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.
