A Library of Traditional Catholic Prayers, in Your Pocket
Pelican+ unveils major update and offers a free trial
As I’m out of town for Thanksgiving, visiting family and friends, my time for writing and posting has shrunk to nearly nothing. As a result, I’ll resume the usual roundup next week.
However, I didn’t want to let this day pass without telling you some important news about Pelican+.
As you probably know, Pelican+ makes available three types of content: streaming videos (podcasts, documentaries), recited or sung prayer, and writing (articles and essays, ebooks). Straddling these categories would be our audiobooks and dramatizations.
Pelican+ contains a growing library of traditional prayers, recited or chanted by our own contributors — not by dodgy celebrities, not by automated AI voices, but by the people you already know and trust. Move over, Hallow; there’s a new app in town.
Watch this one-minute video for a quick introduction to what we offer you in this regard, and why we think it’s going to be helpful to our users:
As of this week, our prayer library has been significantly expanded — and we want you to be able to explore it yourself.
That’s why we’ve made the Pelican+ Prayer App FREE for EVERYONE, now through November 30th! No paywall. No catch.
Just sign up for a free account and unlock the entire prayer library, including Latin prayers, chants, devotions, and so much more.
This is the perfect time to dive in, strengthen your prayer life as we approach the start of Advent, and experience what Pelican+ offers:
Examples of what you can find there:
Litanies of the Holy Name, the Sacred Heart, the Precious Blood, Our Lady of Loreto, St. Joseph
Prayers before and after Communion (good for on the way to church or on the way home)
Prayers of consecration and reparation
Prayers to the Angels and Archangels; devotions to various saints
Many prayers chanted in Latin: the Angelus; the Prayer for the Pope; the 15 Mysteries of the Rosary
The Daily Mass Propers for the 1962 and pre-1955 Roman Missals (currently as text; coming soon in audio format!)
Prime and Compline in the traditional Roman Breviary
Morning and Evening prayers
the Four Gospels read aloud, in the Douay-Rheims version (with more of the Bible to come — next, the book of Psalms)

I strongly encourage you to head over and see for yourself what Pelican+ is building: a “digital cathedral” for Catholics all over the world — for men and women who love the Lord, His Mother, and the angels and saints, and who are open to using new means to follow the well-trodden paths of tradition as they seek the sanctification of their souls.
Free for all users through November 30th. Check it out today!
A last reminder: As of December 1, Tradition & Sanity will have its permanent home at Pelican+. Articles will continue to be announced at this Substack, but they will be found in full only there.








When the articles are announced here, I'm assuming that there will be a link to pelican. Will this link take paid subscribers past the pelican paywall?
Thank you! I’m so excited. I don't like the Hollow app because of the celebrities. This way, I’ve read so much of y'all, that I’m going to feel right at home.
