This anthology of contemporary prayer reflects the truly ecumenical and international character of the Christian community, with prayers from more than sixty countries. A peasant from El Salvador prays in these pages alongside a businessman from the United States and a group of African mothers. The 300 prayers repesent a wide spectrum of Christian traditions, including Catholic, Orthodox, Anglican, Methodist, Reformed, and Evangelical. The themes range over life's experiences: work and rest, war and peace, family and community, grief and joy, provery and plenty, churches and nations - all find their place in this tapestry of prayer.
