Praying With The Saints For Girls
An incredibly meaningful and lovely First Holy Communion gift for the young ladies in your life!
The Saints Can Teach Us To Pray
The Saints intercede for us--and they show us how to live holy lives. The Saints teach us to obey God’s will, to suffer with love, and to remain faithful to God no matter what.
But…HOW did they do these things?
THEY BECOME HOLY THROUGH PRAYER.
Living like the Saints starts and ends with prayer.
And so, let’s explore HOW the Saints prayed. What were their favorite prayers? What prayers did they return to and rely on? How did these prayers fit their personalities and serve their unique lives?
Written for Girls
Boys and girls are different.
Although still developing in girls, the feminine genius differs from the masculine genius. God created men and women to complement each other, not to be the same and certainly not to compete with each other.
Therefore, it is our duty as parents and Godparents to cultivate genuine and holy femininity in our young women.
Praying with the Saints for Girls features only female Saints.
It is our hope that this all-star cast of heroic Catholic women will help girls see what holiness looks like for women, whether they are called to serve God in religious life or through the vocation of motherhood.
God created women to be receptive, generous, sensitive, and maternal.
These characteristics are written on the bodies and souls of women. However, women can only live as they were created to live if they are connected to their Creator.
And we connect to our Creator through prayer.
Praying with the Saints for Girls shares the stories of 20 heroic Catholic Women. Following a brief biography, the book explores one way this heroic woman connected to God through prayer. Then, the girl reading the book is challenged to explore and possibly adopt this method of prayer.
