About & Credits

Prayer Corner assembles the Daily Office of the Book of Common Prayer — Morning, Noonday, and Evening Prayer, and Compline — with the Daily Office Lectionary, the Psalter, the Rule of St Benedict, and practices of stillness. Nothing here is generated: every prayer, psalm, and reading comes from the sources below, with gratitude.

The Prayer Book & Copyright

The liturgical texts in Prayer Corner are reproduced from the 1979 Book of Common Prayer, which The Episcopal Church has deliberately left free of copyright so that its worship may be freely used by all. The texts are presented verbatim and unaltered, with page references to the printed book throughout — the same page numbers in every pew copy.

Privacy

What you write — your journal, your prayer list — stays on your device unless you create an account, and with one it is readable only by you. The only measurement Prayer Corner makes is a daily count of how many people used each part of the app: a single number per feature per day, stored with no names, accounts, devices, or addresses attached, so it cannot say who prayed — only that someone did. Nothing you read, write, or pray for is ever part of it, and there are no third-party trackers. You can turn this off in Settings, under Usage Data — signed in, it follows your account to every device; signed out, it applies to that device alone. The full policy lives at Privacy Policy.

Audio streams from each ministry's own servers. This is a personal devotional project, not an official publication of The Episcopal Church.
