Children's Daily Prayer for Summer is a way to pray everyday, all summer long at home or in classrooms. At its heart is a simple order of prayer for one person alone or for two or more praying together. Those who have used Children's Daily Prayer in the classroom will recognize these pages at once. This summer book begins on June 1 and ends on August 31, and it can be qsed summer after summer. Each day has a wonderful little introduction to the saint or the festival or just to some wonder of summer. Prayer begins with the sign of the cross. There is a psalm prayed each day of the month, then a scripture reading new for every day. After the scripture reading there are always a few questions to help make connections between the scripture and the day's saint. Then comes a closing prayer and the Our Father. And finally, a surprise for each day. More than children will love using this book. Parents, grandparents, the sick and homebound will love the simple order of daily prayer. It can also be used in the parish to begin or end meetings. Its language is simple and clear, not childish. You'll also find a section of prayers for special occasions including birthdays, Father's Day, rainy days, vacation time and sad days. Paperback, 8 1/2 x 11, 120 pages.
