“For
me, prayer is a surge of the heart; it is a simple look turned toward
heaven, it is a cry of recognition and of love, embracing both trial and
joy.”-St. Thérèse of
Lisieux
"Prayer is the raising
of one’s mind and heart to God or the requesting of good things from
God.”-St. John Damascene
“God
tirelessly calls each person to this mysterious encounter with Himself.Prayer unfolds throughout the whole history of salvation as a
reciprocal call between God and man.”-2591 Catechism of the Catholic Church
