The Communion of Saints

This is a print on demand book and is therefore non- returnable.

The communion of saints gathers a rich and diverse selection of prayers from famous people of all walks of life from the past two thousand years. Here are the prayers of such individuals as John Donne, Soren Kierkegaard, Mother Teresa, Abraham Lincoln, Ludwig van Beethoven, Michelangelo, Augustine, Martin Luther King Jr., C. S. Lewis, Anne Bradstreet, Blaise Pascal, Francis of Assisi, and many more. Diverse in intention, emphasis, style, and feeling, these prayers are grouped according to six practical classifications: "Prayers of Gratitude and Dedication," "Prayers of Confession and Penitence," "Prayers of Petition," "Prayers of Intercession," "Prayers Marking Times," and "Prayers for the Christian Year." Much more than a work of historical interest, this anthology makes an excellent tool for personal devotions, inspiring readers to deepen their own prayer lives.
