Children’s Daily Prayer 2008-2009
by Suzanne Lewis

 Children’s Daily Prayer is a lovely, step-by-step method for praying every day of the school year. At its heart is a simple order of prayer easily led by a student. This is the Church’s ancient way to begin the day. This volume of LTP’s popular annual resource for praying in the classroom has everything you need to pray on a given day found on one page!

This great catechetical tool features:

  • a clear, easy-to-follow format
  • prayer for every day of the school year with the reading for the day
  • an opening that explains the readings, describes its background, defines difficult vocabulary, and highlights feasts of the day
  • a psalm with responses that may be photocopied
  • prayer services for feasts and special occasions
  • additional psalms and canticles
  • and a new feature called "Also on this Day" indicates secular holidays and major observances of other religions

These features help you deepen and enrich classroom prayer. There is also a teacher’s introduction that offers insights into how children pray and how to pray with them. Seasonal introductions explain the liturgical seasons and suggest how to create conducive environments for the season’s prayer.

Year of Grace Liturgical Calendar 2009 Poster Paper
Artist: Tracy Walker

This vibrantly illustrated circle-of-the-year Catholic liturgical calendar depicts in its corners prophetic vision of the kingdom of God and in the center, the restoration of the kingdom promised us by Christ. The calendar begins the First Sunday of Advent and presents all the Sundays and weekdays of the liturgical year for 2009. The Sundays of the year form the outer circle, and each spoke of the wheel represents a week. The seasons are defined by colors and weekdays are marked with seasons, solemnities, feasts, fast days, and memorials of the saints.

On the back of the calendar you will find a guide to using the calendar, general information about the liturgical year, and information about the art and artist. This information is also available through a PDF file on this Web site. Calendars are even available in both in English and Spanish!

Use the Year of Grace Calendars in many ways:

  • give (or sell) one to every household in the parish and school
  • hang a poster calendar in every classroom to teach about the liturgical year
  • have students report on the significance of various liturgical days
  • present calendars to first communicants and Confirmation candidates
  • adorn the church vestibule and gathering space with a poster calendar
  • spruce up the teacher's lounge, offices, and other public areas in the school while helping everyone who enters remember the importance of the liturgical year!

Living Liturgy: Year B 
Spirituality, Celebration, and Catechesis for Sundays and Solemnities

Joyce Ann Zimmerman, C.PP.S., Thomas A. Greisen, Kathleen Harmon, S.N.D. de N., and Thomas L. Leclerc
An annual resource for parish ministers, liturgists, and planning committees, Living Liturgy offers a practical means for reflecting on, celebrating, and living the paschal mystery. Completely revised, Living Liturgy, Year B (2003) now includes the new weekday Lectionary readings, an updated page format, and new clip art throughout.

Living Liturgy integrates spirituality and celebration, catechesis and pastoral practice, the ministry of the assembly and other ministries so that celebrating and living go hand-in-hand. Written by a pastorally experienced team with expertise in Scripture, spiritual direction, liturgy, and liturgical music, Living Liturgy emulates the reality of our Christian communities: that we learn from each other of the fullness of God’s mystery and by learning together we enrich each other.

Living Liturgy is beneficial for a wide spectrum of members of a liturgical community, each having a personal copy so they might refer to it when preparing for the Sunday liturgy. Parents and teachers may simplify its content and share it with younger members of the community. Members of faith-sharing groups, liturgy planning committees, and RCIA catechumens, candidates, and sponsors will find it useful as the focus of weekly prayer and reflection.

The mystery of God’s salvific action is vast, and we are privileged to share in the unfolding of these great events. Living Liturgy shows that who we are and how we live has a profound affect on those around us. We can spend time doing no more important a thing than intensifying our spirituality based on praying and reflecting on God’s Word, celebrating the paschal mystery, and catechizing ourselves and others in God’s ways. When we do so, we are, living liturgy. (Item #89073) $15.95
