@sg_daily_gospel_bot · a Telegram bot for Singapore Catholics

The Word of the Lord, straight to your Telegram.

Full Catholic mass readings, delivered at 6, 7 or 8 in the morning, midday, 5pm, or an hour of your own, Singapore time. Read the Gospel over kopi, on the MRT, or in the quiet before the house stirs. No app, no ads, no account.

This is what six a.m. looks like.

The readings follow the Singapore liturgical calendar, in the Jerusalem Bible translation from Universalis. Not a link to tap. Not a site to load. The reading itself, waiting in the chat.

Prefer just the Gospel? Tell it once, and that is all it sends.

Three taps tonight, scripture tomorrow.

1

Press start

Open @sg_daily_gospel_bot and hit /start. It asks your name once, then greets you by it every morning after.

2

Choose your hour

/subscribe sets delivery at 6, 7 or 8am, 12pm, 5pm, or a custom time, SGT. Pick full readings or Gospel only, and whether you want a daily verse alongside.

3

Wake, read, pray

The readings are at the top of your chats before your alarm's second snooze. That is the whole habit.

And whenever you ask:

/today

Today's full mass readings, any time of day.

/readings

Tomorrow, this Sunday, or any date. Handy for lectors preparing a reading.

/truth

A single verse from anywhere in scripture, when you need one.

Divine Office
