Publisher's Synopsis

The first guide to a contemplative prayer practice for children, Journey to the Heart both instructs and inspires.
 
Centering prayer is a way of opening our whole being to God, beyond thoughts, words, and emotions. It is simple and practical-a way of preparing heart and mind to receive the gift of intimate relationship with God. Jesus said, "When you pray, go to your inner room, close the door, and pray to your Father in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you." (Matthew 6:6) Frank Jelenek shows young children just how to do that!
 
The first guide of its kind for children ages 3-10, Journey to the Heart:

  • Draws children into a peaceful, quiet frame of heart with soft and beautiful illustrations
  • Lovingly instructs and inspires children, their parents, caregivers, and teachers
  • Introduces children to the joy of communicating with God in this special, intimate way
  • Makes it easy for children to share in the spiritual nourishment of centering prayer
  • Features age-appropriate text that provides clear directions and encouragement in simple, fun language
 
Ideal for ages 3 - 10, Journey to the Heart has been declared Nihil Obstat and Imprimatur by William B. Smith, S.T.D., Censor Librorum and Dennis J. Sullivan, Vicar General, Archdiocese of New York.
