A Catholic Yik Yak

·

Last week an app called 3D Catholic went live for iOS devices. Though the name might call to mind multi-dimensional shapes and the red and blue shades of movie theater glasses, the app possesses a far more pastoral feel. It opens to a trio of unadorned tabs on the home screen, one for each of the three main Catholic devotions: prayer, fasting and almsgiving. These are precisely what we need to promote, especially in the wake of the recent sexual assaults reported on campus.
