Catholic Prayers for all occasions

This compilation includes those along with some modern (and often very personal) examples of the form. There are prayers for specific times of days, for specific events, seasons and people, prayers for peace and for the unfortunate and disadvantaged. Prayers written by saints and cardinals - and just ordinary people. There is a prayer here for everyone - and certainly one for you and your needs.

The prayer as a form of worship has been around for literally thousands of years. The Assyrians and Babylonians made prayers to their early pagan gods 5,000 years ago and the Jews prayed to Jehovah nearly 4,000 years ago. This book is concerned with Christian, and specifically Catholic, prayers. These derive from sources as old as the Bible and as recent as Pope John Paul II who was a prolific composer. Many prayers were devised by people whose authorship is lost in the mists of time.
