This best selling prayerbook has now been redesigned for a much wider audience. This treasury of prayers for the third Christian millennium offers practical guidance for an increasingly busy world. Cardinal Basil Hume, in his foreword, writes "the need for us to be people of prayer has never been more urgent. We know that unless we are deeply rooted in a sense of God's presence and able to refer all things to God, then our pilgrimage into the future will be marked more by uncertainty than by peace which is God's gift." This book's extensive range includes favourite Catholic prayers such as the "Rosary" and the "Stations of the Cross," along with others that may be less familiar, organised under many different themes and topics. Helpful introductions and a pattern of daily prayers make this book nothing less than a course in Christian spirituality. This book is for people approaching Christian prayer for the first time as well as for those who want to begin afresh. It will be especially helpful to young people and the parents and teachers who want to help them learn to pray in the living tradition of the Church.
