A Child's Guide to Prayer is a beautifully illustrated prayer book for Orthodox Christian children aged 5-10 who are just developing a habit of prayer. The selection includes morning and evening prayers, prayers during the day, at mealtimes, for family and friends, and prayers of and to the saints - along with psalms to pray and prayers that have to do with communion and confession. All the prayers were carefully selected by priests and youth workers to ensure their age-appropriateness. The 120-page guide also includes brief instructions on how to pray, why we pray, and a list of different ways to pray. The book concludes with several blank pages for personal prayer requests.

A prayer book for the whole family
You will find yourself reading over your child's shoulder! This beautiful little book is the right size for small hands, and the prayers are lovingly rendered in words a child can understand while still staying true to Orthodox tradition. The illustrations are adorable - so gentle, connecting natural and spiritual aspects of our world.
