About this listen

We are living in difficult times, both in the Church and in the world. Now more than ever, ordinary Catholics must fight for the salvation of souls and personal sanctity. Latin is the universal language of the Church, made holy when it was nailed to the Cross with Christ (John 19:19–20). It connects us to the worship of Heaven and strengthens our prayers.

In 2017, I wanted to pray the Rosary in Latin but couldn’t find a podcast to follow. So I made one. It has since grown into a full library of Rosaries, Litanies, Chaplets, and other traditional prayers. I’ve also created Latin learning guides and printable resources, available through Patreon, to help you pray with clarity and confidence, whether on your own or with your family.

This is about restoring Catholic prayer, reclaiming sacred tradition, and forming a movement of families praying daily in Latin for the salvation of souls and the renewal of Holy Mother Church.

    Visits to the Blessed Sacrament is a classic Catholic Eucharistic adoration meditation by St. Alphonsus Liguori, taken from The Holy Eucharist.

    In this reading, St. Alphonsus guides the faithful in how to pray before the Blessed Sacrament and encourages a deeper devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary as part of Eucharistic prayer. This meditation is ideal for Eucharistic adoration, quiet prayer at home, and spiritual renewal.

    This Catholic prayer is especially helpful for: • Eucharistic Adoration • Prayer before the Blessed Sacrament • Traditional Catholic devotion • Marian devotion united to the Eucharist • Penance, conversion, and spiritual growth

  • Latin Collect for the Lost (Deus Qui Errantibus) | FREE Latin Learning Guide (Audio Only)
    Jan 16 2026

    “Deus qui errantibus” is an ancient Latin collect dating back to the 6th century, prayed for the return of the lost.

    This episode explores Deus qui errantibus, a powerful collect from the Roman Rite, preserved nearly unchanged for over 1400 years. First appearing in the Verona Sacramentary around 561-574 AD and later in the Gelasian and Gregorian Sacramentaries, this prayer intercedes for those who have wandered from the truth, asking God to shine the light of His truth so they may return to the path.

    We reflect on its timeless relevance, especially in seasons like Advent, when many return to Mass. Beyond pleading for the conversion of others, this collect calls Christians to reject what is unworthy of Christ’s name and to strive after what glorifies Him.

    This episode includes a full line-by-line breakdown of the Latin, with etymological insights that deepen our understanding of its theological beauty and linguistic precision.

  • Learn the the Night Prayer (Visita quaesumus, Domine) in Latin | FREE Latin Learning Guide (Audio Only)
    Dec 19 2025

    This episode of The Latin Prayer Podcast explores Visita, quaesumus, Domine, a traditional night prayer from the Church’s Compline, rich in monastic and scriptural heritage. With deep roots in the Benedictine tradition, this prayer asks God to visit our home, cast out the snares of the enemy, and send His holy angels to guard us through the night.

    We unpack each Latin line with clarity and reverence, helping you understand both the vocabulary and the spiritual meaning behind every phrase. Learn how this ancient prayer became a beloved part of Catholic family life, and why it remains a powerful act of trust in God's protection before sleep.
