This collection of prayers richly reflects the continuing spiritual life of the first English college of the Jesuits, Stonyhurst. Some of the prayers go back to the early history of the Church; others have a close link to Stonyhurst traditions, such as the Litany of Loretto, which Thomas Weld, donor of Stonyhurst, particularly asked to be kept in use by the College; and others are written by current pupils at the College.The collection is beautifully illustrated with photographs taken by staff and pupils, creating an evocative visual souvenir as well as an aid to reflection and prayer. May 2003, publication date of this collection, also marks the bi-centenary of the restoration of the Society of Jesus in Britain at Stonyhurst in May 1803.

Rosary Album: A VISUAL AND SCRIPTURAL MEDITATION ON THE ROSARY
Michael C. Buccino
A top favorite of young children and adults! Booklet includes over 200 original black and white illustrations (one for each bead!) by the late Mr. Michael Buccino. The artist began these drawings to help his children meditate more easily on the Rosary. "I came up with the idea that if they had a book with pictures it might keep their minds on meditating while they were praying and would be better able to concentrate on the Rosary. So I got started working on the Rosary Album, which took me 18 years to put together. The book has brought the rosary to life." There is a picture and scripture verse for each bead. The Litany of Our Lady (with illustrations) is also woven into each mystery. For all ages.

The Storm Novena
St Benedict the Moor Mission
The Storm Novena, what an unusual name. The story of this novena and the instructions for offering it are to be found inside this priceless little book. As you can see from the illustration on the front over, this novena attained prominence because of the miraculous response from heaven when it was used repeatedly and prayed with great joy and fervor by an American mission to the poor colored people of Milwaukee and Chicago. Although potent for all spiritual and temporal needs, its fruitfulness is especially noted for financial and business needs. This novena is surely one of the most unusual and powerful you have ever encountered. It is typically American, and very modern. It comports well with the up-tempo pace of our lives today. If this was true in the 1940’s it is ever more so today in the 21st century. The editor and publisher of this book has personally attested to its efficacy, having had his prayers answered more than once through the intercession of the saints invoked in this novena. It is to be hoped that more people will make use of this method of storming of the gates of Heaven.

Novena to the Holy Spirit
Fr Philip G Bochanski
After Jesus’s ascension into heaven, his apostles remained nine days in Jerusalem, praying for the coming of the Holy Spirit. This has inspired the Christian ‘novena’ or nine days of fervent prayer, to prepare for major feasts or for special intentions. With St Philip Neri as our guide, we follow nine days of prayer, each linked to a fruit of the Holy Spirit: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. With down-to-earth reflections from St Philip and Cardinal Newman included, this booklet can be used at any time throughout the year.

Treatise on Prayer and Meditation
St Peter of Alcantara
In this famous Treatise, St Peter of Alcantara assists the Catholic soul to find devotion, that supernatural affection that removes distaste for spiritual effort and urges one on to serve God joyfully and genersously. St Peter made this book short and simple, yet packed into it "all that is necessary to know about prayer." It is full of saintly counsels on prayer, which is the key to the entire spiritual life. The reader of the Treatise will access the classic Catholic wisdom on mental prayer, including what to think about, how to follow a method, when to disregard a method, the importance of the heart over the head, what to do in times of spiritual dryness and much more. This introduces souls to mental prayer as a means of obtaining all spiritual goods. St Peter of Alcantara was a 16th - century Spaniard and a spiritual director of St Teresa of Avila, the great Doctor of Prayer. He was known for his severe penances and after he died, he is said to have appeared to St Teresa and exclaimed: "O blessed penance that has led me to Heaven!"

Prayer: the Heart of the Gospels
James McCaffrey, OCD
The author says: 'Praying, reading and teaching the scriptures over many years, I have discovered their supreme importance for a better and deeper understanding of the spiritual life. It is this experience that has urged me to write this book and explore the biblical foundations of the mystery of Christian prayer. What I have written here is meant as a help to discover or rediscover the riches of the gospels. In no way is it meant as a substitute for them. We can all read about prayer in a book. But what really matters is actually to pray. For this reason, the book is not intended as mere theory, nor is it a purely academic study of prayer in the gospels. Rather, it is my hope that this book will inspire the reader to persevere faithfully in the search for an ever-deeper life of communion with God, praying - and living - in the spirit of the gospels after the example of Jesus. The whole purpose of what I have written is to help others - and myself - actually to pray.' After a substantial preface on how to read the gospels, he dedicates a chapter to each of the four gospels, showing how prayer features in each and highlighting the similarities and differences which arise. The last two chapters refer to praying with The Holy Spirit and with Mary and an appendix gives an extensive list of gospel passages suitable for use as prayer starters.

Reading with God: Lectio Divina
David Foster, OSB
David Foster is a Benedictine Monk of Downside Abbey and chaplain to Downside School. He has always been concerned to bring the riches of the monastic tradition to lay people as they struggle to live the Christian life in the modern world. Lectio Divina or the art of spiritual reading is an art which is all but lost outside monastic communities. But following St Benedict's opening command in his Rule to 'listen', attending to the word of God through the printed text is an art which needs to be rediscovered in a world in which we are surrounded by a cacophony of sound and noise. David Foster has written a masterly guide to this art.

How to Pray Always
Fr Raoul Plus SJ
Helps us become better Christians by showing us how to know, to love, and to serve God, and to live prayerfully and constantly in His loving presence. This down-to-earth prayer manual dispels false notions of prayer and shows how we can pray without ceasing. Drawing on the experience of dozens of saints, Fr. Plus explains sure ways we can recollect ourselves before prayer so that once we begin to pray, our praying will be richer and more productive; he teaches us how to practice interior silence habitually, even in the rush and noise of the world; and he explains each of the kinds of prayer and shows when we should - and should not - employ each.

The Rosary in Space and Time
Ruth Rees
Part One - On Prayer Generally, Part Two - On the Rosary Specifically. "An exceptional book that on the one hand soars into timeless infinity and on the other is firmly rooted in science, history, and common sense. Prayer, as she says, is the way we transcend our own space and time, entering a new dimension that links us with God, and the rosary is an uniquely efficacious means of meditating on the life of God made man. Her book will be a great aid and encouragement to those who find it difficult to pray" - Piers Paul Read.

Prayer for Parish Groups
Donal Harrington & Julie Kavanagh
This is a book of prayer resources for parish groups. It is not a book for 'prayer groups', but a book for every parish group. Prayer is the heart of the work of any group engaged in parish ministry or parish renewal. Two short introductory chapters spell out the importance of prayer in the life of the group. They address the apprehensions that people have and offer a step-by-step guide to preparing and leading prayer at the group's meeting. The bulk of the book is made up of over 100 resource texts on a wide variety of themes, including the liturgical seasons, feasts and the seasons of nature. These resources mean that the person preparing the prayer need look no further for ideas for readings, reflections or prayers. Having chosen from these texts, he or she can then consult the guidelines, to turn the text for prayer into an experience of prayer for the group. Groups that have paid attention to prayer testify to the difference it makes. Those who are already well along the road will find this book to be a rich source of ideas and possibilities.

John Skinner
Here is an invitation to us all to step outside time, and join ourselves to the Silence that lies at the heart of the world. Through silence to enter into prayer.

John Skinner offers simple models of praying that are inviting and safe. Anyone can pray: no prayer is the same. There are no techniques, rules or strictures - an infinitely adaptable way of praying, based on a simple half hour of silence. This book provides weekly readings threaded together to provide a year-long exploration of silence. Illustrated with woodcuts by Robert Gibbings.

Mission of a Contemplative: Being a Poor Clare
Sr Clare Agnes, OSC
Two recent BBC programmes, The Convent and The Monastery, raised enormous interest in the religious life as lived out by monks and nuns today: lives of prayer, contemplation, community, work, and in a real way, 'being apart' from the world. Does such as life have any place or value in today's world? Written by one of the Poor Clare sisters who took part in the documentary, this booklet answers that and many other questions with great clarity. If Christ is as the centre of lives, whatever our calling, then our mission is to love and serve the world, humanity and those around us.
