A SMALL CORNER FOR PRAYER
The Family Altar Kit
A printable kit you can stick on a kitchen door, a children's wall, or carry in a folder. Six pages of small things to keep the household praying together.
1 · The Lord's Prayer (KJV)
The prayer Jesus taught his disciples. Printed in large, gentle type so a child can read it aloud at the table.
Matthew 6:9-13
2 · The Family Covenant
Ten short vows for the household — read together, signed if you wish, kept where the children can see them. Read the covenant.
3 · Verse of the Week
A blank panel to write in the family's verse for the week. A small marker. The children can decorate the corners.
4 · A Candle to Color
A simple line drawing of a candle. The children color it. Stick it where the household prays. A reminder that Christ is the light of every room.
5 · A Morning Prayer Card
Short enough to say while pouring coffee. Long enough to settle the heart for the day.
6 · A Benediction at Bedtime
The Aaronic blessing — words a parent can say over a child every night. The same blessing that has crossed every bed of every saint for three thousand years.
Numbers 6:24-26
Print at home. Fold once. Stick on the fridge.
"But as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD." — Joshua 24:15 (KJV)
