The Catholic Prayer Book is offered to all who wish to deepen their relationship with God. It begins by explaining that the root of prayer lies in the covenants between God and the Human Race, starting with Adam and Eve. Prayer is our response to God's call to His people; that is, to us His children. It is a dynamic interchange of love which keeps alive the Church and her members. For those who wish to raise their minds and hearts to God, different kinds of prayer are presented, and we explore the treasury within our Catholic faith, which includes praying to Mary and to the Saints.
