"Ask and you shall receive; seek and you shall find. Knock and the door will be opened to you."

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx-
-- Matthew 7:7


xxxxx As Catholics, we recognize that each of us is charged with the privledge of offering personal and continuous prayer to God. Prayers and Devotions is a resource for anyone who desires to pray to God and is looking for the words of expression to do so. These pages are devoted to that bond of prayer that joins the daily prayers of the individual Catholic to the prayers of our Sunday Liturgy. It is a bond that exists between Roman Catholics of every description, the bond to other Christians and in many ways, to the Jews from whom we have learned so much of our prayer.
xxxxxContained in these pages of our website are some of the most familiar Catholic prayers, forming the basis of many of the daily and seasonal prayers of individual Christians and their families. Many of the
prayers here also appear alongside their original, traditional Latin form. Here are some of the most sacred, beautiful, and treasured prayers in the Catholic faith, and we hope they may more fully enrich your own prayer life and faith experience.
