May I share my favorite prayers:
Soul of Christ ( BUT I’ve changed all the “me” to “us”. Soul of Christ, sanctify us…)
and I always end this prayer after Holy Communion with “Most Sacred Heart of Jesus may the whole world burn with love for you!”
Prayer of Pope Clement XI
Litany of Humility
The Angelus
Prayer to St Michael the Archangel
Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen’s prayer, “Jesus, Mary, and Joseph, I love you so very much, Spare the lives of the unborn babies for whom we pray. We adopt them spiritually and pray, save them from abortion.”
And ALWAYS! A prayer for Vocations!! WHERE WOULD WE BE WITHOUT OUR PRIESTS AND CONSECRATED PERSONS?!

Dear Muthoni in Christ,

Here is a link for the audio rosary in latin… http://rickmk.com/rmk/Rosary/index.html

I have a paper that has christian prayers. What I like best about it is that the prayers are both in English and latin. There are quite a number of prayers including psalms 2, Adoro te Devote, and Canticle of the three children, psalms 150 and the Quicumque.

While you are at, I have for many years been looking for a tape, CD or anything that has the audio prayer of the Holy Rosary in Latin, – can this be done?

Also make sure that those outside the US are able to purchase the new prayer book.

Muthoni, Nairobi, Kenya

Hello,

First, the book should be thin, pocket size, multicolor print (not just black type on white paper), and have a book marker.

Second, there needs to be prayers for families, husbands, wives, children, and our Church.

While it’s probable that the Rosary prayers would be included, I would like to see the virtues of each mystery listed. I do not know if these were established by the Church or if I just found them through my PDA Rosary App(www.virtualrosary.org).
For example, the virtues of the Joyful Mysteries are:
1.The Annunciation – the virtue of Humility
2.The Visitation – the virtue of Charity
3.The Nativity – the virtue of Poverty
4.The Presentation in the Temple – the virtue of Obedience
5.The Finding in the Temple – the virtue of Piety
Thank you.

My favorite prayer book is entitled, “My Prayer Book” by Father Lasance. It has really changed my prayer life. I take it with me to aid in my devotion to Holy Mass in the Ordinary Form. It is full of material for meditations. My favorite prayer is “A Universal Prayer for all things Necessary to Salvation” I like the Father Lasance prayer book at the Novus Ordo because it helps me to include many of the devotions before and after Mass in the Traditional Rite.

It would be very nice to have a prayer book that flowed with the monmths and seasons so that we can easily incorporate different Catholic prayers traditions into our families.

For example, in the Spring you could have the Stations of the Cross, Easter time prayers and in the month of May special Marian prayers. ~ This is just off the top of my head ~ But, a prayer book that flows with the liturgical year and special feast days would bem very original and a great resource.

Also, any helpful tips for celebrating and teaching traditions would be nice. This is how culture is learned.
