The Power of Prayer is an incredible presentation of Catholic Prayer,with brick-built scenes about the Saints, life-like scenes from the Bible, and all the classic prayers and devotions for Catholics.
The book is organized into:

The book is SO comprehensive, explaining the Monthly Devotions, the O Antiphons, and the Liturgical Seasons, and SO much more! In between the chapters, the Chalk Talk: Did you Know? pages feature a brick-built Bishop Fulton Sheen, and he is adorable! (Is that ok to say?)
These brick-built scenes are truly captivating for all ages. The book’s layout is stunning, utilizing a comic-style format that is visually engaging and well-organized. Articulate and straightforward, the text serves as an accessible guide for children, converts, and lifelong Catholics alike, offering a clear exploration of the ‘how’ and ‘why’ of Catholic prayer.
The Power of Prayer is an excellent Sacrament gift for 1st Reconciliation, Holy Communion or Confirmation.
The kids will dig right into NOW…and will be happy to refer to it in the years to come.
