Perhaps there is no greater gift we can give our grandchildren than the gift of our prayers. As grandparents we can help the life of grace flourish within their souls in praying fervently for them, aiding God in transforming them into the persons He desires them to be. Prayer is powerful. We marvel at how the prayers of Saint Monica, mother of her wayward son, Augustine, worked in conjunction with the Holy Spirit to bring him back to the ways of the Lord and put him on the road to sainthood. We treasure the witness of Saints Louis and Zelie Martin, parents of Saint Therese of Lisieux, who lived their lives as a prayer to God and passionately prayed for their daughters, who all entered the religious life and lived extraordinarily faithful lives. Allow this simple prayer guide and journal to give you the motivation and tools you need to make praying for your children a priority this year-and always. This beautifully simple prayer journal contains - 52 unique special intentions for your grandchild(ren), one on each page - Scripture verses and quotes to reflect on - Space for writing specific intentions and spiritual bouquets you want to offer for your grandchild(ren) - Recommendations for how to use the journal and prayer ideas A single journal can be used to pray for all of your grandchildren or multiple can be purchased so you can devote one journal for each grandchild. It is also designed to be gifted to the grandchild, if the grandparent chooses to, or it can remain a private prayer diary for the grandparent. "In the family of prayer, in strong moments and in difficult periods, may we be entrusted to one another, in order that every one of us in the family may be protected by God's love." -Pope Francis Other spiritual life and family prayer resources can be found at CatholicKatie.com.
