Prayer Hub
Lift UpYour Hearts
Prayer is the raising of the mind and heart to God. It is the foundation of the Christian life, the source of grace, and the path to holiness. The Catholic tradition offers a treasury of prayers handed down through the centuries, from the words of Scripture to the devotions of the saints.
Here you will find the essential prayers every Catholic should know: the Our Father taught by Christ himself, the Hail Mary honouring Our Lady, and the ancient creeds professing our faith. You will also discover devotions that have nourished generations of believers, from the Rosary to the Divine Mercy Chaplet.
Whether you seek prayers for daily life, preparation for the sacraments, or guidance in times of trial, this hub offers resources for every need. Let the words of the Church become your words, and draw ever closer to the God who longs to hear from you.
