Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

We went to the Shrine of the Blessed Sacrament yesterday in Hanceville, AL. In the gift shop was a book in the spirit of Dr. Seuss called "Ray Likes to Pray" by Father Fox. It is cute and all my children enjoyed it. Just thought I would post it here. The publisher is Catholic Children's Books. www.fatherfoxbooks.com. I have not been to the site, but the note in the book says they are hoping this will be the first in a series.

Ray is a turtle and one of my favorite pages is "When you pray and you pray like Ray...The Devil goes AWAY!"   There is a cute picture of a little devil (typical red with horns) running down the road with his suitcase.

God bless,

They just came out with the second book.... A friend passed a link on to me for Christian Family Outreach and they not only have some great pamphlets of basic information about the church, but a link to these books.

Kristen's family seems to have liked it, and I am curious if anyone has read the first book (and/or the second book), and their thoughts on it.

This is something I would so love to invest in if it's good.

God Bless!

Kristen,

Thank you for the book recommendation...I just ordered both of Fr. Fox's books!

And CatholicMommy, thank you for the link to Christian Family Outreach--I had never seen this site before...
