“Bless Me Father, For I Have An Iphone”
I must confess. I borrowed that headline. I thought it was relevant and kinda of catchy. You see, confession has gone hi-tech and it now has the blessing of the Catholic Church in Indiana.
The iPhone app was made to "aid confession" not replace it. It was approved by the Bishop of the Fort Wayne, Indiana diocese. It was produced by Little iApps.
Developer Patrick Leinen, in a press release, said that he was inspired to create the program after hearing Pope Benedict XVI's World Communications Address. In that speech, the pope said that he hoped young people would "use modern means of social communication for their personal growth and to better prepare themselves to serve society." The release said that the app already "aided in returning one man to the sacrament after 20 years."
The app costs $1.99.
