# Desert Road Catholic > A free, independent daily companion for Catholic men making Exodus 90, the ninety-day journey of prayer, fasting and fraternity. Not affiliated with Exodus 90. Each of the 90 days has an opening prayer, the day's reading from the Book of Exodus (Douay-Rheims), a short reflection and practical encouragement. The days run in six stages, from night to sunrise, beginning January 11, 2027. Day 1's video, audio and transcript are open to everyone. Registration is free and unlocks the video, audio and transcript for Day 2 onward, unlocking day by day, plus a printable booklet and an invitation to the private community. Leaders get each day's material a week early. ## Pages - [Home](https://desertroadcatholic.com/): overview and free registration - [The 90 days](https://desertroadcatholic.com/days/): every daily reading with its date, in six stages - [Disciplines](https://desertroadcatholic.com/disciplines/): prayer, fasting, almsgiving and brotherhood, with ranges of how men live each - [The Armory](https://desertroadcatholic.com/armory/): traditional Catholic prayers, including the Rosary and the St. Michael prayer - [Guided Rosary](https://desertroadcatholic.com/armory/rosary/): pray today's Rosary mysteries step by step, with the scripture for each decade - [For leaders](https://desertroadcatholic.com/leaders/): tools for men leading a fraternity - [Leader notes](https://desertroadcatholic.com/leaders/notes/): weekly meeting outline, midweek check-in prompts and discussion questions for all 13 weeks - [Readiness check](https://desertroadcatholic.com/ready/): eight questions to decide if you're ready - [About](https://desertroadcatholic.com/about/): who's behind the site and why it's free - [Ways to follow along](https://desertroadcatholic.com/app/): on the web today, free; the iPhone and Android apps are coming soon - [Support](https://desertroadcatholic.com/support/): help with the iPhone app and the website, and how to reach us ## Guides - [What is Exodus 90?](https://desertroadcatholic.com/what-is-exodus-90/): Exodus 90 for men in plain words: prayer, asceticism and fraternity, the 2027 start, and how Desert Road Catholic fits in - [Exodus 90 without the app](https://desertroadcatholic.com/exodus-90-without-the-app/): how to do the ninety days for free, and what the official app costs - [When does Exodus 90 start in 2027?](https://desertroadcatholic.com/when-does-exodus-90-start/): Day 1 is Monday, January 11, 2027; key dates and preparation - [Is there an Exodus 90 for women?](https://desertroadcatholic.com/exodus-90-for-women/): Exodus 90 is for men; where women can look, and how wives can support their husbands - [Exodus 90 questions](https://desertroadcatholic.com/exodus-90-questions/): by yourself, is it Catholic, is it free, starting late, and how Desert Road Catholic fits in - [Exodus 90 rules](https://desertroadcatholic.com/exodus-90-rules/): what the program lists under prayer, asceticism and fraternity, paraphrased and linked to the official page; the fasting rules; a printable "My commitments" worksheet ## Key facts - Cost: free.
