✦ What's Inside

Everything you need
to grow in faith.

Ask

Bring a question or something you're carrying. Cana answers from Scripture and the Catholic faith, and suggests a concrete next step.

The Catholic Bible

All 73 books, in the Douay-Rheims or the World English Bible (Catholic Edition), fully offline — with an explanation for every verse drawn from the Church Fathers and the Catechism.

Daily Mass Readings

The day's readings, following the liturgical calendar, and a reflection on the Gospel: what's happening, how the Church reads it, and what it asks of you.

Meditation

Pray with Scripture as the saints taught: the Church's prayers to begin and end, the Word read slowly, and one small resolution — on today's Gospel, or on what you're walking through.

Saint of the Day

A saint for nearly every day of the year, with classic sacred art, the story of their life, and what it asks of us today.

Small Groups

Run a Bible study with your parish group or friends: a ready-made guide with historical context, how the Church reads the passage, and questions to discuss.

The Rosary

Pray it bead by bead, with today's mysteries chosen for you, a painting and a short meditation for every mystery — or a decade at a time.

Prayer Book

The traditional prayers — the Memorare, the Angelus, the Act of Contrition, prayers for the sick and the dying and more — always at hand, with your favourites first.

Prayer Journal

Write what the day's Gospel stirs in you. Private to you, kept in your own iCloud — and talk it over with Cana when you like.

The Church Year

A novena before the Immaculate Conception and the O Antiphons in Advent, the Stations of the Cross in Lent, the Examen every evening — and a reminder the evening before each holy day.

Learn the Faith

The Mass explained part by part, how to go to Confession with an examination of conscience, and the Commandments, Beatitudes and Sacraments — for anyone new, or coming back.

Listen

Hear any chapter of the Bible, the day's readings, the Rosary and your prayers read aloud — following along verse by verse, with the screen locked. "Hey Siri, pray the Rosary in Cana."
