Parents, teachers, catechists and carers of young children can use this information to teach children about God, Jesus and his saints, about the church, the sacraments and ways of improving faith within our families.

When I became a mom, it was the greatest thing that happened to me. I knew right away that this little soul was a precious gift from God.

I felt like I wanted to gift my child back to God by teaching my child to love and serve God. I found this task very challenging, specially, with my own weaknesses; yet the desire and the effort was worthwhile. God is a loving Father and God helped me right along through Jesus, Mary and Joseph.

I find that now it is my mission to help young moms and dads who need help to guide their children towards God - this is why I created Family Prayer.

Who can benefit from this website?

Family Prayer is for young moms and dads, who find it challenging to bring up their children loving God, specially in today’s world where importance is given to material things, money and power. This website could also benefit grand-parents, foster parents, catechists and all carers of young children.

What type of information would I find at Family Prayer?

You will find:

• sharing of life's experiences and how we experience God in our day-to-day life
• resources on where and how to find information on prayer, faith, scripture
• common Catholic prayers and prayers in times of need
• information on meditation and contemplative prayer
• prayers for children, prayers of parents and prayers for the community
• answers to questions from children, such as, where is God? What does God look like? Is Mary the Mother of God? Why do we pray?
• the saints and their lives
• how parents could teach children about prayer, Jesus and scripture
• the church and sacraments
• ways on how we could encourage prayer within our families

The Ultimate Goal of Family Prayer is, to help young children experience God's unconditional Love for them. I hope that the information and resources we share, will help you achieve this.

Experiencing God’s love in an intimate way is the most beautiful experience one could have.

Our children need to feel that an awesome God loves them, no matter who they are or what they do; God loves them UNCONDITIONALLY. This is the biggest gift, we parents could give our children.

I invite you to be partners with me, and where ever possible to subscribe your knowledge and experiences to this website, and help our children experience God’s Love for them.

Remember to book mark www.family-prayer.org and pass the web address, to your family, friends, colleagues and community.

Thank You.

With Love and God’s Blessings,
