About the Book

We know that prayer should be like breathing - just a normal part of our daily lives. Yet, like the first disciples who asked Jesus how to pray, we need help and so do our youth. Prayers for the Classroom provides that help with structured daily communal prayers, particularly for private school teachers who want to begin class with a prayer. In keeping with the seasons, these community prayers enrich the liturgical spirit of every part of the academic year. Prayers for the Classroom incorporates the needs of the group and the social and individual character of each participant, and helps youth learn how to pray with others as well as on their own. These prayers are universal, tried and tested, touching hearts in a personal way. Celebrating diverse cultural origins, Prayers for the Classroom draws on a variety of sources, including expressions of East and West, women and men, youth and sages, biblical and non-biblical beliefs. A simple resource that encourages consistent use, Prayers for the Classroom can be used as a daily program or as an occasional prayer resource; the collection is arranged and indexed by themes so that it can be used easily either way. The format is easy to follow: it is divided into the months of the school year from September through June, with each month divided into four weeks with five distinctive prayers for each week.

Review :
. . . provides structured daily communal prayers, particularly for private school teachers who want to begin class with a prayer.Connect Prayers for the Classroom is a collection that recognizes the diversity of prayer expressions.Connect My own prayer is that [these prayers] will be used by many, that they will stimulate the minds and hearts of those who use them to a greater union with God, one that leads to the kind of spontaneous prayer that comes from the depths of the inner-self, and that they will then become like breathing, just a natural part of everyone's existence.Archbishop Rembert G. Weakland, O.S.B., from the Foreword This book inspires the reader and offers practical guideposts for daily living. It deserves to be used far beyond the classroom. It is food for all.Dr. Dale E. Turner, Seattle Times Columnist Here is a prayer book for your junior high and high schoolers that is sure to get them thinking about prayer and praying in a reflective way.Religion Teacher's Journal
