Lesson 11

Forms of Prayer

In this lesson, your children will learn that, in Scripture, we find five forms of prayer: blessing and adoration, petition, intercession, thanksgiving, and praise. They will also learn that the Eucharist expresses all forms of prayer. There is no better way of offering our hearts to God than by inviting Jesus into our hearts in the Blessed Sacrament.
