Winner of the 2017 Catholic Press Association Book Award: Collections of Prayers (First Place).

Are you a Catholic mom who prays for the wisdom and patience to get through each day? Do you pray for your children, husband, family and friends, and sometimes even yourself? The Catholic Mom’s Prayer Companion offers a new, daily resource to make the most of those few, precious minutes you have to pause and reflect.

For more than fifteen years, the award-winning CatholicMom.com website has been a trusted source for sound, practical, and spiritual guidance. In their new book, authors Lisa M. Hendey and Sarah A. Reinhard bring together more than eighty moms, dads, and trusted spiritual companions to provide fresh, uplifting meditations for every day of the year. You’ll find encouragement when you’re struggling, reassurance when you feel alone, and comfort when you’re distracted by worry.

Created by moms for moms, these hope-filled meditations touch on the issues and concerns you face as you try to get through the day with a sense of God’s presence in your life. Whether you are a new or seasoned mom working in or outside of your home, this inspiring collection of reflections for every day of the year will help you

stay in touch with the seasons of the Church year;
remember Mary’s loving presence on her feast days;
keep company with both new and familiar saints;
see the spiritual meaning of secular holidays; and
make you smile with occasions such as Houseplant Appreciation Day and National Popcorn Day.

Each day begins with a brief quotation from scripture, saints, recent popes, or important spiritual writers. A personal reflection—written by contributors including Danielle Bean, Donna-Marie Cooper O’Boyle, Lisa Mladinich, Elizabeth Scalia, Carolyn Woo, Mark Hart, and Jeff Young—focuses on some dimension of your spiritual, emotional, intellectual, or physical life. Each day also includes a brief prayer and a question or thought to ponder throughout the day.

In just a few minutes of quiet you’ll find the boost you need from a friendly voice. Each month also has a special theme such as love, family fun, and slowing down. Start these reflections any time throughout the year and feel your days become more grace-filled and inspired.

Award-Winning Book

First place winner of the 2017 Catholic Press Association Book Awards in the category: Collections of Prayers.

Example Prayer: The Grace of This Season

Creator, who brings forth each new season, Bring us to new life, not merely a repetition of another cycle. Help us find the rhythm of our flow and to know its source.

To Ponder: Is this time of year just about resetting our clocks or cleaning our houses for the next season? Or can we take the time to embrace the grace of now in the true spirit of renewal, which is the fullness of new life?

Example Prayer: Frank Conversations With God

Lord, give me the gift to see myself as a woman of prayer. Give me that determination and desire for intimacy with you that will nourish me for holiness of life.

To Ponder: What does holiness mean to you? Have you begun this journey?

Be kind and do good works!

Excellent prayer companion- or in my case, prayer encouragement! I look forward to it every day and recommend it for any Catholic woman, or mother- especially those who need something to jump start their daily prayers! Someone reviewed it as being “not Catholic”- and I understand that there is a contingent of “church militant” people in the church, but although I am a Church Catholic, I am more of a Christ Catholic. The Church does not call for anger or judgement from ANY Catholic- not toward anyone. Love God, love Christ, ask for the intercession of Saints - especially Mary, His holy mother. Be good, do good. My goal is to be a great Catholic, and this book is helping me on that road!

I was very anxious to get this book and it is so much more than I expected. The daily reflection really centers and grounds me for the day. If you need encouragement for the day, this is the book to get! It is not only for moms, but aunts, sisters, grandmothers, stepmothers, etc. It is really for women. Thanks again Lisa Hendey!

Great for busy moms

Reviewed in the United States on January 5, 2019

Verified Purchase

Initially I thought the entires were too short and not as substantive as I would’ve liked. However, once we began homeschooling, I realized that I didn’t have an hour to sit and read. Heck, sometimes I don’t even have 5 minutes. This book is great for busy moms. It gives you an opportunity to read and posit a question or two throughout the day. I find, that starting my day with the prayer companion, helps ensure I have a more peaceful and joyful day.

I love this book

Reviewed in the United States on February 4, 2017

I love this book. It's beautiful inside and out. The reflections are short, but dead on. The short prayer suggestions are great, too. My favorite part, though, are the quotes that start each reflection. They're showing me other sides of saints I love and introducing me to new ones!

A down-to-earth devotional for busy Catholic moms!

Reviewed in the United States on January 18, 2017

Verified Purchase

Even the busiest Moms can find 5 minutes during the day to read these daily spiritual, encouraging and motivating reflections. Very down-to-earth and approachable devotions not only for any Catholic Mom but for any Catholic woman! I highly recommend - I purchased one for myself then gifted a copy to my son's Godmother! This would also make an excellent gift for Mother's Day, Grandmother's Day or your child's female Catholic faith-formation teacher.

It's My New Best Friend...

Reviewed in the United States on January 26, 2017

This book is such a joy. As mamas, we set goals to have devotion time, but if the devotion is too long, the interruptions come before we can spend even a moment with Our Lord.
This prayer companion is packed with real life devotions we all can relate to.
I can not tell you how much I am enjoying it and it's just the month of January.
Great job Lisa and all you other writers.
Quick. Easy to read. Meaningful. Life Changing...

Not centered on momhood

Reviewed in the United States on September 4, 2019

Verified Purchase

Catholic mom here. That’s why I chose this book. I’ve got two toddlers at home that test my patience daily and cause me to look at tasks differently (use to be easy, but now are a struggle). I’ve read about ten days worth and am disappointed with the daily devotions. They often are not related to momhood. I wanted this to help my faith grow as I struggle with raising kids, and it fell short.

Wonderful Book, Perfect Daily Companion

Reviewed in the United States on November 5, 2019

I have been looking for a morning prayer companion for a while and decided to try this book based purely on reviews and research - it is absolutely perfect! I look forward to reading it every morning - the messages are so beautifully adapted to the life of a mother but are also universal and truly apply to all parts of a woman’s life. I love that the messages are date specific - it helps me follow along and stay on track.
