Sometimes our prayers flow easily, and we talk to God just as naturally as we would to a dear friend. But sometimes we can't find words to express our thoughts, no matter how hard we try. What can you do when you can't pray, or when you need a prayer for a specific occasion but don't know where to begin? You can turn to the prayers of other Christians to carry you into God's presence. Prayers for Life's Ordinary and Extraordinary Moments is a unique collection of prayers that give you words to pray in those times when you can't find words of your own. The honest, heartfelt prayers, written by staff members of The Upper Room and the General Board of Discipleship, address such categories as: For the People We Love Birthdays and Milestones The Cry for Justice Loss and Grief In Uncertain Times Asking for Healing Facing Our Own and Others' Imperfections Spiritual Searching Gratitude for Ordinary Miracles "Being able to pray is a privilege and a gift," Mary Lou Redding writes. "This collection is a gift to us for the times we need someone to help us say what we want to say to God." Through this book, you will learn how to touch the heart of God when you can't articulate your own prayers.

"Let's begin with prayer." Whether spoken by a student, teacher, or principal, these words signal the beginning of the school day in many Catholic schools. The ques­tion is, what comes next? Let's Begin With Prayer offers an eloquent and practical answer. 130 brief prayers specifically designed for use in Catholic junior and senior high schools are offered here, prayers that are grounded in the Catholic tradition while reflecting the concerns of today's Catholic school community. The prayers are divided into three sections. "Prayers for Holy Days and Holidays" are for the days that regularly appear on our calendars, from saints' days to national holidays. "Prayers for Special Days" address special events in the school community. Here, you'll find everything from a prayer "To Welcome New Students" to a prayer "Before a Championship Game." Of special interest here is a section of prayers for difficult occasions, such as the death of a classmate. A third section, "Prayers for Ordinary Days," offers possibilities for the average day, which is the biggest part of school life. Included here are prayers for development of Christian character, prayers for specific groups within the school community, and prayers for larger world concerns. A final section offers six full prayer services. These brief but meaningful services for occasions such as the beginning and end of the school year provide a way to gather students together for more focused attention to the spiritual dimension. Let's Begin With Prayer will be a welcome resource for anyone attempting to in­corporate regular, meaningful prayer into the hubbub of Catholic school life in Catholic junior and senior high schools.

This volume contains services of daily prayer for the full liturgical year. Especially useful for worship retreats, session meetings, and other weekday settings. The Presbyterian Supplemental Liturgical Resource (SLT) series includes liturgies that were used on a trial basis in preparation for the development of the Book of Common Worship. Though superseded by the Book of Common Worship, SLR resources remain valuable, both for the variety of liturgical texts they contain and for the commentary on the text, which contains rich historical, theological, and practical background.
