At the core of a Christian's spiritual life lies a deep and fundamental commitment to a robust cycle of prayer and contemplation. Pray for Justice links the two in a masterful re-working of the Liturgy of Hours. A welcome resource for anyone who takes the intersection of prayer and social justice seriously.\u003cbr\u003e Bro. Mark Elliott Newman, OC\u003cbr\u003e Servant Leader Emeritus, Ecumenical Order of Charity\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Lou Bordisso's new book is a helpful guide to accompany one's prayer life. Reading Lou's powerful quotes from saints and holy figures throughout history will no doubt inspire you, and his inclusion of a journal will challenge you to model your life on these great figures.\u003cbr\u003e Ryan Hall from Pace e Bene Nonviolence Service\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Lou Bordisso's short book takes the very traditional prayers of Catholic monastics and partners them with nuggets from the great saints on the issues of peace and justice, creates a morning and evening ritual that, when followed as he instructs, amounts to a mini thirty day retreat in the world. It offers a disciple, a routine, a ritual that can re-focus and dedicate our days, pointing them in the direction that we would have them go. Having witnessed the happiness and presence of mind that Lou brings to his ministry at The Gubbio Project and the joy that he exudes among our homeless guests, I can say that, if in this book he is sharing his daily prayer practice, we can't go wrong seeing how these prayer practices might help draw us closer to God and the people that we want to be in the world.\u003cbr\u003e Laura Slattery, Executive Director of The Gubbio Project\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 150\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.35 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 01, 2016\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51495866335520,"sku":"9781944769406","price":28.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0993\/3678\/2112\/files\/efaeadb186c015bf87f751d257dd57f5.webp?v=1776529930","url":"https:\/\/treewee.store\/products\/pray-for-justice-thirty-days-of-morning-evening-prayer-for-catholics-and-other-peaceful-people-paperback","provider":"Tree of Life","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
