Calendar and original texts
The liturgical calendar (seasons, movable feasts, colors, cycles) is calculated by the app for the General Roman Calendar, with country packs, and for the Orthodox (Julian) calendar. Saint biographies, the examination of conscience, the guide to Confession, novena and Lent and Advent texts, learning articles, children's stories and the Rosary meditations are original texts written for Gracely.
