Lesson 13: Prayer and the Communcion of Saints
The aim of this lesson is for your children to discover that one of our greatest aids to prayer is to read the lives and writings of the saints. Their lives inspire us to lead holy lives, and their instructions can guide us on how to develop our prayer lives. The Church recognizes the saints in Heaven because they lived lives of heroic virtue—lives that should inspire us to imitate them. We know they are holy because they are in Heaven, and the way that they achieved this holiness was through an intimate life of prayer with God.
