A Soul’s Response: A Prayer Companion for Catholic Moms

Moms are busy. We have a lot on our plate and the list can seem to get longer every day. As Catholic moms, we know how important our prayer life is, but sometimes it’s hard to know where to start.

Do you find yourself buying daily devotionals that you forget to read, journals that you have no time to fill, and study Bibles which are too intimidating to open?
Then this gentle prayer companion is for you. The goal is for you to read about one reflection a week, to introduce you to new prayers you may be unfamiliar with and to prompt you to closer conversations with God.

This simple prayer companion, written in conversational tone, includes 4 monthly reflections:
A Lectio Divina verse with prompts for reflection and space for journaling or drawing
A photograph of something in the natural world to prayerfully reflect on the things God has created, followed by original prayers and reflection prompts
An original poem, also followed by prayers and reflection prompts
A final closing reflection each month to consider

Suggestions of common Catholic prayer devotions are highlighted in bold text throughout.

This book is a low-stress, invitation to begin conversations with God for an already harried mom who doesn’t know where to begin. All of this with the hope that one day, prayer comes naturally, reading the Bible isn’t so intimidating, and you have found a favorite go-to devotional prayer.
