able to find the daily prayer at the touch of a button. It could be neat if the app would automatically know the current date and time so it could open to the right prayer. It would also be neat if the app could be set to send me push reminders a couple times a day to encourage me to use it. Thanks for making this available for free!
