Silent Prayer

A small, quiet companion for the prayer of silence.

There is nothing to achieve here. You choose a word, set a length of time, and sit. A gentle bell opens and closes the silence. When your mind wanders, your word is simply a way to return.

Built to get out of the way

Rest in the silence Choose your word New to silence A soft place to land

Six small steps, and then quiet

1

Choose a sacred word

Pick from suggestions like Peace, Abba, or Be still, or enter your own. Your words are yours to edit, reorder, and keep.

2

Set your time

Anywhere from 5 to 30 minutes. Begin where you are.

3

Choose your bell

A singing bowl, a chime, a low gong, or silence marked by a gentle vibration. It opens and closes your prayer.

4

Settle, if you like

An optional breath leads you in before the silence begins.

5

Rest in the quiet

A calm screen holds your word and the time, so you can close your eyes and let go.

6

Land gently

Afterward, a soft reflection asks how it was. Nothing is graded. The time was never wasted.

New to silence?

A short in-app guide walks you through the practice, drawn from our Silent Prayer Starter Guide. If you would rather read first, the full guide is a free download.

What people are saying

Can we just take a moment and talk about how AMAZING the silent prayer app is?!? first, it’s beautiful and calming and clean to look at. which isn’t the most important thing but it’s up there. esp when i don’t even particularly like sitting in silence to begin with—i don’t need another excuse to not do it haha. then the fact that you’ve thought of every possible preference i could ever want: dark mode, reminders, the bell sounds, customizable sacred words, a guide, starting w/breathing or not, a place to jot down a note afterwards, streak tracker, customizable length of time—THIS IS THE GOAT OF ALL PRAYER APPS!!
