Here is a collection of read-aloud, read-together prayers that will draw close friends even closer---to each other, to God, and to the fascinating authors of these prayers.

In a brief foreword, Madeleine L'Engle and Luci Shaw talk about the prayers they offer and reflect on the experience of prayer in their lives and in their friendship. Then, successive page spreads feature prayers from both authors about a specific topic or for a special occasion. The prayers are interactive---voices responding to each other, praying for each other, praying together---and designed to be prayed aloud, together, by spiritual friends. With the prayers, L'Engle and Shaw suggest settings that might enhance the experience.

Topics and occasions for the prayers are as universal as the experiences of all friends. The prayers themselves are as unique as the personalities and experiences of the partners who wrote the book and those who use it.

This is a book that will build prayer and friendships---a perfect gift for friends to share.
