Catholic Home FAMILY PRAYER CORNER

Catholic Home FAMILY PRAYER CORNER

SEPTEMBER Your Catholic Home FAMILY PRAYER CORNER Jesus is the heart of a Catholic home, and a very important and special part of your relationship with Him is prayer. Prayer is a conversation with God that St. Thérèse of Lisieux described as “a surge of the heart.” Having a special place where parents and children gather to pray will go a long way toward helping you make prayer a regular part of your family life. Practice It! If you do not already have a dedicated place set aside for your family to pray, create a simple prayer space this month. Set up a “prayer corner” in your kitchen or family room on a mantel, a small table, or simply a special shelf in a bookcase. Add a crucifix, a candle, and an icon or two. Two icons that you can cut out and frame are provided in this book on pages 9 and 11. 4 © SOPHIA INSTITUTE PRESS SEPTEMBER Activity 2 Basic Catholic Prayers FAMILY PRAYER ACTIVITY Age level: All ages Recommended time: 10 minutes What you need: Basic Catholic Prayers (page 6 in the children’s activity book) Activity Have your children turn to Basic Catholic Prayers (page 6 in the children’s activity book).
