Anne Kitch weaves 'common' prayers and canticles into a texture of sacred time, space and place that is exceedingly relevant and important to the development of faith formation in the home. At a time when we need to get back to the basics, this book provides an orientation to prayer for daily life that is centered in tradition and orients us to joy."--The Rev. Robyn Szoke, Staff Officer for Children's Ministries and Christian Education, The Episcopal Church Center"Anne Kitch has crafted a jewel-like book. Its facets are fashioned from personal narrative, classical prayers, useful advice and lovely illustrations. It has a timeless quality appropriate for prayer and it does a little jig now and then just to let you know that prayer is for fun as well as when life overwhelms our everyday words. This book is more than a collection of prayers. It opens up the way to pray life, rounding the year and dwelling in each day. Read it for yourself. Use it to guide your children. They will memorize more than we can remember before they know they are doing it."--Jerome W. Berryman, Center for the Theology of Childhood"In The Anglican Family Prayer Book, Anne Kitch has given us an indispensable companion to the Book of Common Prayer, providing entry into it for those who may be unfamiliar with its use, and at the same time, supplementing it with delightful prayers and engaging rituals particularly suited to households with children. The gentle narrative guides, explains, and encourages family members to pray together without awkwardness in ways that are both traditional and creative, and which include people of all age, from toddler to grandparent. While geared primarily toward Episcopalians, this gem of a book is a perfect gift for any Christian household."--The Rt. Rev. Catherine S. Roskam, Bishop Suffragan of New York

Inner Traditions Bear and Company The Fourteen Holy Helpers: Invocations for
Book SynopsisA step-by-step guide to calling on the Fourteen Holy Helpers for healing, success, guidance, and love • Shares modern updated versions of the medieval prayers of the Holy Helpers, one prayer for each of the 14 saints and one prayer to call on all of them together • Explains how, even though these 14 saints are connected to Catholic belief, they are universal in their powers of assistance and will come to the aid of anyone who calls on them • Recommends a healing stone to enhance the effect of each prayer and explains how to use the prayers to create protective amulets for you and your home and write a letter of invocation for love and success The art of invocation--calling on spirits and higher forces for assistance--has been practiced in folk magic traditions for centuries, with roots going back to early pagan and shamanic times. Called on for more than 1,000 years, the Fourteen Holy Helpers are a group of Catholic saints venerated together because their intercession has been shown to be particularly effective in difficult times. Although they are part of the Christian tradition, these spiritual helpers are universal in their powers of assistance and will come to the aid of anyone who calls on them. In this guide to invoking the Fourteen Holy Helpers, Christiane Stamm presents modern updated versions of the medieval prayers of the Holy Helpers, which were transmitted to her directly from the spirit world. She explains how, even though these 14 saints are connected to Catholic belief, their invoked powers connect to the original energies dwelling within humans and the Earth and calling on them works as a form of natural magic. She shares short biographies of each saint and details how to access their powers of healing and protection through writing out and reciting their specific prayers during the full moon. The author shares 15 prayers--one for each Holy Helper, used to support healing for specific ailments or issues, and one prayer that is especially powerful because it calls on all 14 Helpers together. For each prayer she recommends a healing stone that can be added to further enhance the effect. The author also explains how to use the prayers to create protective amulets for you and your home and write a letter of invocation for love and success. Offering a step-by-step method to call for spiritual assistance, this book helps us realize the profound power of prayer and belief and reveals how magic still exists in our modern world.Table of ContentsMy mission Do you want to be healthy?

Academic Studies Press Siddur Hatefillah: The Jewish Prayer Book.
Book SynopsisHebrew University Professor Emeritus and Israel Prize recipient Eliezer Schweid (1929-2022) is widely regarded as one of the greatest historians of Jewish thought of our era. In Siddur Hatefillah, he probes the Jewish prayer book as a reflection of Judaism's unity and continuity as a unique spiritual entity; and as the most popular, most uttered, and internalized text of the Jewish people. Schweid explores texts which process religious philosophical teaching into the language of prayer, and/or express philosophical ideas in prayer’s special language – which the worshipper reflects upon in order to direct prayer, and through which flows hoped-for feedback. With the addition of historical, philological, and literary contexts, the study provides the reader with first-time access to the comprehensive meaning of Jewish prayer—filling a vacuum in both the experience and scholarship of Jewish worship.Table of ContentsTranslator’s AcknowledgementsTranslator’s Introduction: Eliezer Schweid as Worshipper in the State of IsraelAuthor’s Preface: My Path to the Jewish Prayer Book (Siddur Hatefillah)Introduction: The Siddur (Jewish Prayer Book): Its Sources, Goal, and Theological Basis Worship of God and the Process of the Sacred Congregation’s Formation and Expression Prayer as a Form of Primal Expression of the Human Soul Torah and Prayer: The Problem of Love and Sin in the Relations between God and the Human Being The “Name and Kingship” Blessing as the Fundamental Rubric of Standing before God in Prayer Establishing the Covenant of Faith between the Individual Human Being and His God Principles of Faith Keriyat Shema—Covenant of Love between God and His People The Poetics of the Shema and the Shemoneh Esrei The Shemoneh Esrei Prayer: The Kedushah (Sanctification) and Ḥaninat Hada’at (God as Giver of Knowledge) The Shemoneh Esrei Prayer—Requests by the Individual in the Assembly: Teshuvah (Repentance) and Forgiveness The Shemoneh Esrei Prayer: Redemption, Healing, and Livelihood The Shemoneh Esrei (Eighteen Benedictions) That Are Really Nineteen: Redemption from Deepening Exile The Shemoneh Esrei—Responding in Anticipation of Complete Redemption Types of Biblical Poetry as a Source of Prayer Between the Poetry of Prophecy and Prayer The Poetry of the Psalms: Personal-Soulful and Societal-Political Messages Hymnal Song for the Sabbath Day.

"We are called to name the extravagant wildness of God, the overflowing abundance of creation, and the deep aching need of a broken world in new words and images that speak to contemporary concerns.... [These prayers] are an invitation to pray boldly." —from the Introduction This special prayerbook is for today's Christians who find comfort in the rhythm of the traditional lectionary but long to connect with God in ways that are satisfying to the modern heart and mind.

Inspiring words help us give thanks for human inventions and lament the evils of poverty, violence and oppression of all kinds while remaining mindful of God's promises of healing for a broken world.
