Endorsements:""Lord, teach us to pray,"" Jesus disciples ask him in Lukes gospel (11.1). Their question tells me two things.All of us have the desire to pray, but prayer is an art that needs to be taught for most of us. As a parishpastor, I have observed that so many of my people either dont know how to pray or feel self-conscious whenasked to pray. So I am always on the lookout for a resource to share with them. That is where KJ Wuestcomes in with her marvelous little book, Heart Prayers. Last Christmas I gave each household in my twocongregations a copy of this book as a guide to their own prayer lives. One woman passed it on to a friendwhose daughter was diagnosed with leukemia just before Christmas. Others take it along with them whenthey take communion to our home-bound people. Another person carries a copy in her purse and refers toit often. What a great blessing KJ and her book are to those of us who are learning and practicing the art ofprayer.
