The Book that every (tired) Catholic Parent Needs
Most new parents expect to lose sleep, savings, and serenity, but many don’t anticipate how their spiritual lives will be impacted by the birth of a child.
Investing in your family’s spiritual well-being before new members arrive will give you a fresh mindset for embracing your vocation and will help you to find godly purpose in the midst of the excitement to come. This is a book that will help you develop a home brimming with love, peace, and faith that will help your family get to Heaven.
The Prayer Book for Tired Parents includes relatable, real-life reflections on the struggles that parents with young children face, as well as heartwarming stories on how they can make you a stronger parent and a better Catholic. You’ll also find traditional prayers and popular devotions related to parenting, along with a list of reverent reminders to facilitate family prayer and practice of the Faith. This handy “springboard to sanctity” also includes:
- Reflection questions and tips from seasoned parents on forming children in our world of activities and technology
- Inspiration from the lives of the saints who will intercede for you in your work as parents
- Practical resources to root your family in Catholic conviction and stoke your fervor for the Faith
- Techniques for forming habits of prayer and gratitude in your daily life, individually and as a family
- Appreciable and attainable ways to cultivate charity and grow in the love of God
- Sacramental strategies for fostering virtue, combating vice, and establishing healthy routines
Like parenthood, the road to holiness is challenging and can be exhausting. However, this book will give you confidence in knowing that you have a plan of action, that you are not alone, and that countless other parents have grown in their love for God despite life’s myriad challenges.

from 6145 reviewsBeautifully constructed- sturdy! Can’t wait to hand them out to my Bible study group. What a wonderful way to honor our beloved souls!
I try to introduce a saint during each class and if a child remembers to bring their folder back each week they get a sticker on their folder. With All Saints Day coming up they contribute to the children knowing more saints. I think it's so important for them to become familiar with the saints and their lives. I know they help me.
I’ve done the indulgences the last two years. Having the cards make it so much easier. Thank you .Last year I had trouble remembering which day was for which person. I ended up placing that decision in God’s hands.
This is Grandpa's 1st Christmas in Heaven. I will be traveling to be with my Grandchildren this Christmas. The Grandchildren need to hear about the Great love of Our Father who "sets a banquet for us". Jesus said he went to "prepare a place for us", he also said "Eye has not seen & Ear has not heard what God has ready for those who Love Him". This year i will be reading this to them! Thank you!
Interesting and well written. I love these books, which give us insight into traditions all over the world, while helping to educate us on complex Catholic concepts. Bought a complete set for my church!
Love them! ;)
Fine
Am going to share with my granddaughter so she'll know to pray for me.
This is a wonderful idea!!
I purchased a pack to give to our senior altar boys. The reception, so far, has been moderately acceptable. I expect more of a response as they have an opportunity to examine them in private, especially as we get closer to All Souls Day.
Beautifully arranged and explained images, even for very young children! My three year old will pore over this book, up close and personal, for ten minutes! It doesn't sound like a long time, but very impressive for his attention span. Thank you, Holy Heroes!!!
Getting ready for All Saints/Souls days!! As St Padre Pio would say, "We got souls to get out of Purgatory". We are the Church Militant. Let's get to it!
Although this scorecard is a marvelous teaching aid for kids, I was happy to buy the two pack so my adult sister and I could use it to do the First Five Saturdays at the same time. (This way, I don't have to keep reminding her about the steps.) :)
These cards are an invaluable teaching aid, for young people, as well as adults!
Beautifully done and convenient reminders of our duty to pray for the Holy Souls in November and of the plenary indulgences available. I am giving them to my senior group at church next week.
I like the wide variety of prayers.
I’ve been going very slow through this book. Some parts feel a tiny bit condescending, but that could just be my ego being told I’m wrong 😉 overall, I think it will be a helpful tool
My kids are adults but I bought the book anyway, it just sounded so helpful. I teach religious education at my parish and thought that I might learn some things to help my students and parents develop a richer prayer life. Just started reading it but so far, it makes sense. And is written by tired parents!!
I can't wait to give it to my daughter and son-in-law. Hopefully, they'll have some time while vacationing to read it.
