Reflect
Senior executives have many challenges. Addressing them prayerfully provides leverage to address and resolve challenges successfully.
Stay Balanced
Senior citizens in retirement find that experiences can narrow. Reflecting on them provides new opportunities and renewed life.
Find Your Own Voice
If you don’t talk to God in your own language, you’ll be stuck using what others have written. Would you like to talk to God as your friend and helper?
St Ignatius reminds us to find God in all things. For myself, over the years I struggled with how to bring my spiritual and work lives together. In discussing this with fellow seekers I know I am not alone in this. These prayers are invaluable as meditations to make our work a true vocation and service to God. St. Benedict writes that "prayer is the work of God." Through these meditations may our work also be prayer in our life hour by hour. - Murray Dalziel, Dean, Merrick School of Business, University of Baltimore
Follow These Steps to Begin
The concept behind these prayer books is to dialogue with God and follow with your daily thoughts and actions. Send your prayer to Him, listen to what He has to say through scripture, reflect in silence, and then offer prayer in your own words speaking to God who is for us, with us and in us.

John Larrere creatively offers fresh insights, not just for senior citizens, in this book of prayers. His unique reflections on situations we don’t usually take time to pray about are enlightening, I especially enjoyed his piece entitled “A Prayer after a Good Homily.” John also offers an approach that I have not seen before: he offers pertinent biblical passages from the Hebrew scriptures and Christian scriptures on chosen situations. This is a welcome and accessible resource for all those looking to better connect everyday life with God. I highly recommend it. - Ed Hastings, Theologian, Villanova University.
