A Book of Advent and Christmas Prayers

by William G. Storey

Overview

Our spiritual lives can easily suffer amid the chaos of the Christmas Season if we don’t take time to quiet our hearts and reflect on God becoming human. A Book of Advent and Christmas Prayers by William G. Storey is a much-needed solution to this perennial problem. A concise yet comprehensive collection of Advent and Christmas prayers, this book is uniquely organized around the story of the Incarnation, beginning with the Immaculate Conception of Mary and continuing all the way through Jesus’ appearance in the Temple at age 12.

Divided into three main sections—Prayers for Christmas and Advent, Devotions for Advent, and Devotions for Christmastide—Storey includes many deeply meaningful yet virtually unknown ancient prayers of the Church, some of them translated into contemporary language for the first time.
