The article published in “Gość Niedzielny” by Agata Combik presents the initiative to create the Biblical Chaplets application as a new form of prayer with the Word of God, yet deeply rooted in the Church’s tradition. Its creators, Jolanta and Jerzy Prokopiuk, were inspired by the practices of the Desert Fathers, Lectio Divina, and the so-called Tent of Meeting. Their goal was to find a way for the Holy Scripture not to remain merely a reading, but to truly accompany individuals in their daily lives.

As the article’s author emphasizes, repetition and simplicity are key here:

"For the word of God is living and active (cf. Heb 4:12) and can gradually penetrate human thoughts and heart."
Ed. Agata Combik

What does prayer with Biblical Chaplets involve?

The form of Biblical Chaplets refers to the structure of the rosary. The prayer begins with an invocation to the Holy Spirit, then proceeds through five larger beads with longer passages from Holy Scripture and five decades of shorter verses. The whole concludes with an act of entrustment, inspired by the attitude of Mary and her “fiat”. This structure makes the prayer short, possible to undertake at any time of day, and at the same time profound and directly based on the Bible.

Biblical Chaplets Mobile Application

The article pays special attention to the mobile application that supports the practice of Biblical Chaplets. This tool has been placed under the honorary patronage of Archbishop Józef Kupny and is available on the most popular mobile platforms. Users can:

  • use ready-made Biblical Chaplets,
  • create their own sets of Holy Scripture passages,
  • choose the “Chaplet of the Day” based on liturgical readings,
  • pray in silence or with accompanying audio and music.

The application is available in Polish and English, allowing it to be used also outside the country.

Symbolism and Graphic Design

An important element of the initiative is the visual layer. The graphics, designed by a graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts, feature biblical motifs such as ears of grain, an olive tree, or a fig tree. As Jerzy Prokopiuk explains:
"Each of these symbols has its specific meaning rooted in Holy Scripture."

Testimonies from Prayer Participants

The article also cites testimonies from individuals using Biblical Chaplets. Sister Paula notes that this form of prayer helped her to “carry the Word” in her daily life, despite numerous duties and distractions. Meanwhile, Ania emphasizes the practical dimension of the Chaplets:
"The fact that such a chaplet is short allows me to return to it many times throughout the day."

Biblical Chaplets as a Response to the Needs of Contemporary Christians

The author of the article indicates that Biblical Chaplets are a response to the pace of contemporary life and the need for simple, yet profound forms of spirituality. They are particularly recommended during periods such as Advent, when the faithful seek ways to more consciously experience their relationship with God. The full article is available on the “Gość Niedzielny” portal and serves as a valuable resource for all interested in prayer with the Word of God and new evangelization initiatives.
