The Catholic Family Book Of Prayers

What ever happened to family prayers? It's not too late to start your own tradition. This beautiful leather-bound book helps make faith and prayer a part of your life at home, at work, and everywhere you go.

This reformated and updated edition of A Prayer Book for Catholic Families is an invaluable resource for Catholic families who value traditional prayer but are not always sure how to incorporate it into contemporary life. Designed with the typical modern family in mind, the book teaches families what to pray and how to pray-and does so in a way that doesn't require a lot of time or any special knowledge on their part. It includes all the basic Catholic prayers, covering a broad array of topics and situations in life.

Whether you've just begun to pray or have been faithfully praying for years, the wisdom in this book will help you pray better. Fr. Lawrence Lovasik here shows you innumerable ways you can avoid common obstacles and deepen your prayer life, no matter how much or how little you may have prayed before.

Praying together not only enriches family life but also leads the Catholic family toward its primary goal: the holiness and salvation of each member. This wonderful little book provides a simple and easy-to-implement plan for family prayer. Arranged successively according to the basic stages of prayer, A Short Guide to Praying as a Family allows each family to progress step by step from one level of prayer to the next. Beautiful stained-glass images invite you to enter the mystery of each prayer and give glory to God as a family. Designed to be used throughout the day, this book will help your family speak to God, turn to Him for help, listen to Him, and praise Him. What better gift could you give them? Compiled by The Dominican Sisters of St. Cecilia in Nashville, this little book is backed by a strong Catholic tradition rooted in teaching the faith. From making time to recite basic oral prayers throughout the day to making each moment of life a prayer, A Short Guide to Praying as a Family is a lifelong guide to the spiritual life and a powerful means to building a relationship with the Lord.
