Weekly Anglican prayer bead meditations to deepen your relationship with saintly Christians.
Have you ever wondered what the saints would say if they could speak to you? Saints have long been a source of inspiration and solace for Christians—from Ambrose of Milan of the early Church, to Hildegard of Bingen of the medieval period, to Frederick Douglass of abolitionist fame—but few would say they truly
know these sources of ancient wisdom. The prayers in
Song of the Saints, intended for use in conjunction with Anglican prayer beads, offer a remedy: a tried and tested prayer practice designed to bring readers into a deeper communion with the saints throughout the liturgical year.
Selected from various Christian liturgical calendars, the featured saints are accompanied by an icon-like image and a brief spiritual biography, followed by an original prayer. The words of the prayers come from the words of saints themselves, compiled from their major works, draw the reader into deeper knowledge of the saints through sustained reflection on their life and words through prayer.
