Coming May 14, 2021, from Our Sunday Visitor: The Handy Little Guide to Prayer
God knows what’s on our minds and in our hearts, but we still need to verbalize our innermost thoughts, feelings, and intentions. That’s prayer.
In this easy-to-read, down-to-earth introduction to conversation with God, you’ll discover, or rediscover, what you need to be able to “pray without ceasing.”
In this brief booklet, author, mom, wife, and Secular Franciscan Barb Szyszkiewicz helps you strengthen your connection to God through prayer. You’ll learn:
- How to pray alone and establish an intimate connection with God
- How to pray with the whole Church
- What the saints teach us about prayer
- When to pray, including formal and informal times for prayer
- Many different styles and methods of prayer, including the prayers of the Church, adoration, meditation, music, art, and journaling.
Your connection to God in prayer can happen anywhere, at any time. No special equipment is needed; no dress code, no reservation required, no admission fee. All you need is an open heart and a willingness to engage with our Creator.
This booklet has an Imprimatur and Nihil Obstat.
Available for purchase at these booksellers – or order from your favorite Catholic shop!

Hi, I foundnyour site from your essay on Mary in Word by Word. I’d like to have my Amazon contribute to your site. What is the title of the site? (When I put in Franciscan Mom, Amazon did not have it listed.)
Thank you. Peace!
