Annalisa Boyd explains: “Like the ascetics, mothers find themselves in a situation that requires their utter devotion, self-denial, daily emotional exercises, facing extreme challe nges, and much prayer.” Motherhood includes many challenges, joys, and potential for spiritual growth. In this prayer book Orthodox mothers will find encouraging passages from the Holy Scriptures, the holy Fathers and prayers for every situation. A wide selection of prayers is offered for mothers to use to intercede for their families as well as to grow in virtue themselves. Show more
