Few experiences in life are more difficult than finding the right words to comfort someone who is ill or dying. Matters can become even more complicated if the afflicted person is of a different religious background than your own.

To help health care professionals, chaplains, and anyone else who must face these kinds of situations head-on, we offer the Interfaith Care for the Ill app.

The ICI app is a beautiful and easy-to-navigate reference guide that puts key information on the five major world religions (Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam, and Judaism) at your fingertips.

Users will find:
-Brief introductions to the five major religions and their histories
-Overviews of their central beliefs
-Lists of key practices and rituals for dealing with sickness or death, along with suggested modifications that may be necessary in modern medical facilities
-Prayers of comfort for the afflicted along with prayers to share with loved ones in times of grief

With just a few swipes of your finger, the ICI app will help you offer critical spiritual comfort with grace and confidence to anyone in their time of need.
