The Ave Treasury of Catholic Prayers is an indispensable keepsake collection of classic and contemporary prayers that every Catholic should know.
This timeless resource gathers a wide range of devotions, psalms, and litanies that reflect the beauty and diversity of the Church’s prayer tradition over more than two thousand years.
The hardcover, full-color volume includes both beloved favorites and prayers that will become familiar through continued devotion, such as:
-
Essential prayers, including the Our Father, Hail Mary, the creeds, and the Confiteor
-
Prayers for speaking with God throughout the day
-
Prayers for the Sacraments of Reconciliation and Holy Communion
-
Devotions and consecrations to Jesus, Mary, and Joseph
-
Prayers from the saints that correspond to the five forms of prayer in the Catechism of the Catholic Church: blessing, petition, intercession, thanksgiving, and praise
Elegant vintage lithographs and engravings, drawn from traditional prayer books, psalters, and Bibles, complement the text in a beautiful contemporary design. An index allows readers to locate prayers by saint or topic of devotion.
