*Kindle your prayer life, better utilize your talents, and order your priorities

Fr. Menezes also incorporates key traditional prayers and litanies for weekly devotions and provides helpful cross-references for personal and group use. This daily spiritual manual will help you grow in knowledge of your faith and gain strength for spiritual battle to more fully become the man you were created and called to be.
