Prayer Box: Gospel Words for Children

Introducing children to prayer with a children’s prayer box and words from the Gospel

This prayer box is designed to help children gradually develop a personal relationship with God. The words from the Gospel, chosen for their simplicity, enable children to discover Christ’s teachings with ease. Children can draw out a phrase, read it alone or with someone else, and learn to keep it in their hearts throughout the day.

A children’s prayer aid and biblical text to live out the faith in daily life

In the Catholic tradition, the reading of the Gospel is at the heart of spiritual life. This box becomes a practical tool for establishing a regular time of prayer: in the evening before bed, as a family, or during a moment of silence. It fosters listening, inner peace and the learning of trust in God, essential values passed on from a very young age.

Giving this box as a gift encourages a simple and authentic spiritual journey. It is in the spirit of Saint John Bosco, who advocated educating children through accessible and lively means. Ideal for catechism, a First Communion or a birthday, it helps children make the Word of God a practical guide in their daily lives.
