This booklet is written for everyone who is interested - even if only slightly - in prayer which brings us into contact with God. This interest may be the result of recent tragedy such as the death of a loved one or the breakdown of an important relationship. Or it may be that you're having your child baptised and you want to develop a relationship with God so that your child can enjoy a real faith. It may be that you simply feel an emptiness in your life and your distance from God is the source of that emptiness.
