Oremus: A Catholic Prayer Book for Children and Families

Introduce young Catholics to the timeless beauty of traditional prayer.
Oremus, Latin for “Let us pray,” is a reverent and beautifully designed Catholic prayer book featuring essential prayers of the Church in both Latin and English. This book is an ideal resource for parishes, schools, and families seeking to form children in the richness of the Church’s liturgical tradition.

Oremus includes beloved prayers such as:

• The Sign of the Cross

• The Apostles’ Creed

• The Our Father (Pater Noster)

• The Hail Mary (Ave Maria)

• The Act of Contrition

• And many more foundational Catholic prayers

In Oremus—Latin for “let us pray”, prayers from the Mass and other beloved Catholic prayers, in both English and Latin, are accompanied by master copies of some of the Church's most beautiful artwork. 

Young Catholics will learn to pray in the language which Pope Saint John Paul II said elicits “a profound sense of the Eucharistic Mystery” while exploring, reflecting on, and being inspired by studies of masterpieces of Christian art, from Fra Angelico to Bouguereau.  This stunning compendium is an invaluable resource for young Catholics to use both at Mass and at home.
