I love being able to check the upcoming lections while I am in the grocery line And I am never at a loss for words in any pastoral situation                     Excellent MonicaMommy

The content is exceptional and it is a nifty little app as it will be helpful for any pastor especially the Lutheran kind I wish the option to swipe a la book existed                     Pastoral Care Companion Digitized Patrick&Sara

The iOS 9 update is a wonderful enhancement of an already excellent app ANY Pastor Lutheran or not could benefit from the wisdom distilled and made so readily available on this app Thanks CPH                     Wonderful update C Huckaby

This is a generous app and I greatly appreciate the resources included I agree with the earlier comment that bookmarks should return you to your exact place This is the first CPH app I ve owned which works better than anything else out there and the first pastoral app to make me wholeheartedly excited Thank you                     What a great app Pr. Steve

Very helpful in my ministry to the shut in and for all my pastoral calls                     Ministry agenda at hand Hairy hopper

This app is awesome Having it on my phone means it is ALWAYS with me I prefer this to my paper version since the paper version is now to small for me to read anymore I have 3 suggestions for future versions 1 Bookmarks should be able to go right to the exact paragraph you want to start with not just the beginning of each rite etc 2 The font sizes are fine now but as my eyes age I hope there will be larger font size choices in the future Note I am using this on an iPhone 6 plus 3 Something to add to the wish list would be audio files for the hymns since there are no notes If needed I can go to my new LSB Hymnal iBook for the printed notes Anyway thanks for a GREAT resource                     Love it but here are 3 suggestions ZeBlingHarmMyKnee

This is rather Lutheran in its style but any pastor can use the prayers the scripture readings and the order of services here to make any occasion more beautiful more godly and more Christ centered I am a baptist minister and find this indispensable I use this app for graveside and funeral services blessing a house baby dedication and more This is my go to app for service related ideas topics passages and events If you are a pastor a chaplain or a church leader get this                     Every pastor must own this Antiduplicity

This is an excellent resource for LCMS pastors While I don t bring my iPad on pastoral calls it is very helpful in preparing prayers checking rites choosing hymn texts etc Thanks CPH                     Excellent Resource for Pastors mummified

Chaplains pastors elders and visitors of the sick homebound and hospitalized can benefit from this resource The propers for each Sunday and feast day according to the calendar of the Lutheran Service Book could only be inproved by including the introit and source s for the introit Well done                     An App for every chap theLutheran1

Scads of content But psalm tone doesn t play on Ipad 3 Wish I could print out parts of contents             Psalm tone won t play Pastor CO1

I like the app for what it promises to do I have a 3Gs phone and it seems to crash every time I open it When I get it to work I ll be able to comment on it more accuratly         I want to like it Pastor Satch

A handy app for on the go I only wish that under the Propers tab the Sunday Introits Graduals and Tracts were among the selected readings for Sundays and Feast Days                 Jason Braaten Braats77

Glad to see the universality for iPhone iPad was added but it crashed on my iPad as soon as I opened it Deleting the app and reinstalling seems to have solved the issue Love the appearance on the iPad s big screen                 Almost there RevMDR

This is a great app and what I have wanted better than using the Kindle version but please please bring a native iPad version of this app I purchased without reading closely but it does say for iPad but has no sign for univeral usage and don t like having to use the 2x button to fill the screen not the best quality this way Otherwise a great app and hopefully I won t have to pay again to get the native iPad version only gave 3 stars since it is not iPad native otherwise it is 5 stars             Needs iPad native version mrborgs

Excellent way to take some ministry tools on the road Psalms even have the music to listen to However none of the hymns seem to have the printed music let alone the audio Seems a bit like an after thought rather than integration into the app Hymns also do not have the option to list them by hymn number Finally this one has me stumped no iPad version Thats unfortunate and shows a lack of foresight Using an iPhone app on an iPad is NOT the same as an iPad app This is an excellent start but not quite 5 stars yet As the first generation of this application it s a great start                 Good but not great yet Scott Jensen

The Pastoral Care Companion is equally valuable as a Layman s Care Companion I have found the prayers and other resources of immense value in caring for my family and friends Being able to have it on my iPhone will make this resource available wherever I find myself I especially like the fact that all the Propers have the full texts of all the lectionary readings for the entire church year You can also select the one year or three year lectionary Here s a tip that took a little time to figure out To take advantage of the 8 Psalm tones which include audio of pipe organ accompaniment you have to go to More button at the bottom click on Options and turn on Chant Markings which is off in the default mode you download it in This is also where you can choose between the one year and three year lectionaries as well as change the font size for the program You can also select Inverted Mode which displays the readings and rites in night mode white text on black background This really is a fantastic resource that I would suggest the head of every family should have in print and or electronic format I have recommended the book countless times to fellow laymen Thanks CPH for providing this I have a couple suggestion for a future update The additional resources of the Visitation book edited by Revs Arthur Just and Scott Kinnaman would be a nice add on It would also be nice to be able to edit the bookmarks                     Invaluable Resource Erich Heidenreich
