Summary: Bouquet of Devotions to Invigorate Your Prayer Life
Comment: There's a cute story about Saint Theresa of Lisieux who complained to God about falling asleep during daily devotions at her French Carmelite convent because she apparently had trouble staying focused. "Mention Your Request Here: The Church's Most Powerful Novenas" may be the answer to Saint Theresa's plea for more spirit in daily meditations. Michael Dubruiel presents a varied bouquet of daily devotions ranging from traditional to modern petitions. Most interesting are the addresses provided for the North American shrines where the particular saints or religious orders supporting the special novenas are located. For example, I'm delighted to learn the meditations in honor of Saint Maximillan Kolbe and to learn where his shrine is located in Libertyville, Il. Traditional meditations to the Miraculous Medal are nostalgic for those who remember those continuous novenas during pre-Vatican II. Updated novenas to the French North American Martyrs and Native American Blessed Kateri Tekakwitha bring some interesting diversity to the collection as well. "Mention Your Request Here" is a delightful instructional about how to improve daily communications with God rather than a "novena book", or a ritualistic series of petitions asking for saintly favors. Indeed, Saint Theresa, the "little flower" is, quite likely, very well pleased with Dubruiel's impressive prayer collection, which, of course, includes her special devotion.

Summary: Prayers Answered!
Comment: I found the prayers in this book to be truly powerful! The information on each devotion was very helpful to me and I have personally visited several of the shrines mentioned in the book that I had not realized were so close to my home. I have one question, when will the author's next book be out?

Summary: Glad it's on my bookshelf!
Comment: This is the kind of book that comes in handy when your prayer life is on the dry side. The novenas are there for you, but you also get the benefit of the history of the devotion and the shrines connected to it. It brings a deeper dimension and fuller understanding to praying a novena. I'm glad it's on my bookshelf! I use it often. It also makes a great gift.
