Advance praise for Special Intentions
"Special Intentions reminds us of the importance of not simply
praying for what we need, but for what others need. Jesus taught us
to ask God for our daily bread, but he also asked us to love one
another. Commending our friends and families (and co-workers,
neighbors, acquaintances and even those who bother us) to the care
of God is a key aspect of that love, and an important element of
the Christian tradition.
"Claire Coleman's sensitive new work will help readers to more
fully enter into this rich stream of the spiritual life."
--James Martin S.J, author of My Life with the Saints
"If you've ever offered up a simple 'God help him' at the sight
of someone less fortunate, then this book will resonate with your
innate sense that prayers have power. Claire Coleman offers a
graceful, easy way to benefit others with her beautifully written
portraits of those in need. Take her advice, say a prayer for a
stranger and make the world a better place."
--Patricia Sheridan, Assistant Editor/Features, Pittsburgh
Post-Gazette
"While Special Intentions is a beautiful meditative book for the
person alone in prayer before God, it likely also will be will be
an inspiration for those in prayer groups, and friends who come
together to talk about their life's journeys."
--Dianne M. Traflet, J.D., S.T.D., Associate Dean, Immaculate
Conception Seminary School of Theology, Seton Hall University
"Prayer is a personal experience, but sometimes we need a little
reminder. Claire Coleman's Special Intentions is the perfect book
to keep close at hand and close to the heart to reference, to
inspire, and to share with others."
--Amelia Grey, author of twenty-three books
" The] listings of special intentions are so global and yet
personal, so ordinary and yet profound."
--Sr. Joan Noreen, OLME, co-founder and director of Our Lady's
Missionaries of the Eucharist
Host, Eucharistic Journey, Eternal World Television, (EWT)
Network
"Ms. Coleman reminds us that every one of us is, for very
different reasons, in need of prayers.... Her ability to lead us to
pray for someone we suddenly notice, think about, and then care
about--someone who we don't even know -- is truly a gift.
--Dr. Sharon Latchaw Hirsh, president, Rosemont College,
Rosemont, Pennsylvania
